If Zion gets moved by David Griffin, yall will never see me on this board again. How he still has any authorization is beyond me.

I don’t see Griff moving Zion tomorrow unless there’s a deal he can’t turn down (don’t think that’s gonna happen) . CJ and Jose are more likely

The thing to take from Haynes is there is interests in Jose and CJ.

The Zion thing is just fluff.

Mark my words, if we move Zion, we will have the 1st pick in the draft. I don't see us trading Zion at this point though.

Jose should be untouchable unless we are getting 2 firsts back

Trading Jose is like trading Taysom Hill. Not many trade offers are going to make sense for the overall value that they bring to the organization, fanbase, etc.

I think I’d trade Jose for just one first depending from who and the protections or lack thereof on it. But I get keeping him. He does have 2 years left on his contract too.

I don't think they will move Zion. Until we find out, it's about our lottery pig this year

Not really worried about Jose right now.

Interested in big salaries , Zion and CJ.

Trade and get picks for future. Long as current GM and coach in place, I have no hope for deep playofff runs.

I would like to see some Hershel Walker type deal for him. I can’t believe how many people wants to keep him. He’s consistently out of shape and doesn’t play enough

I just want him gone. I was actually up for cutting him at the end of the year. If some other team wants to give up real value, then I'm all for it.

I hate the Lakers, but it would be fascinating for him to be moved there. Pairing him with Luka would be a massive story. They are brand mates, roughly the same age, and have similar issues/with incredible talent. It's honestly the best opportunity to salvage Zions career. We could move him for Reaves, Hachimura, and Williams (from the Hornets). I'd like that move..

You were up for cutting Zion.... but then list why he would be really valuable to another team. Do you understand how this all works?

If you actually watch the clip he awkwardly stumbles his way to saying Zion is a hot commodity as if he were trying to think of something nice to say. I think he wasn’t ready for a question about Zion and made a mischaracterization of the situation.

Personally I don't really care about Zion anymore. He's proven he can't be counted on to be a star player and be available for the team. He's been really good in most games he's played in but potential isn't winning this team anything.

He's played in 191 of the 427 regular season games since being drafted. At this point you know what you have in him. It's not going to miraculously change or improve.

That would be awful. .50 cents on the dollar type of deal

The Lakers are out of firsts. Just because the mavs are too retarded to get multiple picks for luka doesn't mean we can be too.

Thats where we are at. His value is low. Only a team like the Lakers would be willing to trade good assets for him. He's never going to bust out here. This would be his best shot to reclaim his game. If you like him (i dont particularly care about him) and want any success for him, you have to pull for a deal like this.

They just traded Knecht and a 1st for Williams. So that is basically two firsts. Reaves is a solid starting SG on an attractive deal. That is worth possibly 2 1sts. Hachimura is a decent rotational big and would play a ton here, plus he would give us marketing rights to the biggest player in Japan. That has to be worth something. Its not a shite deal. That is solid value and more than any other team could give us.

Great, tear this shite down to the studs.

Zion and CJ gotta go.

We’re stuck with Murray’s contract for at least a couple years.

Jose I can be talked into trading depending on the return.

Herb and Trey are available for a godfather offer only
