More smoke with JB to the Pels...

JB to NO

Murphy, Murray and draft picks to Boston.

"IF the Pelicans aggressively pursue Jaylen Brown, the blueprint for their blockbuster trade offer would center directly around the following, per

- Dejounte Murray
- Trey Murphy III
- Significant draft capital"

That doesn't seem like enough.

How did Dejounte Murray look after his return from injury?

A D Murray, D White, Pritchard backcourt would be interesting. A two forward combo of Trey Murphy and Jayson Tatum would be good. Maybe try to get Herbert Jones as well since NOP is not giving up a top player for Jaylen. Then you have a 3 man forward rotation there too. Queta at center. FA backup center.

G: Dejounte Murray, Pritchard
G: D White, Baylor
F: Trey Murphy, (Herb Jones), J Walsh
F: Tatum, Hugo
C: Queta, (FA)

Update:
Here are some highlights (3min) from Dejounte Murray last season. It looks like he is still moving well from those clips. Some acrobatic drives / finishes. Some quick feet on defense for steals.

Edit: Didn't D White and D Murray play together in San Antonio? It was a bit dysfunctional back them if I remember right but that was because neither could shoot the 3. D White can now. Should be fine now. Two big guards. Murray more of a tall thin guard than big. Quick though and can cover smaller quicker guards better than D White or Pritchard or at least he could before the injury.

Speaking of Zion, apparently Jake Fischer said today that the Pelicans are interested in Jaylen Brown. Interesting with the rumor that we are interested in Trey Murphy III. I doubt any of this is really of any substance, but still fun to talk about.

I wonder if the offer could be Zion + Trey Murphy given how bad Zion's injury issues have been.
