It seems that AD will not join us, so can we consider Mirotic&Miller?

    None of these guys except AD will get us over the hump. Clearly none of you watch our biggest enemy play basketball, the All-NBA Warriors.

    If we trade for another non-legit all-star, we're going to be going nowhere in the playoffs. The Warriors have no weakness now and they have been red hot ever since Boogie came back from injury. He's looked like his old self plus he can actually hit 3s.

    Is this a cleverly disguised DMo thread? If so, I can play that game also.

    Rockets drafted Nikola Mirotic traded to the Bulls, Donatas Montiejunas was drafted by the Timberwolves traded to Houston. I don't know what the Wolves get.

    Donatas "If you are scared of Wolves don't go to the Woods"

    How exactly is Morey supposed to acquire Anthony Davis?

    Mirotic went to the Pelican swamp and got decent.

    4 1sts and Capela bruh c'mon. That's the ultimate trump move according to some on here. Oh yea, don't forget about getting Kuzma for CP3 because screw the collective bargaining agreement amirite?

    Pelicans want Lonzo Ball, Kyle Kuzma, Ivica Zubac and a 1st Rd Pick for Anthony Davis

    Of course! New Orleans is chomping at the bit for our offensively challenged center and low first round draft picks. I'm sure they will send their franchise player directly to us.

    Have you seen what Holiday can do with a center like Capela though? That tandem should help the Pelicans rebuild in no time flat.

    If you had to put a gun to Dell Demps' head and ask him which player he would want to build his team around in 2 years, it wouldn't be Ball, Ingram, Kuzma, Zubac or Capela. He would adamantly say "Whoever my successor drafts in 2021 with the 30th pick".

    Not if they can deal for similarly expiring contracts plus attached assets, namely picks.

    Wasn’t Portis the ‘power’ forward in Chi?

    The problem with Mirotic is he’s expiring and the Pels are going to want nothing to do with Knight’s contract.

    There’s really no way to get him without giving up current rotation player(s).

    All I ever hear from you is “defense... defense” and you want Mirotic? Really
