with the Atlanta Hawks for both Dejounte Murray and Trae Young ahead of the trade deadline. Those talks are expected to resume this summer.

While New Orleans has interest in both Hawks point guards, sources indicate that the Pelicans prefer to swing a deal for Murray. Murray has a more team-friendly contract, and he's a better defender than Young is.

Some have suggested that New Orleans star Zion Williamson would like to play with Young. The star guard's father even went on social media making a similar suggest that Young and Williamson would like to play together.

All this pelican trade zion and ship off bi shyt is stoopid as fukk.


Break up a number one western conference team. That is plagued by injuries. As to why they are not able to secure a number one seed.

Pelicans only issue is not having a real big. When edey is there to steal in the draft.


All the pelicans have to do.

Is stay pat and get a real big to go with valenciunas.

Hopefully edey and run it back. Before injuries...this pelican team is a number one seed.

Why break all this up.

Make these nighaz wear high tops shoes and get a center.
Trading bi and zion is stoopid.

Who cares what they prefer lol they are not getting Murray or Trae.

First of all CJ McCollum is worthless. That dude is not generating much value in return, unless when he becomes an expiring contract. These streaky shooting undersized shooting guards look bad in the playoffs 9 times outta 10. Throw some taller guys on him and his damn shooting starts costing you games.

Ingram is a very talented kid. But he's a worse injury prone than Anthony Davis was. Plus I've seen this dude talking about not getting enough opportunities to score the ball while he played for Team USA, that "what about me" mentality doesn't translate into wins. He got benched in semifinals and 3rd place game. Like how bad you have to be to get benched on a Team USA made out of secondary/third choices?

They have the assets to get one of them. It’s just the matter of whether they’ll give them up to do it.

They are not giving away Ingram for Murray or Trae and this is where the phone call ends. Hawks will find another team that gives away some assets to get one of those two.
You’re forgetting that they still have young players plus those Lakers and Milwaukee assets plus their own they could add to the deal. That’s definitely enough to get Murray.

The problem with the pelicans this season. Was trying to make euro offbrand steph. From the nba owning the pelicans.
Plus the pr limbo jail. That zion appeared to be in. For having undesirable females on his roster.

Cj McCullough is an asset.

McCullough just needs to man the bench. While zion starts at his natural at pg.


The pels are fine.

As long as they stay healthy.
If they are not healthy. Then the pels will fail.
plus succumb to injury like the previous seasons. Where they fall from a number one wcf seed. Into the loser mode bracket come playoff time.

They just need to remain healthy.

The coach just needs to use rhe correct template to succeed. Plus do away with the nba's ideal of roster schematics. In favor of the potential pels matchup.
that creates mismatches nightly.

That being zion at pg.
Bi at the three.
All defensive first team at the two
Val at the four.

Then draft edey.



Let cj man the under sized bench at the sg. With fake steph at the one. Use the pel's energizer pest latin at the one off the bench.
In the third unit.
Then you can run the bench mob of guys who are excellent.
this team with better roster positional management.

I expect nothing from the Pelicans to be honest. This is the same franchise that shared medical staff with the Saints franchise, to save the money. When franchises do cheap ass things like that I just can't take them serious. Even though they recently hired a new medical staff. They have that cheap ass loser stigma.

It's not easy building winning culture, especially for franchises that aren't old, but they were gifted AD and Zion over the past 15 years. Two incredible talents but zero conference finals yet.

Yes technically CJ should come off the bench, but he's getting paid like a starter and they will keep him out there trying to play hero ball with low percentage shooting.
