This all depends on if jrue can run that team well and EG is even somewhat reliable as a scorer.
Pelicans can makes some noise soon

EG has to start with staying healthy.. That would be a good first step for EG

i have no idea, but i trust his word. clutch fans (rockets fan site, but usually VERY credible or i wouldn't have even bothered) said it was top 3 protected.
brian windhorst in an espn article said if it's between 4-19, it's ours.

per zach lowe- Pick to HOU has Lowry-style reverse protections, per source. NOP keeps if in top 2/3 of lottery, and if it's 20-plus. In b/w, goes to HOU
so basically if it falls between the 4-19 range houston gets it. if not, it transfers to the next season that's possible.

This might be saying the same thing Clutch was saying

Let me guess this straight. I wanna cry
1. Pelicans have AD
2. Pelicans draft Noel whose out all year so they suck and tank
3. Pelicans get top 3 pick because they suck
4. Pelicans draft Jabari
5. Pelicans overpay for a PG and SG
Lowry
Lance
Jabari
AD
Noel

I have nothing but antipathy for the personage of NOP's GM.

And could have kept sideshow bob who was on a cheap enough contract for a center.. And could have moved ryan Anderson like mid seasonish to a contender for draft picks
Also shouldn't have signed tyreke
And should have moved Gordon to Phoenix for picks

The Thunder about to be broken up and see how they were cheap when it came to Harden(Still a small market team....watch the fans turn on them). The Spurs have an amazing staff most of the league is not doing what they are doing.

Pelicans traded Robin Lopez for nothing and he's not that much worse than Asik if at all
Signed Gordon to a max deal when he said "my heart is in Phoenix"
Just to add to all of those other questionable moves they've made

I think the Pelicans can make some noise next year if they stay healthy.
Ant Davis was murdering it the second half of the season. I could see him emerging as a top 5 big in the game next year easily

The thunder are?
Durant is under contract til 2016
Westbrook and ibaka until 2017
Then you have Reggie, Adams, lamb, pj3 and Roberson on their rookie deals
2 first round picks in this draft
And apparently the heat want to trade for Perkins (please lord baby Jesus let this be true)

I barely see them making the playoffs if things fall their way.. and I believe Davis will be All-NBA as soon as next year
I mean...
Spurs, Thunder, Clippers, Rockets, Blazers and Warriors aren't going anywhere.
Mavs, Grizzlies, Suns and Nuggets are still lingering.. Mavs could f around and sign some game changers

Yeah that is cool and I still think the team will be broken up. You can only make noise for so long before management turns on you. Are the Thunder going to wait for some of the Spurs team to retire before winning a chip? The Lakers will reload by then.

the thunder built their whole organization through the draft. durant, harden, westbrook, ibaka, jackson.
parker duncan ginobili all found in the draft, and now kawhi. if you're not a team that always gets the big FAs, that's how you have to build. and the pelicans threw all that away.

This is true.
Just look at what Bosh and James landed for Toronto and Cleveland when they left
but seriously, Jeremy Lamb?

Durant is 1000000% leaving if they don't win a title by the summer of 2016.
Thunder have 2 more seasons to get it done... and honestly I'm be shocked if they did it with this group they have now.
2 years isn't long.
