NBA Season 2018/19

Hahaha Valk identical!

All of a sudden the AD saga gets a lot more interesting

[LaHug]

Surely AD still wants out... My guess is that Lakers offer something like Pick 4 and 2 of Lonzo, Ingram, Kuzma

[R.Griffen]

So what happens after pick 1? Conley has a massive deal at Memphis so either him or Morant would have to play the 2. Or they go RJ, meaning Knicks can get Morant but the trade getting DSJ is now a waste and the franchise is looking worse than 12 months ago

They were saying on the broadcast that NOP are still adamant they want to convince AD to stay, so landing Zion surely helps their case

That said, if he still wants to walk, NOP are going to get everything they get for him plus Zion so overall they look to be in a pretty good spot future wise

Pretty sure they'll grab Morant and make it work - Conley and Morant

Lots of reports saying that AD still wants out - this doesn't change a thing.

[LaHug]

I reckon the one thing it changes is that the Pelicans should trade Jrue for a good haul of assets too (if they can get it) and grow a team together from the ground up. Imagine a young core of Lonzo, Ingram, Zion, whoever they get for Pick 4, and two more young 1st-3rd year players as Jrue trade. Would be incredible to build that core together for 3 years

They still have Zion so it’s the best situation if he was gonna leave anyway

Ball, Ingram, Pick 4 (Hunter), Zion and ?

Would have to do something with Holiday Jackson, Johnson, Randle and Okafor. However the starting line up becomes 1000x better

[jvalles69]

Trade Randle back to Lakers for double the price, lol.

[RaisyDaisy]

Lol some idiot got a tattoo of the Knicks logo with Zion on it before the lotto lol what a goose

Speaking of Zion he looked gutted - his body language was clear he wanted to head to NY  and not NOP at all lol

Reading reports that Zion has an option to go back to College (cos he doesn't have an agent right now).

That would be brutal for Pelicans.

I don't think he'll do it because the financial risk is too high. I'm sure Nike has a big fat contract waiting for him.

Yeah that’s true under the new rules, no way he turns down the NBA though

[RaisyDaisy]

If every game is going to be like this, then the Bucks Raptors series is going to be awesome

Lowry and Lopez were huge

Going to be a cracking series

[TomK]

Ughhhh that 4th quarter offence was disgraceful, Lowry went 5/7 in the 4th, the rest of the team went 0/15, just awful.
