    I just saw this... just wow. If we get anyone other than Thibs i'm not very happy.

    "I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

    He received the dreaded vote of confidence. He was doomed.

    why would they do this before July 1st? This can only hurt AD signing an extension no?

    They have to have something planned. AD and Monty always seem really close in interviews and articles. But in order to make AD want to stay, they HAVE to be up to something big. Right? Like... right?

    I do not understand the people that think choosing between $9 million + hopefully $140 million in year or $145 now is actually a choice at all. Eric Gordon was completely unhappy here by all accounts and he still took the money.

    I'm kind of worried about how it looks to potential candidates that Benson sent out a vote of confidence something like 2 weeks ago and now this happens

    You got a damm good point. 15+ mill/per would make anybody STFU and play.

    If they don't have a clear upgrade in mind, this move was pointless. I'm interested to find out if Dell stays.
    The most overused words on Pelicansreport.com. Wrongly, I might add.

    ELITE - (often used with a plural verb) the choice or best of anything considered collectively, as of a group or class of persons.

    GREAT - notable; remarkable; exceptionally outstanding

    These words should not be used lightly
