#4 Traded

[SmontySwilliams]

Could be a preemptive move to acquire more picks and move salary to create cap space to trade for a vet tonight even. Since it was an hour out.

David Griffin is back! He should have never been out but way to come back.

And people thought Dell was a dealer...

[wuggie]

Griffindor isn't playing around lol

[Eman5805]

Hah. The Celtics wanted the 4th pick. But they didn’t wanna give up the Memphis pick.

[Pelicanidae]

David Griffin just grabbing the entire league by the neck and going berserk.

[HornetGuru]

Just went on a few nba forums to gauge interested from outside fans and everyone said the pels got the way better end of the deal

100 points for Griffindor!

Don't trade with Danny Ainge. He'll fleece you. He'll rob you blind. Once he's finished polishing his trophy case filled with 2043 second round picks.

Someone needs to get that man help. He's a hoarder, and has no idea when to let go.

Didn't trade for PG13 cause he wanted to keep Brown.
Didn't trade for Kawhi cause he wanted to keep Rozier.
Didn't trade for Davis cause he wanted to keep Tatum.
Horford and Kyrie both walking in the same off-season.
Didn't trade for #4 because he wanted to keep his 2021 Memphis pick.

Dude's gotta be on the verge of losing his job at this point.

[luckyman]

Gotta be Hayes in that scenario

I'm higher on Goga. Way more skilled plus athletic. So it wont be Goga.

[Mount Zion]

Plus there is zero chance that Atlanta will want to wait until the end of July to complete this deal. Whoever they pick will play in the summer league. Lakers lose again.

Just saw an absurd fact in this tweet:

Updated #Pelicans pick haul tonight will be:
No. 1
No. 8
No. 17
No. 35 (2nd round)
No. 39

If New Orleans makes all 3 of those 1st-rounders they'll have officially made more 1st-round NBA draft selections tonight than the franchise has made COMBINED since the 2013 draft (TWO!!) pic.twitter.com/hHkYJyjDo5

If we make those three FRPs, we will have made more first round picks tonight than in the 6 seasons since 2013.

Wow.

Dell didn’t half give em out like candy no? You can scratch Nerlens off as well because we traded him two seconds later

And that is why the AD era failed

[msusousaphone]

Oi. That's over simplyfing things a ton.

Also. Wondering if Langdon has a bead on some Euro talent.....

[smcgull]

I couldn’t believe it when I heard all they got for that 4 pick. I wanted Hill to do well, this could help him too. So happy for all they got.

True, although the Nerlens deal landed us Jrue so that actually worked out.

Traded Buddy within a season too.

In Dell’s defense, I think the ownership forced his hand a bit. They wanted to “put a product on the floor” rather than do things the right way. No disrespect to Mr. Benson, but Gayle cares much more about this team.

[DaPelFromHell]

Sweet!! Now take Culver or Reddish, I prefer Reddish. Then I’d take a chance on Bol Bol at 17 since we still got 2 more picks. Then take the best players available at 35 & 39.

Good Riddance to Solo Hill too!! What a move?!?!

Oh sure, it's not entirely Dell's fault. I remember hearing that Benson was very much interested in winning now now now now instead of actually undergoing the process correctly and with patience. Dell did what they asked him to. It's just that what Benson and Loomis wanted was dumb and doesn't work in the NBA.

To be fair it could have worked without the injuries and the cancer known as Puddin

Here you go

For Jrue Holiday who is still on the team. Nerlens however, is on his 3rd team already. People really blow this BS with Dell out of proportion.
