J.M., thank you for the subject contribution.

I'm fascinated with New Orleans cap sheet.

Doubt it's a deadline fit with the Knicks, but feel like they have way too many guys making too much money for a historically cheap team, anything you see with them and the Knicks. Pelicans, for those

who maybe haven't fallen, have been quite good for the last few weeks. I think if they were to make a move,

it would really just be with Valanchunis. There are other things that they could force down the line, say this summer, but nothing

that they have to address immediately.

You know, if Ingram decides, I don't want to be here, there's no reason for them to

move them right now.

They could just play it out and see how it goes.

There are a lot of players making money, but it's worth mentioning, too, that the cap will

rise. I'm curious if

they plan on dumping that CJ contract. Nick should have no part in that, not advising that,

but the sort of mindset of if they need to get rid of money and if they had excess picks,

and that was their only way of doing it. They could do that.

I don't think they don't strike me as the best trade partner.

And while I say that, I'm just going to pull up their their multi-year cap that is available online.

Yeah, we talked about CJ.

It's a really tough contract to eat.

There's still two years left of a $100 million deal.

Zion, of course, don't see him going anywhere right now.

Same with Ingram.

Valenciunis is a free agent.
