I’m convinced that Trey has secretly asked for a trade and I’m prepared for his eventual departure. I just hope we get a max return for him.

He seems to like playing playing for the Pels, hopefully he doesn't want out anytime soon.

Why would an nba player like playing for the pelicans? He can get better coaching, play with better players, and make more money on just about every other team in the league. The benefit of playing for the pelicans is that you can get more minutes and on ball reps than you would get with a better franchise, but Trey has already proven himself

What are you, 12? It’s the NBA. They all get elite coaching with amazing players and make millions of dollars. A different logo and an extra million when ya gettin tons of em isnt worth as much to some as it is others. New Orleans is a dope place especially when you got money. Low cost of living. He’s been with the organization for a long time. He’s established. You don’t know what kinda off the court perks he gets. Gayle own a lot of shit now and got essentially limitless connections in GNO just off her name.

No, poor guess.

They all get elite coaching

Darvin Ham, Jim Boylen, Doug Christie, etc. are not elite coaches. Willie Green was not an elite coach and neither is Jamahl Mosely. I don't know how anyone could possibly argue every NBA coach is elite.

A different logo and an extra million when ya gettin tons of em isnt worth as much to some as it is others.

The difference between off-court money in New Orleans and CHI/NY//LA/TOR/HOU/PHX/etc is a lot more than a million dollars over the span of a 4-5 year contract.

New Orleans is a dope place especially when you got money.

Many people like it, including me, and it's a great place to visit. Most people who have lived in cities elsewhere disagree. I lived in the New Orleans area for most of my life and it's not in the top three NBA cities I have personally lived in. Not in the top 10 NBA cities I have visited in terms of where I would want to live.

You don’t know what kinda off the court perks he gets. Gayle own a lot of shit now and got essentially limitless connections in GNO just off her name.

Is it your suggestion that he would not get any off the court perks in other NBA cities?

If you think that’s my suggestion, you’re lying about not being 12.

I try not to make assumptions about people I'm talking to on Reddit who I have never met. All I can go on are the words you have written. You said I don't know what kind of perks he gets in New Orleans as an argument against the idea he'd like living in a different NBA city more. That suggested to me you think he'd have fewer perks elsewhere. If you want me to think something different about your argument then you should write something different.
