[quote]I'm not even sure I want Allen. The rising cap is the only thing that makes me consider it. But the Pels either need a unicorn that fits perfectly with Zion, or a center committee of 3 that costs $30 or less total. Allen is neither a unicorn or cheap enough to be part of the center committ...

[quote]This is the heart of our disagreement. He was exactly himself. He played the exact same way he plays every time he goes up against Dort, Dillon Brooks, Anunoby, and anyone else who plays aggressive defense. He does not leave his comfort zone, even when it would greatly benefit the team. His i...

Fair, Zion should be our best player and when healthy and in shape is. Over the last five years, the majority of that time that was not the case and it was Bi....

PS- at this point last year, the board bashed CJ for his end of year play, even though he was playing through two different hand injuries. He came back and was arguably the best three point shooter in the league this season. Let’s try to not be so extreme, though yes, I realize this is a message b...

I’m guessing y’all are misunderstanding me. There’s no question Zion is our best player. He should be our best player. But he essentially hasn’t played in three of the last five seasons. And for the majority of last season was woefully out of shape. Over the last five seasons, BI has been the g...

[quote]Good Lord! 40 million for an oft injured, pouty, one way player who can only manage 14 a game in the playoffs is insane.[/quote] BI’s playoff averages are 21.5, 5.5 and 5, and that’s while playing the last four on a pretty scary knee injury. And since coming to NO his per 36 has been 24...

[quote]It's very possible that the best offer looks something like Brogdon, Robert Williams and #7. But there is nothing funny about paying Ingram 40 million a year and pretending it is a good deal.[/quote] $40 million for Bi would be a great deal. It’s the $52 average that gets real dicey....

[quote]Proposal from Bleacher Report today: Pelicans get: Dejounte Murray, Bogdanovic Hawks get: Ingram, Dyson Daniels, 2025 1st round pick (most favorable of Lakers and Pels picks) I like the trade but would prefer not to give up the rights to Lakers pick. If Lebron goes elsewhere that will be a...

Sarr will be good by the time Zion is leaving. And that assumes he’s ever good. No one trades a first team defensive player shooting over 40% from three that can handle the ball and on a great contract for a hope and prayer down the road. That’s not even touching on the fact that Bi for Murray an...

CJ is your guard, at least for a season. A CJ, Herb, Trey, Zion and Kat lineup puts four massively plus shooters around Zion. And I can’t see how Trey and Kat over BI and Jonas hurts your defense. 3 PT % last season: CJ- 42.9% Herb- 41.8% Trey- 38% Kat- 41.6% If Trey is your least prod...

I think something that needs to be discussed is Atlanta’s financials. I just find it difficult to imagine them being willing to max BI with Trae’s contract on the books. It’s not impossible, but it does seem a bit fiscally irresponsible. They already have a ton of money committed to others. You ...

[quote]I think if CJ goes to the Magic he's worth one of Isaac or Anthony and a 1st at a minimum. Trades i've seen for Garland is Isaac/Anthony/2 1sts. CJ is coming off a monster year shooting the ball, and doesn't look like he's slowing down.[/quote] I agree entirely, just trying to avoid the p...

[quote]Does losing BI, CJ, Larry, and Dyson/Hawkins, plus picks For Trae and Capela really make us any better?[/quote] I’m not sure where all of that extra came from. Something would come from third team for CJ. And the Pels would add, but I’m not sure why we are throwing in Larry for example....

[quote]I think it’s less about that and more about, if Trae is here then we HAVE to get a defensive 5. We won’t have any other salary to really use other than CJ[/quote] You are definitely trading CJ if you acquire Trae, likely in the same trade to a third team. And though Capella isn’t the most...

[quote]This post is just as stupid as the arguments you dont like. Inflating his stats per 36 I found is a silly concept mainly because it’s automatically assuming a player will play that way for 36 minutes- which they never do.[/quote] This completely misses the purpose and shows a lack of under...
