I fully expect a Pelicans signing in the next 48 hours. Maybe next 24. Offer is out to Casspi. He has decide between ring chasing and $$

There was always a mutual agreement between the two parties. Not like Pels just coldly cut him in the middle of the night
sure feels like the Pels are clearing room to sign Casspi!
I'm sure Cousins is putting in a good word.
I'm sure that's a major factor. It's got to be hard for Omri. It's probably one of if not his only chance to go ring chasing but he has to also feel some loyalty to Cousins too.
I won't be mad if he goes to one of the major teams to compete for a ring. I'd be pretty upset if he went to a barely got into the playoffs team instead of us though.
Regarding the idea of ring chasing... How much pride could Casspi take in a championship ring won under those circumstances? Not being part of that team the entire regular season, then at the last minute hopping aboard a winning team? I would think the sense of accomplishment would not be the same at all. Maybe it would make sense if he was an old vet about to retire who had never won a ring. But Casspi got a lot of future ahead of him in the NBA.
Pretty pumped for the early game tomorrow night. After all this talk about Rubio being a possible addition, it'll be cool to scout him and see how he plays vs. the Pels. And Cousins will be back, whoot. They might have to play Aldrich extended minutes to match up with Cousins in the low post.
Wonder who will start at SG now, stay with the streak of starting the new 10 day contract guy? (Cook in this case)
You are getting Quinn Cook.
