I went from having no faith in the future of this franchise to psyched as all hell pretty fast. Someone pinch me to make sure I'm not dreaming. Hopefully Griff doesn't screw up Zion like Dell did AD. I got faith, the man knows what he's doing. And Gayle Benson is a great owner. Things are on the up. should get more from all 3 teams.

The gap between Zion and Ja is pretty damn big if we're being honest though, Ja has some question marks in his game. As does Zion but we're not going in circles again...

49er pride Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 so, like, any chance the lakers could swap 4 for Beal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the dude I wanna trade for. Could afford his deal too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spartica4Real Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 It's honestly insane to me how much the NBA relies on luck. The fact that the Pels went from a very uncertain and confusing future to one of the brightest in the NBA with Zion, Jrue, and a ton of assets from an AD trade is insane. Just due to the bounce of some ping pong balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Simmons game doesn’t work come playoff time, I’d want nothing to do with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWil23 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 If I'm the Pelicans and Ja Morant is still in play at #3, I'm looking to deal AD for that 3rd pick, dump some deadweight with it, and try to add a young shooter so that I can pair Zion and Ja and try to recreate a 2019 version of Shaq and Penny with Orlando.

TitanSlim Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Underrated part for Zion going to NO is that he gets to have Aaron Nelson as his trainer. That should hopefully play a big role for his injury prevention and durability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champ11 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 NO is objectively the worst market in the NBA so it's a pretty rough result for the casual NBA fan and NBA. But chaos factor is very high. I hate the Lakers bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
