who is the Pelicans second best player for 2015-2016

This pelicans team is so inconsistent. I'm really hoping Gentry can revive some careers. I think you could make an argument why any one of these players is good or bad. Jrue, Gordon: injuries Tyreke: inefficiency, Anderson, Asik: decline in their one elite skill

So who ends up being Davis's number 2 feel free to add why.



Also I'm going to start posting here more this board needs some life.

Jrue Holiday. Like you said it's only because of injuries he plays bad, but when he's healthy he's a solid PG.

Unfortunately all these players are pretty bad and non of them should be resigned (especially Tyreke). Hopefully Anderson has a comeback season, AD could definitely use an effective stretch 4.

It's hard to say who's the next best consistent player behind AD. The team has to improve their efforts in order to survive in the challenging Western Conference. Now you have teams like Dallas and Portland likely to take a step back, while you have teams like the Thunder looking to make a resurgence and the Jazz looking to make a name for themselves behind their defensive efforts that brought them a good record in the second half of last season. Although they likely to have lost Dante Exum for the season, I think the Jazz can be underestimated no longer.


If the Pels want to be taken seriously in the Western Conference, they need to determine what trade value do Evans, Gordon, and Anderson have and what they can bring back in return.

Tyreke is too ball dominat for what he brings to the table and he rarely functions well without the ball or passes to the right man, AD is continously freeze by him.
As a 6th man guy for 20-25minpg he is okay, but he is far from been the 2nd best player for this team.
The answer is Jrue if he is healthy.

Jrue, but they should really just try and surround AD by shooters/defensive players and let him carry a lot more of the offense.

Jrue Holiday, why have they put a cap on his minutes and for how long?
