2686175, If Pelicans think outside the box they can build assets like the 6ers did. Posted by High Society, Thu Jan-31-19 10:53 PM
If they took the Lakers deal... you get a third team involved, let's say the suns... you trade Ball for a first. you trade kuzma or ingram for a first to another team.
You don't have to be stuck with the baby lakers going fwd.
if you also got 2 firsts from the lakers, you could potentially have 3 or 4 first round picks.
plus their own first round pick.
stock pile assets. start over completely. trade jrue at deadline for a first.
if you got 5 or 6 first round picks... then trade for a star if you want. or trade a few firsts for a higher pick in a draft.
there are avenues to be in decent shape with a clean slate.
