Jodie Meeks linked to Pels!
Seems like we are going after another guard. I wonder what they do with Moore. Also, the Holiday deal isn't as bad as I thought. Not excited about having him for 25 mil but I'm glad it's not 30.
Wasn't he linked to us in the past? Or was he a suggested target? I don't remember...
Another 3pt shooter. At least we're clear on our direction.
...odd we haven't been reported as looking into any bigs. We can't be about to roll with both Asik and Ajinca off the bench...
If we signed Young and Holiday brother i'll be hhappy
I would love to get Collison for the MLE.
It would be awesome to somehow get Gay on a great deal.
Do we prefer Swaggy or Lawson ???

David Aldridge: Pelicans aggressively working to add guard talent, will also connect with veteran PG Ty Lawson (Kings) today as well as Nick Young.
I like that we are being aggressive with free agency. Build build build!!!
I'd prefer Jodie Meeks over Nick young but I woudn't mind having either. Definitely need ty lawso though.
Ty Lawson would be an awesome get. In the discussion for best backup Pg in the league.
I don't know what to say about Swaggy. The guy's numbers are fantastic. 17th amongst SG's in real
Plus minus. Great three point shooter.
Not really but I'm glad I'm not the only one. I rather Collison over Lawson because he's a better shooter. Also, Gentry hinted towards getting another combo guard to align with Jrue. I was hoping the Suns are still willing to give away Bledsoe. Also split the MLE with Collison and Swaggy P.
PG Michael Carter-Williams got a call from the Rockets last night, a source said. New York, OKC, Dallas, NO & Charlotte have interest, too.

Big ? Who is our back up PF? I know Diallo isn't ready yet
Sign Patrick Patterson or trade for K O'Quinn from N.Y.
Any suggestions Pels nation????
Guys we've been linked to: Swaggy P, MCW, Meeks, Lawson. So it seems our "type" is shooters and point guards.
Not surprising, we've heard that the Pels view Jrue as a combo and it doesn't take Pop to figure that the roster needs spacing.
Please no MCW. He sucks and can't shoot. I like Swaggy but rather CJ. Also, I like Lawson but prefer Collison. I would be good with Swaggy and Lawson. But CJ and Collison seems like better fits (CJ is more stable than Swaggy and Collison is a better 3 pt shooter than Lawson).
I like both but one is not ready & Dante plays more like a SF no muscle no post game
I think we need to ad toughness (Ajinca lacking) under the rim
I like me some wildcats
Patterson & Bledsoe also played with Boggie
I really hope we can bring in both Nick Young & Ty Lawson. Those two would do wonders for the bench IMO. Then hopefully Jordan Crawford &/or Frank Jackson can fight for minutes at the backup 2 spot. Which I hope is the case and we can bring in a scorer from the 3 like Young. I'm really hoping Diallo shows in summer league that he is much improved and ready to fight for meaningful minutes. We still need to bring in another 4. Patterson would be great, but I'm not sure we could afford him, Young, & Lawson. Plus I think he will sign with a team that gives a chance to fight for a starting spot. What's up with Terence Jones??
C: Cousins, Asik, Ajinca
PF: AD, Diallo, FA?
SF: Hill, Young, QPon
SG: Moore, Crawford, Jackson
PG: Holiday, Lawson, Cook
What is up with QPon? Will this guy ever play again? I wish we could get rid of Asik, but I don't see it other than stretching him. But I didn't think moving Mosgov was possible and somehow the Lakers did that. But Brook Lopez & DeAngelo Russell was in that deal and it was the Nets(lol).
Young & Lawsons defence is a mayor concern
They can score but also allow others to score more
Lawson scares me because of his baggage. He got dangerously close to throwing his life away.
Swaggy P intrigues me because he is a shooter you have to respect. He would open up the floor tremendously and we don't need much more than that from him.
Very interesting that there has been no Rondo buzz. I'm not saying I want him, but I thought we would at least kick the tires.
Dell loves him some Nick Young.
I'd take Rondo before Lawson
Rondo will cost a lot more than Lawson. The Rondo interest was if we didn't bring Jrue back. He wants a guaranteed starting spot and he's not getting that here. Unless Jrue moves to the 2, but that wouldn't be the right move IMO. Lawson was one of the better point guards in the league at one time. He seems to have gotten past his demons since they almost took his career away. We need a shooter on the wing and Young's 40% from 3 gives us that. Now his defense is suspect, but that's what we have Solomon Hill for. I like that Young can also give us length at the 2 if needed. I don't like Jodie Meeks cause he's almost an Etwaun Moore clone size wise. I wouldn't mind brining in Ben McElmore, but I like Young's shot more.

All ex Boggie teammates Let Boggie recruit & deside
What about Diallos play last year showed he wasn't ready? The games he played in he looked like a vet. Heck, I can't remember the game, but in one of his games he had a veteran on the court yell to the ref "man, he's a rookie!" After Diallo got a superstar call.
I am ready for Diallo to get his moment in the sun.
I like Diallo a lot but he is still not strong enough or mature enough on a consistent basis
What if he struggles in a larger role? What are our other options? Who do we have at PF?
Guess I should of worded it differently. I hope Diallo has added strength & weight to his frame this offseason. I'm not sure if he's ready to play main back up 4 minutes just yet. If he hasn't added any weight, I'm not sure he battle down low for a 82 game season. That's what I want to see.
I agree I also don't want him to fall in love with just shooting jumpers & devolpes his post game & rebounding off/def
If Young is signed is he our starting SG our a bench spark?
We have to many SG on our bench
So New Orleans has Holiday, Davis and Cousins locked up long term? Folks how are they called the Pelicans when the team has no wings?

True! Who is our starting SG?
