Despite loss of Cousins for season, the Pelicans plan to remain active in acquiring talent prior to the Feb. 8 trade deadline, league sources tell ESPN.
Team is going to be in a jam with the contracts they gave this summer if they want to get someone different in. Trade seems like the only way to go.

Spurs Shutting Down Inquiries On Kawhi Leonard
by Luke Adams
- There’s a belief that the Hornets tried to engage the Spurs about a trade idea involving Walker and Kawhi Leonard, which may have been how the Walker rumors started, writes Kyler. Leonard was named specifically in Rick Bonnell’s recent Charlotte Observer story as the type of All-Star the Hornets would want to get back for Walker, so there may be something to that theory. However, league sources tell Kyler that the Spurs have immediately shut down any inquiries they’ve received on Leonard.
Anderson, Lauvergne and Brandon Paul to the Nets for R Hollis Jefferson and J.Okafor
Would be a sweet..
Works on the trade machine, but I doubt it works with Brooklyn. I wouldn't mind that trade RHJ would be a great pickup and, who knows, maybe Okafor could revive his game with the Spurs. I know you really want to move Kyle, but I am much keener on moving Patty and possibly Pau as first priorities.
Patty must go.
Rondae in the current nba has more value than Pau Gasol for example, then the Nets would just laugh at this proposal
Let's try and get a second round pick for anny Green and Kyle not Kuzma, before their contracts expire and they're headed to China
We all know PATFO already has D-League's new contract printed up and ready to sign. You're setting yourself up for disappointment, brah. They're still trying to recapture the magic of '14.
eh, they heard the rumor he was disgruntled and pitched an offer.

Let me dream
Spurs get:
Will Barton
Kenneth Faried
Darrell Arthur
Nuggets get:
Danny Green
Kyle Anderson
Patty Mills
Bryn Forbes
2020 Spurs 1st round pick
Who says no?
I'll take this
Pop because he would be forced to take minutes from Ginose and/or Green and give them to Barton.
Oh, I wanna move patty too btw..
I also doubt the nets would want these spur scrubs as well but one can dream..
Take out Forbes/Fathead and add Lauvergne. Not sure I'd throw in the 2020 first since there's a chance it's a solid lottery pick. Maybe next year's pick instead.
If Spurs can pull a deal for SF depth, they need to do it.
Rose isn't getting traded, it would look bad on the Cavs part if they traded him on that low contract. Good deal for the Cavs if it happens minus Drose.
hornets give up kemba for unloading howard and batum. they receive a ton of cap space, TT, expiring contracts/players that might agree to get bought out.
batum's contract is awful but cavs would at least move $50+ million that's due to shump and jr.
kemba, isiah
crowder, korver, wade
lebron, batum, green
love
howard, bogut
best case: they somehow win
worse case: lebron leaves but cavs still have draft pick, kemba for a year, and dwight would at least be an expiring contract
... and legit PF/C depth, and a legit NBA PG, and more reliable 3-point shooter(s). But aside from that, we STACKED!
Kawhi's superstar game in last season masked the weaknesses of roster spurs, these injuries have made it clear he does not have enough help, unlike the other superstars in the league
Use Anderson, Mills, Paul And Joff as stank bait to fish a deal for a Center or PF
Put Bertans at SF and Call up Blossomegame and white..
Wait for Leonard and Gay to return...
Season Saved
Very fragile team exposing not only how poor the rest of the rotation is, but how poor the staff is that put it together. If Kawhi is truly disgruntled, the changes that are coming will be huge.
All true, but 1 they can probably get away with if Aldridge and Gasol stay healthy and 3 should be somewhat fixed by a combination of 2 (plus, if Leonard gets healthy) and progression to the mean.
I hate to be redundant, but as pathetic as it is watching this team attempt to play offense (they drown in an endless stream of PnR's, DHO's and dribble weaves that go nowhere because no one can puncture the defense and force rotations), if Leonard can get healthy and they acquire Walker, they're probably the 2nd best team in the league. If not and they end up in the 4-5 match-up, they could easily be eliminated in the 1st round.
The kawhi era was predicated on Leonard being healthy and pulling in a third star. WE wiffed. PATFO now gotta think about tank
You are not wrong - just more optimistic than I about fixing the PG position - especially with a player like Kemba. Could this be the year that PATFO make a splash at the deadline? In a normal team, Pop and RC would be feeling a lot of heat to straighten out this team. But on the Spurs, where Pop is also the president and the ownership is even more hands-off than they have been historically (possibly looking to sell the team...?), what pressure do Pop and RC feel?
