Good return especially if you can somehow get RJ with that pick.

Tremendous haul for the pelicans , oof Zion and Barrett playing together again

See my sig

smh

wonder if lonzo 2 phx is in play.

I think Pelicans can entice with the 4OVA plus 2020 lakers 1st to move up to 3 if RJ is not getting past 3.

right now:

ball/hart
jrue
ingram
randle?
zion
plus #4

thats not shabby i gess amirite peli?

Hey there. Heat fan here. I feel Like we’re like your cousins on the board. Congrats on the haul!

I’m thinking it’s more likely that someone like DeAndre Hunter gets taken at 4 and you sign a center like Brook Lopez or DeAndre Jordan (depending on if they want to go inside or out). You could also trade for Hassan for cheap on an expiring (wink wink)

The real question is: what happens with Lonzo?

Jrue
Ingram
Hunter
Zion
Lopez/Jordan/Whiteside

Is a very nice team with hart as a 6th man. Lonzo could probably net yet another 1st

Side note i could also see you moving 4 to Atlanta for 8 and 10 and getting some real depth.

Pelicans fan since birth checking in!

Should have dealt with the knicks if you wanted RJ

Crazy way to look at it:

You guys are going to be great in a few years. This is a repeat of the OKC squad that had KD; Russ, Ibaka, and Harden.

Congrats. You guys got a haul considering Rich Paul did everything in his power to screw you guys over.

Also, the Pelicans Twitter been going HAM today!

I'm happy for you guys getting Zion and a nice haul with picks. Now just do me a favor and find a way to crush the Flakers for us k.....


Also, you guys( IF you trade Ball to Chicago for the 7th pick) should then move the 4th pick, 7th, a future laker first/ and Ingram to Washington for Beal.

That would give you much better shooting as well.

There better be some more Pelicans fans rolling in to this forum in the next 12 months! If not I'll be around.. you bet I'm watching Pelicans games next season.

What an incredible haul you guys got.. instantly the brightest future in the league.

Lonzo will fit in incredibly with Zion, those 2 together will instantly result in the most fun transition team in the league. Ingram dominated after the AS break last year, I think he's really coming along well. Hart's also a great piece, ideal role player, and you can swing Jrue to the 1 and have Hart at the 2 for more spacing.

Randle had a good season but I'd be looking to swap him out for a C that can space the floor more. Seen some people mention Markkanen, and he'd be a perfect fit, but I'd want a haul for him because I wouldn't be looking to move him if I'm the Bulls.. so might have to see what else is out there.

If a Lonzo deal is being considered, I still think Bulls would swap their 7 for him. Would give you guys yet another invaluable rookie scale prospect to add to the group.

Rumor is you're shopping the 4. If you do keep it, I would take Garland - he fits well next to any of Lonzo/Jrue/Hart in the back-court, and he brings dynamic shooting on and off the ball for a team that needs as much spacing as possible. I don't like the RJ fit.. I think Culver's just as good a talent if you wanted a wing and he'll be there at 4 (not that I'd take him if I was the Pels). He'll be gone at 3 anyway.

It's interesting reading this and given the defensive guys you will have in Jrue, Ball and Zion, that he would want to add a shooter but questions Garland because of his defense. Seems that backcourt is one that could handle it. I could see a team like ours hesitating because of that.

I think I like Hunter the most for fit on the Pelicans....just a versatile defender but great shooter next to him....could even go 4/5 in small ball at times.

zo has put on a lot of muscle already in the offseason
he's going to be amazing with zion and esp if you get a 3 point shooter like garland
