I think the last two picks could be huge value in two years CP3 will be old. Davis could walk to LA. Rockets could be in the lottery for the last two. Also we know pelicans don’t want Gordon and Tucker. But that doesn’t mean another team in playoffs wouldn’t want them.if we trade them for first round picks, we could offer up to 6 first rounders.
LA is delusional thinking NO would trade them AD without getting Kuzma back. NO delusional thinking it can ask for every young player they have plus picks. New York delusional thinking they'll get AD and add Irving or Durant also. Everyone is delusional until they aren't.
They don’t. How can you think Pelicans would want to take CP3’s contract? Seriously man. I’m not even knocking CP3s game. On what planet would a general manager with New Orleans roster take back Chris Paul’s contract in year 1 as a major piece when you’re giving up AD. This thread was very unwarranted but you making a point like that gives it some validity.
The story then was that Westbrook "had no help" -- not that Oladipo was a clear star being held back by Westbrook.
What I find hilarious is that OP calls Chriss and Knight trash (which as of now is admittedly true) but says they also wouldn't want CP3 (aging top 5 PG) or Ego (at the very least a high quality role player) because they are rebuilding in the same post. You know how teams rebuild? By trotting trash out on the floor and tanking for a top 5 pick. I would say that trotting out a lineup of Chriss and Knight would be one of the quickest ways to tank for Zion.
Capela is far better than all of those 'stars'. Doesn't really mean that he's great either. He's good But not great and he's still better.
what if we throw in the rights to Sergio Llull? lmao... no Rockets poopoo platter is complete without...
This! All parties want to win and will offer delusional packages until one of them gets accepted. Pelicans should and probably will wait it out.
You didn't do that. All you did is state your opinion as fact and now you're acting like you asked those questions of writers? Put down the coke. If homeboy needs to put down a delusional drug, then you need to put down the one that's giving you this god complex.
LOL so if you had the 2nd pick in the draft would you trade that for 14th and 22? 2nd can give you Zion, 14th and 22nd can be this drafts Jeremy Lamb and Zhou Qi. Even if you attach 4 low first rounders in 4 years doubt anybody takes that deal. Low first rounders are vakuavle but probably mot valuable enough to trade up a lotto pick IMHO.
