I have started to take notice of Pelicans because I can see Davis making a leap over Lebron this season and have tracked back the Pelicans moves since attaining Davis and they were ridiculous lol.
When they traded Chris Paul they got back crap and the only decent player, Eric Gordon has been plagued with injuries his entire career and the 2012 pick from Clippers was then used on AUSTIN RIVERS. Dell Demps then decides he wants more injury goodness by trading away their pick which ends up being Noel for Jrue Holiday, they also could have had their choice of Giannis, McLemore ect. included in Holiday trade is their 2014 pick which ends up being Elfrid Payton or a choice of LaVine, Saric, McDermott ect. They also trade away Robin Lopez for essentially nothing and replaced him with Asik, whom is a lesser, again more injury prone player and from the goodness of GM Demps' heart gives them the Pels 2015 pick too which ends up being Dekker.
Can you imagine their line up if they had a semi competent GM?
Noel
Davis
Dekker
FA
Peyton
Or
Davis
Anderson
Antetokounmpo
Hunter
Peyton
All other than the fillers, still on rookie scale contracts
P.S I truely believe that Dell Demps has an injury fetish lol
