    Apparently he's being targeted to help us at the 3.

    "I'm not going to allow my putative owner to answer that question, this is an NBA related press conference. Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell have collectively sung their praises of Tom and if uh ESPN has a problem with that tell Mr. Skipper to call me at my office."

    We won't be able to trade Gordon without taking back salary so its not realistic to trade Gordon and sign both Evans and Iggy this offseason. Its easier just to sign Evans. Plus, Iggy and Evans would provide little perimeter shooting. Neither are as talented as a scorer as Gordon.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    Plus he draws fouls. he and Holliday would seriously get us in the lane more and get more FT's; hence opening up Davis for the alley's

    and remember
    .

    our PF isn't just a good shooter, he is elite

    jrue
    tyreke
    Anderson
    davis
    hickson/pecovic

    That's the big difference. Anderson, Gordon, and Holiday are all in their early 20s compared to Peja, Posey, Mo-Pete who were much older.

    I think Vasquez will be used in a sign and trade for Evans.

    Come on FCP. Evans would be the 3 on this team not the 2. And Anderson is not a SF. He's a stretch PF making him take the bigger players to the perimeter and opening the floor for Evans, Holiday, and Gordon.

    Well it doesn't matter what team he's on when it comes to free throw percentage and Iggy's was horrible. For Reke being on a bad team, they both shot it around 11 times a game. You would think with Reke being on a bad team, he would of shot way more than Iggy if you go by inflated stats!?!?!

    Gordon's perimeter shooting is severely overrated, especially considering he's always on the end of the bench in pennyloafers.

    And as I've said numerous times, all you have to do is include one of the 10 teams with cap space in the trade and the Pelicans could take back as little as a future 2nd round pick.

    Imagine if we did Gordon for Deng. Surely we could find a 3rd team with cap space that would take Deng free of charge for a 2nd round pick.

    They talking about it just as much as we are.
    I've noticed people just like saying the "the Pelicans". Everybody gets their city/state mentioned except us...LOL

    Dallas, Houston, Philly.. Atlanta and SA were also mentioned as teams possibly interested in Tyreke .. and now the Pelicans of course
    David Aldridge has done this on tv as well.

    So I guess now the main question is.... do we want Iggy?

    Or some kind of combo like Evans and Budinger/Copeland/Webster ???

    I kinda like the thought of landing the 2 players. Although Iggy has been rumored here for what.. .3 years now?

    Either way... whatever direction we choose makes this team playoff contenders.

    I doubt we're doing that.

    Holy Hell... so we get them both? That's legit.

    How do we make it work financially? Cut bait with all non guarantees and then resign them to go over the cap?

    .
    No one will fully absorb his contract since he is injury prone especially a rebuilding team which most of the teams with cap space are.

    And Gordon's perimeter shooting is not severely overrated. Im his 3 years in LA his total shooting was around 57% and was a 37% shooter from beyond the arc. You sound silly saying he's not a good perimeter shooter.

    IDK how I like the Holiday and Evans matchup without Gordon. The off ball shooting of Gordon and Holiday and both being able to handle the ball is what makes the duo so special.
    2013-1014 is the season the Pelicans fanbase grows!!!!

    Damn that's something, I thought sending them Greivis Vasquez in a sign & trade made sense. Gordon for Evans though? That's tough, but would give us space to go after Iggy or Pek for sure.

    Not sure Sacto would want EG especially with McLemore and MT23.
