I seemingly have gotten more in the 5 to 7 range than not. Kind of depressing lol

I've done it once for the last 47 days in a row and recorded the results. The results have not been good. Maybe next week I'll post all the results I have as we near the May 12 drawing.

Or, the Pels have trouble signing free agents, because they are not an attractive organization. Kelly Olynyk is this player you speak of. He like all Pels players was acquired via trade or the draft. The Pels will not be signing any quality free agents unless they are overpaying mediocre players which damages franchises. The free agent avenue is currently unrealistic.

Exactly. we've coveted a shooting big since the day Zion arrived and haven't come close to signing one via FA. Thats why i'd like to somehow acquire another pick 10-20 and take Rasheer Flemming. He's the only player in the NCAA who got 60 dunks and 40 3 pointers last season. He has a 7' &'5" wingspan, averaged 1.5 blcks a game while shooting 39% from three at good volume. I really dig how repeatable and quick his shot is... it must be respected

I don't know if he has really a 7'5" wingspan but he's one player I'd like to take a flyer on if the pelicans manage to get an additionnal first.

The combine in about a week will be interesting for sure, really looking forward to it since I feel there's some smokescreen on some prospect here.

lol I thought the same thing when I saw that as his wing-span, . I saw it in several places but that doesn't mean jack. I'd bet it winds up lower.

But then again, one has quite a wingspan even if they're lying about it to that extent.
I like that he's not just a big that can shoot.... rather a big who is itching to shoot w a fast release

It's hard not to think about how different things may have been had we taken Garland with that 4th pick.

Why would you wish #pelslife injuries on poor Garland this way?

I'm trying to keep myself as distracted as possible until May 12th. Thankfully my Dallas Stars are making that easy.

See y'all May 12th if all things go well. Maybe in June or so if it doesn't so that I can cry for a while.

Just played the draft lottery simulator again and the Pels landed pick #2. I am speaking this into existence along with pick #1.

https://x.com/DraftExpress/status/1920149123761643554 not going to lie this guy is interesting. Yes he really didn't show the shooting at Duke, but it seems like there could be hope for some in the league... massive ceiling

Does the new regime mean we're not enemies of Klutch now?
