Pelicans aggressively trying to acquire a first round pick.

Ray Allen and Steph Curry easy choices above him. But one of the best is definitely different then the best.

No Anderson is in that category. Curry just has the ultimate green light. But when you look at %'s vs attempts Ryno is up there with the best shooters. Now Curry is in another world when it comes to creating his shots.

 

[da ThRONe]

Just feel like we could dominate the Pelicans in a trade after that deal they made last year.

Don't tell that to Pelicans report.com they love the trade. I was against it the whole time. I was actually in the Barclay center when I found out.

 

[Stickler]

Nevermind doe, can't trade consecutive 1st round picks.

Wouldn't we have kept our 2014 #5 pick in your scenario?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

The Pelican's can't trade consecutive 1st round picks. Swear y'all need reading comprehensions.

 

[dy47]

Austin Rivers ?

 

[Qman]

Didn't Anderson have a potentially career ending neck injury last year? I don't see us trading for him unless he proves he can stay healthy.

Nevermind doe, can't trade consecutive 1st round picks.

The rule isn't specifically that you can't trade away 2 consecutive 1st round picks. It's that you can't trade them away if they are your only first rounders. Since we would be giving them 23 this year they could give us theirs next year. (assuming that they have have a 2016 first)

 

[Coach Ellis]

Yeah. The rule is that you can't trade away future picks in consecutive years. You've got to have one available in order to trade another one away.

What's the difference between Anderson and Marvelous Marvin?

Wouldn't it make more sense to merely resign Marvin and keep our own picks?

 

[franklin]

All I know is that they could have easily traded Anderson for Asik last year, but never did for some reason.

Because Asik sucks ballz. He's as overrated nationally as Kanter is here.

Honestly, if I could get a future unprotected 1st rounder from the Pelicans, I would trade them Kanter/23rd for Ryan Anderson and Unprotected 2015.

You would swap a better unprotected for Anderson? I'm guessing by unprotected 2015 you really mean top 6 protected or something, but that still seems way too high given the likelihood of the Peecans not being bottom dregs forever.

I'm a big Ryan Anderson fan though. If they want a big then give them Kanter and the 35 as 1st offer, Kanter and 23 2nd.

Pierre Jackson is Pelicans property. I don't know if the Jazz FO considers him a prospect or not.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Pierre Jackson would be an interesting pickup. His development in the D-league exclusively is exactly why I want the bottom two guys down there the whole season.

 

[Tarkanian]

#5 for Davis straight up. No team says no.

add Kanter if necessary.
