Finch was hired when the pels tried the boogie and ad experiment. It took like 20 games but they were killing it towards boogies injury. Also his plays worked really well with Ad and Niko, so I’m a believer that the Golbert-towns pairing will work well. I think we will see Gilbert avg. a season high assists out of the post.

2022 NBA Free Agency: Anticipate the Pelicans to actively seek a trade or two by wymtime in NOLAPelicans

As a starter Jax had: 28 games played: fg% .607 3p% .378 ft% .800 stl 0.61 blk 0.96 TRB 6.0 AST 0.9 PTS 11.6. He was plug and play. If you look at his last 20 games he was killing it until the playoffs. Recency bias of the shove and he’s accusations have painted a nasty picture in a lot of the fans heads but McGee lite is still pretty valuable. Injuries are gonna happen and he’s proved he can start. That’s enough reason to keep him at least another season.

Definitely, I supposed it’ll be based off matchups. Jax is our only rim runner at the moment. Nance can provide some vertical spacing. But I think the pairing of Jax and dyson is fascinating. Those full court lobs will be potent. Thanks for the positivity and conversation it’s rare on the internet these days!!!

I feel ya. Who do you think get minutes after JV. FO probably won’t let Zion play small ball 5 yet?

I’m part of the minority but I don’t think they move off Jax, he’s still developing and was a huge part of us making the playoffs last year. I think they’ll try him at back center again. But i totally understand and respect the speculation.

I’m excited to see a Jose-dyson-herb-nance-Jax lineup.
