On the other hand Time Lord, Al, and Gordo isn’t.Jaylen, Jayson, and Zion is a fun young team.
OTOH, a guy who is good vs a guy who might be good.There may be, but I'd still rather start with a #4 pick under team control longer than with a guy with question marks and two years used up.
How do you match his salary, though? He makes more than Davis and presumably you're not giving up Brown or Tatum.Ja to Memphis, Conley to Boston? He’d be perfect there...:
Pretty much impossible to make the cap work there.Ja to Memphis, Conley to Boston? He’d be perfect there...:
I agree on Tatum, but there’s zero chance the Pels prefer Jaylen to the Memphis pick.Crazy. Maybe, maybe you would want Ja or RJ more than Tatum but not the 4th pick.
Jaylen, Jayson, and Zion is a fun young team.
And was pretty clearly joking because nobody, not even Billy King, is trading away the rights to Zion Williamson?Did you miss that he was talking about getting AD and Zion, not just AD?
Conley would be a good acquisition for the Celtics if Kyrexit. He doesn't dominate the ball, and has been making other Grizzlies better for a decade.On the bright side, Ja Morant means a Conley trade and some short term scuffling by the Grizz.
This is the perfect opportunity for the Pelicans to reset, and build young around Zion.They rather have a cost controlled Tatum and more draft picks to surround Zion.
Some team that loses out in free agency.memphis will not trade conley what teams will take that contact
Suit up in green on opening night!What does AD do?
i thrount conley had 2 years left most of the griz fan base love the grit and grind stuff i e all Def no Off Conley has also had inj worreys the last couple of yearsOnly one year left. He is almost certainly gone at the deadline, if not earlier.
Why is anyone even discussing NO trading Zion?Did you miss that he was talking about getting AD and Zion, not just AD?
Conley has 2/67 left.Only one year left. He is almost certainly gone at the deadline, if not earlier.
Because I only make sarcastic posts.Why is anyone even discussing NO trading Zion?
Same thing he was always going to do. Go to LA next summer.What does AD do?
I think it’s close. Pels in great position with Zion in the fold and 3 big markets all vying for AD with real assets.It gets you seven years of either Barrett or Calvert to go along with everything else the Lakers have.
A bigger issue is that the Knicks can bundle Knox, DSJ, #3, and future picks which might be the best package of all. Williamson/Knox/Barrett is a pretty good alignment at the 2/3/4.
I figured. But it somehow led to actual conversationBecause I only make sarcastic posts.
There is a downside to LA not winning the lottery. Would’ve been fun to see Magic scramble to get his old job back.
And give up his epic Twitter feed? Unlikely.There is a downside to LA not winning the lottery. Would’ve been fun to see Magic scramble to get his old job back.
It definitely seems like a Billy King thing to do though. Lol.And was pretty clearly joking because nobody, not even Billy King, is trading away the rights to Zion Williamson?
He would, but from a salary cap POV, virtually impossible to achieve.Conley would be a good acquisition for the Celtics if Kyrexit.
Depends. Does he make more as the #1 pick or at Duke?Zion should go back to Duke. This is gonna be Mike Trout in Anaheim. He’ll be a human highlight reel on a bad team that no one watches.
He would think the longest about it, for sure.It definitely seems like a Billy King thing to do though. Lol.
You could probably also somehow get a pick swap out of the deal, too.It definitely seems like a Billy King thing to do though. Lol.
I mean an unprotected ‘21 New York first is by far the most valuable trade asset there is, and they can add more picks to that.I think it’s close. Pels in great position with Zion in the fold and 3 big markets all vying for AD with real assets.
Why does everyone think New Orleans is a bad landing spot for Zion?Zion should go back to Duke. This is gonna be Mike Trout in Anaheim. He’ll be a human highlight reel on a bad team that no one watches.
Depends on what they can do in FA. That pick could either be great or meh. The Memphis pick has far more certainty.I mean an unprotected ‘21 New York first is by far the most valuable trade asset there is, and they can add more picks to that.
But, the bad side is Memphis getting to #2 gets them Barrett who might not necessarily land with a bottom 6 record.3 goals heading into tonight:
#1 - ensure Philly didn’t luck into Zion.
#2 - ensure the #1 pick team couldn’t/wouldn’t trade for AD.
#3 avoid Memphis conveying.
Amazing night. Ensures Tatum is the major asset only heading for AD and we keep Memphis pick for future assets.
Rookie RJ Barrett won’t make one iota of a difference next year. And I think they go Morant.But, the bad side is Memphis getting to #2 gets them Barrett who might not necessarily land with a bottom 6 record.
They gotta go Morant with Conley aging.But, the bad side is Memphis getting to #2 gets them Barrett who might not necessarily land with a bottom 6 record.
Reports are already out that AD still wants to be traded. He’s gone.You guys seem surprisingly confident that NO will still trade AD. That seems odd. If anything this greatly enhances the possibility that he stays there.
How do you figure?3 goals heading into tonight:
#1 - ensure Philly didn’t luck into Zion.
#2 - ensure the #1 pick team couldn’t/wouldn’t trade for AD.
#3 avoid Memphis conveying.

My man. I love you, but you're crazy.If I were them I would rather have the #4 than Tatum and wouldn't even think about it.
I think it's just the opposite. I think it pretty much guarantees that he's traded.You guys seem surprisingly confident that NO will still trade AD. That seems odd. If anything this greatly enhances the possibility that he stays there.
He was upset with them already--and now Zion is gonna be marketed like crazy. He's gone.You guys seem surprisingly confident that NO will still trade AD. That seems odd. If anything this greatly enhances the possibility that he stays there.
Yeah, this is easy for Pelicans. You got Zion. You now trade AD for another package of youth and build around Zion, AD trade haul, and 2020 pick. This couldn’t have gone any better for them.He was upset with them already--and now Zion is gonna be marketed like crazy. He's gone.
Easier for the GM to pull the trigger on an AD trade with Zion in the fold. Zion is already more marketable as the star of a franchise than AD was and Zion hasn’t played a game yet.You guys seem surprisingly confident that NO will still trade AD. That seems odd. If anything this greatly enhances the possibility that he stays there.
Why? AD wants to be on a legit contender, not a bottom-half-of-the-playoffs Western Conference also-ran, which is what they would be if he stayed with Zion.You guys seem surprisingly confident that NO will still trade AD. That seems odd. If anything this greatly enhances the possibility that he stays there.
