LET'S GET IT Y'ALL

 

If the Pelicans won't change, atleast we gotta change

 

My problem with the move and other moves is Zion, a fukking 3rd year player, is apparently too good to go through the ups and downs any #1 Pick goes through?????

The coaching changes I'll give him. But, NO has been trying.

 

Man... I hope Lowry don't end up here. I ain't about Griff saving his job with a bullshyt 7th seed run and being lottery team for another 4 years.

Give me Brogdon, man.

 

So much shyt was happening, I didn't know who we actually drafted to play for us

 

Na man!!!!!

it’s deeper than that


Y’all or WE have Zion and that’s my coli Bron/Kobe


Preciate the invite…… I didn’t even see the draft last night

(Bull shyt ass job)


So I gotta catch up with all the NBA moves today

 

They drafted Herb Jones to boast their G league team in Birmingham. What a shyt show draft.

 

Would y’all do a sign and trade with ball for kuzma and Montez? Just checking

 

Y'all just gone hoard Beal to yourself...?

 

y’all coming off Zion?

 

Aren't we both farm teams? So... Eventually

 

Nah Herb is legit breh: 6'8 wing with a 7 foot wingspan who was SEC DPOY and Player of the year. As far as 2nd round picks who might actually go on to do something in the league and not just wash out within ~3 years like 99% of guys picked after #30 do he fits the prototypical mold. You can't be getting this aggy about a guy like that picked 35th overall when this franchise's most notable 2nd round picks the past decade been Cheick Diallo and Frank Jackson.

 

I already knew that nikka would be in here complaining

 

Ummm... This is probably the deepest draft in a long time. I liked a bunch of 2nd round guys. JT Thor, Butler, Cooper, and Herb. Especially, Butler because he fell for medical.

I was referring to this, mostly. And trading picks for cash... Which we've done a lot the past two season.

Cash considerations don't win you any games. And we don't have a good bench. So, it's quite frustrating we aren't trying to do something about that.
