and there's no big "FA" talent this year for it to be worth it to win out and lose out on a top 5 pick that can land us a good starting caliber sf or sg when we flip EG in the summer

Use your brain man. Have you seen our schedule. Two games against the heat, another against the grizzlies. Another against the clippers and lakers. We are winning 6 more games max. And that's a good thing. Sacramento never got their franchise player. We did. And we have young pieces around him. We need to get one more. Then make some moves in the off season, and our push for a title begins. You have two choices, keep hoping for the impossible or be smart and look to the future

True at the moment, perhaps, but become a contending franchise with money to spend and that will change. Not suggesting N.O. will ever be NY or LA, but winning changes everything.

This is true but look at San antonio. they develop players, you dont really see them going out and getting big names every year. That is what we will have to be like.

You do realize saying this is as absurd as saying what I said, right? Because we are only 12 or so games back with 21 to play. It is still mathmatically doable.

Yeah, you're right. Lets keep tanking and signing draft picks like last year when we had two top ten picks. Constantly drafting top picks doesn't mean anything. Ask Sacramento how that works.
It worked for OKC.

I'd like more chances in the lottery myself.
