Jason Tatum (with the help of Kobe) will remind us of the Celtics for many years to come...



Until he leaves in 2025 to join his childhood dream team

Emeka Okafor is available...just saying. He could be a decent enough backup C for us if he's only playing 15mpg.


He may literally fall apart trying to keep pace with these guys.

Not the worst thing ever.

Not the only good team make questionable FA decisions . Still too early for both teams even after the results of the game tomorrow.

Another possible hint that KD loves the Lakers spotlight and is gonna consider us in FA because of it

https://www.google.com/amp/s/clutchpoints.com/nba-news-kevin-durant-reacts-chris-webber-announcing-during-lebron-james-debut-lakers-vs-blazers/amp/

I think we have a very good chance to get him next summer especially if some kind of drama unfolds with the Warriors.

I can, we have a max slot, and he bought up Chris Webber announcing a Lakers game featuring LeBron and we all know he is very close with him.

For those who don’t know we supposedly were interested in Jabari Parker during FA..

Not sure if he was worth it but he probably would have come here if we offered him a good contract..

Gotta say if there's one thing that may influence AD's decision about staying with the Pelicans long term is empty seats. Home game with an MVP candidate and there's plenty of empty seats.

Yeah, pelicans look good out of the gate. Playing good basketball, with a ton of empty seats in the arena. Must be more of a football town.

I remember when the Hawks were contenders in the EC and the arena always seemed empty, I think that might have played a part in Horford deciding to leave Atlanta.

Dodged a bullet there. I'd rather have Kuz get those minutes and shots

Pretty interesting news we did not know about

If we didn’t go for the LBJ route, I wanted to sign Jabari Parker, Elfrid Payton, Hezonja, Noel and resign Randle.
Ball, Payton
Hezonja, Hart
Ingram, Parker
Kuzma, Wagner
Randle, Noel
Vet: Bellineli, Lopez

Would have been a good team

I would take the best player on the planet with championship mentality. not role players who don’t move the needle when it comes to wins.

Jimmy Butler still playing his heart out even though a trade is inevitable, that is someone I would want on my team.

Mediocre 3pt shooting ball dominance.

I think there's a good chance Kawhi stays in Toronto. That team is looking super solid with him in the fold. Either way great gamble for Ujiri; they'll make a compelling case for KL to stay.
