Who should become the first person to be drafted to the pelicans?

I wouldn't mind keeping Davis at PF if somebody like Alex Len was on board to play center when the Pelicans pick

Something about Len bothers me. I just don't see him being that real body that we need with Davis like a Pek, etc.

Otto Porter would look good in a Pelican uniform next season

Otto Porter putting a whooping on Syracuse. I'd love this guy at SF next season

Great game for Porter today.

33 out of total team 57 points... Damn Porter... I didn't see that coming. I know his shot was good, but 12-19 and 5-10 from distance.

Combine that with 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 5 steals, and only 1 TO. Woah.

He's who I want here next year, and that was against a quality opponent.

Who is better? Shabaz or Otto?

Shabazz is probably more talented and will be a better scorer but seems like more of a SG. Otto seems like an ideal fit

PLUS he did it while not being a ballhog. It's not like he put up these numbers while having the ball in his hands the entire time. He put up those stats while playing within Georgetown's offense.

I haven't been a big Porter guy, but he looked super impressive today.

Bazz or Porter, I'd be thrilled with either.

I also like Doug McDermott out of Creighton

Otto would fit in perfectly herw

love otto porter, great shooter, rebounder and lockdown defender.

You guys have no idea how excited I would be if we drafted Trey Burke.

I'm ok with bpa as long as its not a 4. I could careless if it hurts Gordon's feelings.

If we get the 5th pick my top 5 list goes:

Mclemore
Shabazz
Porter
Smart
Burke

I like oladipo a lot i just dont see him as a SF, he's 6"4 he just wouldnt make it at SF. reminds me of ronnie brewer as a big athletic defensive SG, and yes I def have burke over him, burke is an offensive floor general and makes his teamates better.

Also back to porter, i see a lot of loul deng and tayshaun prince in him, think he would be a very good SF for us.

Thought he was 6'5 with a 7 foot wingspan? Also I would play him at the 2. Burke has nowhere near the ceiling and I'm a Burke fan.

I really am starting to like a lot of the players in the 5-10 range (where we will be picking). The draft is horrible for picking in the top 3, but after that, I think the prospects are really solid.

I'd be thrilled with either Porter, Shabazz, or Oladipo, and I would not be disappointed with Zeller, who I think has become vastly underrated (No. 9 on Ford's board).

Agree, if we get the 6th pick and porter and shabazz are gone i really hope we trade down or trade the pick altogether for someone like wilson chandler
