bruceb Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 The NBA, a team or a fan-base should have sued James, et al., for violation of federal antitrust laws when he and buddies put the MIA team together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when they are operating outside of the terms of a CBA to which they are parties. iirc, Gilbert considered this line of attack.

At which point he spoke to an attorney who likely told him the only thing that happened was James bruised his ego publically. James taking less to play where he wanted is no different than any vet who’s bought out at the deadline choosing to take less to ring chase.

big poppa pump Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 It really would be nice to get Zion Williamson next year!!! Not sure if RJ Barett is a good enough consolation prize. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't the highlight real freak but he shoots better from the outside, he passes the ball better, you can run an offense through him. I think Zion is the hype pick, but I think Barrett is the point forward defend anyone on the floor player you can build around in todays NBA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might actually prefer we miss out on the 1st overall pick and get Barrett instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2ThaIzzo Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Zion Williamson is easily the best player that will be in this NBA draft class. Setting aside the outside shooting numbers, which, by the way, Barrett isn't lighting the court on fire from outside by any means, the impact Zion has on the game defensively is going to be just as valuable as anything he ends up becoming offensively.
