Asik + Casspi heading our way

[MichaelMcNamara]

Not trying to debate, what your opinion. With all that happened last year with Evans struggling off the bench you really expect us to still start Gordon? I'd also bet $$$ that Young makes the team. Dude is very underrated.

I think this will be a HUGE topic of discussion over the next 3 months. But yes, at the end of the day I think Gordon starts

[Mythrol]

Casspi was listed in the RLE range of SFs in MM's list and going over all in that range he was my top choice. Ahead of Hamilton and CDR. I'm very happy about this.

I also have to assume Ajinca is gone. He just makes too much sense for. Houston. They need a backup C and he's cheap and fits the bill.

[Kibner]

Also don't think Rivers is a PG, head down all time.

[RaisingTheBar]

Makes sense now

Another trade! #Pelicans acquire Scotty Hopson from the #Hornets for cash considerations.

And THERE's the Hopson trade. Told you guys it was coming. You just had to wait a little bit. Wasn't so bad, was it?

Still need more.

Do we keep our MLE?

[RaisingTheBar]

Still need more.

Hopson deal is 2.45mil. What like 500k more?

[MichaelMcNamara]

Do we keep our MLE?

No, that was never a possibility. But we have a ton of good players on our roster and the Room Exception.

[PelsFan2313]

Still need more.

Worst case we throw in Babbitt.

So you care to answer last week's puzzle, Slylock Fox?

Edit: And just to be sure, are we actually keeping Hopson?

[chubbs91]

Just didn't know if we still had it or not. Thanks

Did already did. It was the address for where the press conference was going to be. No idea how he got it. But that's what it was.

I guess I just think of World Cup soccer qualifying when is comes to these things... Don't they fall under EUFAs jurisdiction?

Ahh now I see... Some wannabes

did that to avoid the Israel soccer team from having to play the likes of Iraq, Iran, etc


let's fill a 70,000 seat stadium w/ people who absolutely want to kill each other... in a very literal sense

[HornetGuru]

He will be a solid backup. Better than Miller or Southerland. I think the Room exception will be used for the starter.

gotcha, thanks

[RaisingTheBar]

Honestly with Young I'd rather throw in Ajinca and keep Babbitt (as long as Houston wants him). How do you feel?

[lowlife]

Like i said earlier, i'm NBA fan from Turkey and have watched almost every game of Rockets last year, and i can tell you won't like Casspi. I'm pretty sure about that.

[HoustonPelicans]

I will never question Dell Demps again because every time I do I end up picking my face up off the floor

They won't want him, I believe, because his contract is guaranteed.

[HoustonPelicans]

So is Garcia going to come join his old teammates (Reke &Casspi)?

[jgman]

who is scotty hopson, anyone?

[Kibner]

who is scotty hopson, anyone?

An unguaranteed contract.
