The Bird Writes had a unique opportunity to speak with Stu Jackson from NBA TV late last week about the 2016 Draft and where the New Orleans Pelicans fit into that equation. Jackson is in his 4th year as an analyst for NBA TV, but most are probably familiar with his work for the league office where he spent 13 years governing on all matters relating to the play on the court. Prior to that, he had head coaching stints with the New York Knicks, the Vancouver Grizzlies and Wisconsin Badgers.
We don't require advice on any disciplinary action at the moment -- unless of course Dell Demps decides to make a widely unpopular pick or trade -- so the entirety of the fifteen minute interview was dedicated to discussing possible draft selections for the Pelicans, in both the first and second rounds, as well as the ideological value behind prospects.
