Not an all star but def happy with that SF
considering our current SF situation... he's prob. our starting SFOriginally Posted by PELICANSFAN
"The pelican is fearsome. Take a raven, for example: it's omnivorous. It eats bugs, and seeds, and fruit, and carrion. Compared to the well-rounded citizen that is the raven, the pelican is the serial killer of birds." - Barry Petchesky, Deadspin
Casspi and Tyreke have history together. ..
Bench? I think he will be starting.
1-6
?
Good history or bad?
so to summarize... we get a starting C... a player who can fill the gap in our SF situation and didn't have to give up any of Ryno/Rivers/EG/Babbitt/Withey
edit: take Babbit out of that b/c we may still have to give him up somehow to make this happen... but still we kept the big pieces

Kings' days?
Fun fact last time they were teammate tyreke put up 20-5-5
Casspi is an average three point shooter. It's kind of a funny reuniting between he and Reke who played together in SAC. Casspi didn't get minutes in the playoffs last year. He's a decent third string SF option. Definitely not a guy you want getting major minutes. He shoots most of his threes from the wings which I don't like so much as a good corner three shooter. You could do worse, and it is good to see a small forward who is at least an average shooter on the roster. I do like his shot selection. It's almost all threes and shots at the rim, but what else would you expect from a player Morey traded for?
If we keep Babbit Casspi and he would be decent backups. Hopefully we can find a decent one with the room.

.......if healthy
@Jabberwalker
He plays with an edge as well
I don't know about that yet - specifically Babbit or Ajinca.
But the good news is that we got a SF and still have our Room Exception to add another

We are almost definably going to have to give up Babbitt. The deal doesn't work otherwise.
Contributor 
Yeah I'd be very surprised if he's our starter. I don't think he's bad, but I'd be a little disappointed if he started even if he's only getting 20-25 mins. I hope we get someone else too, and I believe we will.
Yep, still got the room exception left.
Contributor
You have any idea what else we're giving out in the trade?
Contributor
Per Mason we still have to send out 2.3mil additional in salary for the trade to work (besides Ely+Gee).
Contributor
6.3 mil total I believe, so about 2 mil more after Gee and Ely.
Although the process has been slow in the eyes of the fans, but to get Asik and Casspi and keep our exception. .great job by Dell
I know the original plan was to get Hopson. He and Babbitt would be enough.
I don't know what it will be, but I am sure we will find out soon.
Contributor
Yeah you got me before the edit. it was 6.3mil total but subtracting ely and gee it's around 2.3
Brian Roberts being added to this via S&T would work. Babbitt and Hopson would work. Rivers would work, but I am sure he would have been reported. Ajinca and Babbitt would be close (gotta check the numbers).
Just gotta wait and see
