The Ball may be gone, but the grass won't be Greener on the other side: NOLA Pelicans 2021-22 Thread

I’m just so puzzled at how all this shyt just went to hell.

Zion was supposed to be big for you, me, @NOSaintsFan02 and and others.

He was supposed to deliver us atleast 2 championships

Now he looking like he’s about to be the next Greg Oden

We also should’ve never let Lonzo go either

Stop it. He wanted out. Stop it.

The problem is Griffin dumb ass though CP3 or Lowry was coming here.

They all want out until you sweeten the deal and just come to an understanding

Griffin and co should’ve been more patient and worked it out

Three in a row

That January schedule looks brutal so now's the time to stack up these wins

We've been pretty good at staying COVID free so far. If that keeps up and other teams continue to have problems with it, we might catch some breaks next month.

Jinxed them

The last 19 games this team has been above .500

If it weren’t for such a putrid start they could be seeded rn

I still don't understand what he's thinking with either of them. Lowry looks super washed. CP3 was never gonna leave a finals team. It would of been absurd.

Yall know I ain't big on Ingram but bro has been balling lately. Him and Zion still aren't the best fit together imo.

Would y'all like D Fox if the Pels we're willing to part with Ingram to get him?

BI and Zion will be a fine fit once they implement a system that caters to both of their strengths.

For instance I think BI is a better compliment than D Fox, cuz Zion is gonna need spacing on the perimeter to operate that Fox won’t provide like BI. Plus Fox looks for his own shot just as much as BI.

And BI’s upside as a wing defender that can score is too valuable imo

BI finally put on weight and he's starting to become a solid defender.

We probably trade our bag of picks and Kira/Hayes for Fox.


But I see us going after a Patty Mills in FA or Malcolm Brogdon in trade. Our fit is a lead guard that can shoot 3s. So, I see fox as a hard sell atm.

Patty would be a perfect fit, Kevin Love also (his contract about to expire I think). If they can get D Fox for that, that's a huge win. That's a playoff team with Z, Ingram, and Fox

The Omarion variant finally 'Touch'd us
