some breaking news here in the arena a trade to report so according to Sham Shirania uh the New York Pelicans are trading CJ McCollum kelly Oenic and a future second round pick to the Washington Wizards for Jordan Pool Sadique Bay and the number 40 pick in this year’s draft sources tell ESPN wait what did we get back hm sadique Bay CJ McCullum oh no you got Jordan so Jordan pulls Sadique Bay in the 40th pick going to the Pelicans and we got Zion who we get you got CJ McCollum and Kelly Oenick in a future second round pick kelly Oen so CJ McCollum kelly Olayick they going to wave CJ they going to get him off the books so we gave them a young Jordan Pool champion a champion level and we didn’t get back zion Zion Williamson was not a part of the deal was that Are they not paying attention to the trades that’s been going on and [ __ ] that was getting you can ask for more these days new Orleans trying to get better not Washington that’s that’s that’s that that’s all that means so McCollum on an expiring contract oh he they need somebody to spray as the floor go get a bucket they need a young bucket getter well damn you know what I’m saying well [ __ ] that’s what’s the name outright that’s Wizards are Wizards are now expected to approach 100 million in projected cap space in 2026 so there too yeah we we ain’t nobody to buy ain’t nobody to buy they gonna have that place to buy it’s a good place to play though bro it is they gonna have that just nobody to buy bank account kind of looking nice [ __ ] like I got money over here they got money over here who wants a lot of black people too who wants some trying to be overpaid me so let’s just make Zion more or less likely to want to stay guys what he what do he think two sick [ __ ] in the same city it’s out of his control unless he public come out say he want out two what i’m saying but like it’s does does Jordan Jordan P don’t move the needle okay for for for nothing that’s not respectful but shot attempt he don’t move the needle nothing for some shot attempts right now he did win when he played a certain role in Golden State that’s not going to be his role here in with the Pelicans so he was very successful in the role that he played with the Golden State Warriors absolutely but think that role that he was put into in Washington was it was a struggle hopefully he’s learned something from that and playing with a better player in Zion and hopefully they put some other pieces around him that they if they are trying to compete we’ll see but Zion Zion only going to play 20 games no I’m saying no he played a lot of Do you want Jordan P’s style yeah with Zion and Ingram he needed Oh Ingram oh yeah toronto no no they’ve been trying to get a little mature well it’s definitely a step back we know where Tri works at try i’m Zion with Hope she tried with Hope where was Zion go though wherever they trade his ass to Memphis he need to just click up yeah with that a very safe city memphis for real not taking a bait so how y’all feel about the trade y’all like it oh man i love it i like it pool fan why do you like the trade fresh it’s a fresh start for Jordan Pool man uh I think it’s good for him to try to embrace a new culture regardless of what’s going on fresh start yeah playing with DeJonte Mar coming back from this season right and I think you know regardless of what people think his style of play is he is a proven champion at one point towards AL right mhm averaging 20 my bad that’s it and man they need some new energy over there for real and just to get away from that Wizards what fresh but I think it’s good for him yeah but what what so fresh start like embrace what pelicans what about it it’s his new team but but what but what you want him to embrace is what I’m missing a fresh start he gets to be around new he just had one nah see what he did with it like we talked about the 4J back in January so likely won’t be back much when is he coming back to run that was my question i didn’t got different feeling i just want to know when he was coming back but at least he got his bread after but was the sock worth the bread yeah that’s what I’m saying no like you got treated it wasn’t worth leaving jordan Pool deserves a fresh start why does he deserve a fresh start cuz he was thrown into the the trash in Washington he was thrown huh he was thrown into the trash that was in Washington he did not ask for that he was pushed out you were him all right we chose him you got to go this is where we’re sending you okay cool i got to be here till I don’t got to be here now when I’m not here I might not even ask to go here to New Orleans but guess what it’s a new [ __ ] start i get to start fresh and meet some new guys i remember when he got when he got to Washington he had the little mustache and he just look Yeah he looks stressed out he’s just like and even though it was a new star form then it’s like I do not want to be here after coming from where I just came from y’all trying to give me no chance like yeah you put me so now and it’s still going there it’s like you still kind of putting him behind the aball but at least he with another guy who’s a star that he’s like “Yo if me and him get to wiggle around and then DeJonte come in here and he wiggle around we make some moves and get some other [ __ ] who can wiggle around we could turn into a OKC or a Houston we got some pieces with them two them two head hunters make some moves.” [ __ ] I think they made the move for that that reason they made the move cj new start just to make sure that they can move Zion if they want to move Zion they move CJ to let him know you on an island now so to Jonte being there ain’t enough jordan P first year pick you know what that pick look like it look like you he just got to do something man cuz he got to he got to either dunkle somebody punch somebody himself choke a [ __ ] out cuz I thought it was wrong opportunity though when we say his name all we just remember is he getting knocked out i thought it was all about opportunity he had an opportunity we just had this whole conversation based on players having opportunities to win no we ain’t talking about win and everybody saying if I had the opportunity to win we would do this we would do that your pool is playing with the Wizards it’s not that coming from the Warriors they send people there to die so when you the Warriors and you won you wanted the W you won with the Warriors right right right so you send me somewhere where I can’t win and then you tell me I’m not doing enough no we’re not saying you’re not doing enough we watching you play what i played the same way I played when I won that’s No no no played the same way I played when I won it’s just everything i’m just playing with a different team man everything looked crazy am I playing with a different team play the same way wild no no no no the way he played the way he played in Golden State was a little like Steph Curry he played like Steph Curry a little more in control no they played like Steph Curry it looked like it was in control cuz everybody else knew what they was doing supposed to be everybody else was smart so what he was doing didn’t affect them because they knew so all right he’s about to take this wild [ __ ] we going to cut we’re going to rebound we going to do Yeah heag 20 though yeah okay over there in Wizard over there in Wizard they don’t have that style so him going him playing his Golden State style over there they not ready for that [ __ ] they don’t know what the [ __ ] was going on who average 20 i mean I don’t think he was ready for the situation either i mean honestly when he first went out there and we had like Ravage 30 no we was on No but the game that he played he did that was with the New York the [ __ ] was over there like that and he [ __ ] did that he had to let step back turn side one leg three [ __ ] and then teammate just that was it and that was if that was the rest of his career there so that’s cuz he felt he didn’t he didn’t function after that no more yeah it’s [ __ ] like that bro that that that was the moment when he’s because he had like 40ome okay and and his teammate did this and did one of those and that was all over Sports Center and if you look at his numbers after that you start thinking about that everybody turned their back on right they did turn his back on then he tried to be like a point guard and it kind of [ __ ] him up for a while they start bringing him on and off the bench that that that was the moment yeah like either you going to come back and shoot another 40 shots and say [ __ ] them or that’s going to break you so we asked the chat who won the trade 73% of the chat thinks right now that the Pelicans won the trade by getting Jordan Pool’s services so we will continue to monitor the situation a rough year for us so we got Oklahoma City Thunder champions on the couch

Can’t believe Rashad still has a job on here 😂😂😂 he is so simple and unintelligent 😂😂😂
They are acting like Poole was surrounded by trash when he got to the Wizards. his starting lineup had Avdija, Kuzma, and Gafford in it. Then had Tyus Jones that won the 6th man awards in the year before.
Zion for Poole is ridiculous
uncs clearly dont no nun bout jordan, he just had the best season of his career. Technically he don't no need no fresh start or to imbrace nun, what he deserves is an opportunity to compete at a high level again, we'll see how the rest of them boys in new orleans play next season but poole will most definitely have an amazing year.
jordans stats this year:
20.5 PPG, 4.5 APG, 3.0 RPG, 1.3 SPG
FG%: 43.2%, 3P%: 37.8%, FT%: 88.3%
his top scoring games this season:
@ Cleveland – 45 pts (Career-high)
vs Indiana Pacers – 42 pts (Included 6-for-6 FT, 16/32 FG)
vs San Antonio – 42 pts (First 40+ as a Wizard)
@ Golden State – 38 pts (8-for-15 from deep)
vs Miami – 35 pts (10/17 FG, 7/13 3PT)
Calling New Orleans Pelicans, the New York pelicans is crazy btw Josiah
Poole will always be a punchline.
Poole has been freed from basketball purgatory. And McCollum has been put in… where he belongs! LOL
No way he said vet presence with zion when they were drafted the same year
They forgot about Trey Murphy lol.
They keep forgetting to mention the other pieces the Pelicans have. Real fans know Trey Murphy and Herb Jones are coveted pieces. Poole is joining a waaaay better roster if they can stay healthy.
they had Zion running point towards the end of the season lol yes they need poole
Zion going to Atlanta
Jordan Poole just had a fresh start he could’ve used that to help turn that franchise around Poole instead complained and played terrible he didn’t need a fresh start he needs to grow up
Ace Bailey to the wizards
Why doesn’t someone call Gill out for acting gangster? He grew up in Reseda. Just kind poor people there!
Jordan Poole = 1 ring
Gil and K = 0 rings
Washington is trying to get ace Bailey to put ball in his hands and with poole , he gonna be the guy taking shots so you get cj cause he got more pg skills and good playing off another scorer
Jordan Pool in New Orleans. They gonna call em Master P. He’s gonna make em say Uhhhh. Master Pool.
Marti just don’t like Poole
If Zion plays with pool the league is fried bruh.
Jp is that guy ! One of the best Bags in the league !
The Nets are no longer the worst team in New York 😂
We got our moderator back!!!!
They aren’t winning anything. Who cares
Heat fan but wizards got a player name carrington bruh got SGA potential so I see why they did this trade
Carrington,Johnson,Coulibaly,Champagnie and Sarr all young guys that can ball they need some veterans players that show them how it done. Watch out they could be in the playoffs next as the 8 seed..
Still got Zion 😂
Does The name Trey Murphy mean anything to yall????
Poole can’t play defense
Zion the worse workmans comp case ever🤣
Kenyon Martin never has any vision. I hate people that thinks a team will be trash for eternity. A few years ago people were saying OKC would never be anything because they were a poverty franchise. Now look. Have some vision. Or at least take a wait and see approach before you poopoo on something.
Him and Zion is showetime if he can stay healthy
Brandon Jennings every time talk about the pelicans. He talkn about movn the man. This guy smh
Good riddins Poole
if poole can elevate that offense
We need Ja Morant and Memphis kan get Zion Williamson🚫🚫🚫🧢💯💪🏾💪🏾😎👏🏾🤝🏾✌🏾
@1:50 nick funny a hell “2 sick niggaz in the same city” 😂
Pels got some shooters
I literally forgot he was still in the league playing for the Wizards will do that
I don’t think the pelicans are a significant jump in organization quality from the Wizards. Especially if the guys are going to keep being injured. But cool for him regardless.
Mccants looks frustrated 😂😂😂
New Orleans is going to be good if they can stay healthy. I don't remember him from getting knocked out but sucker punched.
did this guy just say the pelicans could turn into houston/okc? they are light years away from that.
“A very safe city!” 😂😂😂😂😂
Nobody talks about how Gil takes of his crew.
Brandon Marshall Fd the bag up
Nah that team is slight decent just need more depth and experience
Bro Gil thinks BI is still on the Pelicans someone cut his mic………
Poole party in NOLA! Numbers surprised me last year.. he is gonna ball out
My boy Poole gone get win something in New Orleans
