Never have to question this guy’s effort. Best of luck JV. -MP

Picture not to scale. -MP

One of the biggest issues I said last season with the Pels is that they have a lot of guys every team wants but it’s just too many of the same kind of role players. Well, a lot of those guys are gone now. And they got paid by someone.

But see he was WILLING to take less. (For the record, zero problems if a player chases the biggest bag possible, I just get so sick and tired of the whole Twitter mouthpiece game this time of year.)

Had some thoughts on the idea that Markkanen / BI are roughly equal on the Pels. -MP

The Hornets make sense (in interest), but surprised at San Antonio. Would think they want more guys to move the ball with Wemby being as good as he is already. -MP

The Pelicans imo have a fairly hard deadline with regards to action and that deadline is August 6. The Pelicans have to decide if the are extending BI by that date for him to be trade eligible at the trade deadline. IMO would be a disaster to go into season without extension

HERB JONES A REAL ONE!!!!!!

For all your contributions both on and off the court, thank you Larry 🫶

This is going to sound like an insult but I mean it as a compliment. Murray seems like someone who can be an a**hole when needed. The Pelicans are full of low key guys, and I think they desperately need someone that can make people uncomfortable. I think this is good. -MP

Already taking back thoughts about Missi. Head on a swivel, gets up and down floor, quick flips of screens and awesome feet for his size. -MP

It's been a ride (15 years!) on this app, y'all. Thanks to all for the engagement & tolerance of my nonsense, & shout-out to Elon for destroying everything good here. I look forward to seeing many of you on Bluesky! In the words of Anthony Davis - that's all, folks! - Mason
