He kind of fills the 1/2 spots, possibly a 3 at times so the cost actually makes up for it to me in the versatility he brings and again, I’m not knocking Murray but he just didn’t fit with Trae over a 2 season outlook on it so getting Dyson and getting back in the 2025 draft with the Lakers pick is not bad to me. We could have done a lot worse that’s for sure. AAAAANNNNDDD, we didn’t give in and trade him to the Lakers as much as they were trying to corner us with bs media outlets. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member JeffS17 Posted June 30 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 30 Not exactly related here but that Pelicans roster still has little to no creation/playmaking ability. Maybe its somewhere murphy iii can improve but dj fit with zion and ingram is mediocre at best imo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Final_quest Posted June 30 Report Share Posted June 30 Equivalent talent trades are tough. That’s why picks are so often what facilitates a trade. Get a couple rotation guys and a couple picks we can use or trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn’t boost NOP, people will understand his style of play doesn’t raise the floor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a minimum, Murray is goingcto be excellent regular season insurance for the inevitable missed games from Ingram and Zion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember him from the draft a few years back. What is he 6’6”? Wonder if he makes our world and will be on our radar or are we cuttin him loose? He has a guaranteed deal so probably a real chance he is kept. Cheap enough to be cut if we want, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GThawks3 Posted July 3 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 3 (edited) His upside is insane if he can develop offensively. Perfect fit next to Trae. Edited July 3 by GThawks3 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Popular Post SalvorMallow Posted July 3 Premium Member Popular Post Report Share Posted July 3 This is a good breakdown of Dyson's game. He mentioned specifically Dyson's role as a connector on offense is a trait that works perfectly next to ball dominant stars. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Popular Post AHF Posted July 3 Moderators Popular Post Report Share Posted July 3 While I was hoping for someone more established, I do like that Dyson has legit upside and Quin is a great coach to help develop someone's offense. Will be rooting for him all the way. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or potentially for Trae. We obviously won't or can't be aggressive but selling off any positive assets won't help the Hawks either. This is called purgatory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurpilo Posted July 3 Report Share Posted July 3 Good defenders, I also realized that on offense he is going to help a lot with his passing and ball handling, if he can improve his shot be will be a great fit with us 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Risacher is like the watermelon that could be potentially the most tasty, comforting treat if he cuts it. Sweet, chilled watermelon goes with everything. Bufkin is the dessert our sibling’s new girlfriend is bringing. We’ve heard good things, but we don’t know firsthand. However, we are currently sitting with an empty bun hoping Uncle Don’t Fold Laundry (a nickname he earned because he always shows up to family events with wrinkled clothing) didn’t forget he was responsible for the barbecue.
