I'm told the #Peicans largest concern regarding the Mirotic $12.5 million team option is ensuring they have enough cap space on hand this summer to re-sign DeMarcus Cousins.

The motto this year is #DoItBig for a reason. This applies to trades too. Make a big trade and #TakeFlight!
For years, I've been repeatedly told the #Pelicans don't intend to pay the luxury tax unless they feel they're within striking distance of a championship.

Obviously, things can change over time, but the cap is a legit issue for Pels front office.
imagine having 3 billion dollars and not many years left in your life, yet being worried about the luxury tax...#pelslife
No need in doubling down on this roster. If we should have done so the time was before the Cousins injury. Now we just be bad and hope we can strike it big in this years draft.

Well if it does fully fall through, just remember around this time last year we were all discussing the rumors of trading for J-Okafor, then that deal fell through... then we got Boogie.
Send Diallo with him
Wait, how is this on Demps or Benson? The deal hinges on Mirotic.
I’d send all of our injured players. The Bulls are tanking. Send over all the dead weight
Any combination of Asik, Ajinca, Diallo, Allen, Nelson, and Cunningham.
I love how people are tying to blame anybody for this trade at the moment. Like anyone hear has any idea what is going on at the behind the scenes lol. The over reacting on this board is so ridiculous at times.
