If the Pelicans draft an all star level player from the 2nd round, they're going to win the Finals this decade.

Solid pick for the Spurs
Sharife still on the board, we pick in 1
Basketball.
We'll regret not taking Butler
*Looks at our bench after promoting NAW and maybe losing Hart*
Oh yeah... It looks solid af.
Wieskamp will be solid for the Spurs.
First ever MVP, not the first ever good player though.
I just hate this strategy where we pick ''sort of okay guys, but they're wings tho'' or - in the case of Herb - ''sort of fine but at least he's from round here''.
Just draft the dude with the highest upside. If he ever hits it, super value: if he doesn't, who cares it's not like Herb Jones is going to be a major factor either, you haven't lost anything.
Portland has acquired the No. 43 pick from New Orleans, per source.

Probably for cash considerations or something.
What a damp firecracker of a draft.
Just decided to punt on the entire draft
Aaaand we traded pick 43
43rd pick traded to Portland
NOLA doesn’t have the pick Reece, but wish we took him over Herb Jones. Sounds like a baller from the 70s
Frick I’m all confused.sorry
Lets just remember that scouts watch more basketball than you do.
these trades make no sense
Pelicans are getting a future second round pick from Portland, sources say. https://t.co/8rgMRwWEJ7

Oh nice!
And maybe next year we can trade it for a 2023 2nd round pick.
Then in 2023 we can trade it for a 2024 second round pick.
Mhmm, and they never miss.
Just ******** off Griff
Another traded pick that I like better than Herb Jones lol
It's kind of weird that, in Cleveland, what Griff was best at was making clever moves around the margins to add talent to a top heavy and capped out roster.
Meanwhile, in New Orleans, he seems to find it nigh on impossible to extract value from the margins.
david griffin is terrible
Be prepared for the trade of pick 51.
McNamara hinted this would happen. Probably why he is not here. We are drafting our G League team tonight. Jake confirmed it
Doesn't change the fact that Griff makes the pick. They just grade the prospect. Langdon makes the board. Griff throws darts trying to save his job.
Griff is really a weird POBO/GM. Outside of Adams/Bled I think going back to CLE he's been pretty solid at pulling the trigger on win now deals (which is funny considering he talks about "building organically" all the time now)and has shown he can build a roster around his franchise players in the past from very little(albeit that franchise player being LeBron lol) but, like... can he draft? Is the jury still out on that?
