Griff placed the team in salary cap hell by extending CJ and Larry. There is minimal salary flexibility to improve next year. Any improvements have to come from the draft , Z and Dyson.
The Portland trade will haunt the Pels. Griffin attempted to rush the development to save his azzzzz. The fan base has been lied to by Griffin especially about Gayle's willingness to pay the tax.

Wouldn't you rather still have Hart and not CJ?

CJ has been well worth his salary, it's really not close.

I feel like you're living in a world where you think Giannis or someone of that caliber would actually have any chance in hell of being traded to the Pelicans.

I still have a hard time fathoming how fans of this team can not like CJ/see how good he has been.

He has seriously been the best three point shooter in all of the NBA this year. Only Pels "fans" could consider getting a guy who turned into the best 3 point shooter in the NBA on a three year deal as a trade that will haunt the team. I swear man
