Would love Brogdan and SabonisOriginally Posted by Darkhorse985
Here's the main takeaway, point though.
I GUARANTEE you that Zion's 2-8 will be better than the 2-8 this past year of Luka, Trae, Lillard, Randle, Ja, Steph, and and Beal. Way better than some of them, but definitely somewhat better than all of them. So, I dont want to hear him complain if he doesnt win. Because he will have the guys, and if he is that dude that others swear he is and will be, then the Pels will win. If they dont and he wants out, then I will happily take a monster ransom for him to pair with that already solid 2-8.
@mcnamara247
The Hawks have a very solid and deep team, so I?d be very impressed if the Pels depth is better next year than the Hawks this year.
I said 2-8.
Yes, I admit the Hawks might have a better 9 and 10, but you win with your top 8. And it will be better, plus Zion is generational - even better than Trae I thought. Especially since he can at least give you something on the other end and was supposedly improving a lot on that end of the floor at the latter part of the year
In comparison of the two teams? current rosters, I would say the Pels have the advantage at the 1 and 2 positions but are not in the same ballpark from 3-8. Zion should be allowed to carry his team in the clutch like Young has. I agree with Zion and his family that David Griffin/Van Gundy has held him back from developing that part of his game. The kid gloves need to come off.

Are you not reading what I am typing? How can you say they have an advantage at 3-8 when you dont know who the Pels 3-8 will be.
Again.... his 2-8 NEXT YEAR will be better than the Hawks this year
Yes I know what you are saying. I am just adding to the discussion in comparing the rosters this year. I can’t argue against or agree with your statement about next year until I know what players you are hypothetically taking about.
If this is true we should be a really good team. To me a 4-5 seed but Griff has some work to do.
ok, I'll bite..... what will be the Pelicans 2-8 next year?
"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
Shoulda taken Maxey last year
He seems built for the big shot
thats not the point. I dont know. Griff dont know. But I know the guys Griff is talking to other GMs about and there is no way the 2-8 isnt much better than a lot of other stars had and did very well with this season
I had him #8 on my board and the top guy left when we picked. I have no clue how he fell that far. Not a perfect player but he will give you everything hes got every night
He looks like Kira. I think with more playing time both will be good.
My thought would be to get into a 3 way with Boston and Washington. Beal and Tatum are good friends so maybe they try to make that happen. We can jump in with the picks. Would Bledsoe and a couple fillers plus 4 first to Washington be enough to get Brown and Robert Williams. (Of course Beal to Boston). Lonzo/brown could be a good backcourt or you could still move Lonzo for other players/depth. The good is Brown is really good, cheaper, and on a longer contract.
I thought he went at 15, but 21? Got damn
I wonder if Zion and Ingram will actually play defense now that SVG is gone
You must be very confident that Griffin can pull off a big deal for a high level player or players.
Its more that I know he wont stop until he does. I still dont think he adds a "star" but he isnt talking to teams about Bledsoe and #10. We are talking about him willing to part with 3, 4, 5, 6 firsts this offseason if it comes to it. If say OG and Sabonis cost him Bled, Adams and 6 picks, I am confident he would actually do it.
The roster around Zion will have plenty of talent. He will have no excuses
Who is OG???
OG Anunoby. He would be a great fit.
Heat interested in Ingram?
https://heatnation.com/rumors/report...he-miami-heat/
So, he is ready to empty the warchest now? My concern is that he will not stop until he does. I worry he will get desperate and overpay for good, not great, players. He has shown that if he falls in love with a player (i.e. Adams), he will overpay without hesitation.
Just a fluff piece. What would they have to offer? They are not parting with Bam, so not much else.
My worry too but he is not targeting one player I dislike
Id rather this approach where he pays big for real players than do the value buys he tried for Favors and Adams
