Ok I’ll say it. We should run it back and that includes Zion.

We no longer need a big name center because we have 3 young and improving bigs in Missi, Queen and Karlo. We just have to figure out how yo unload Poole’s contract and that opens up $30 million. We would have to take back another bad contract to unload him though.

Agreed. We need the young players to keep developing and add more shooters. We were a play-in team with everyone healthy and no Willie to start the year.

There’s no reason to give up something to move Poole. They just need to send him to someone wanting cap relief and see if we can get some more role players/shooting.

They’re satisfied just being in the club. Gayle loves these unconditional love type fans with zero expectations.

18.5 games back from 6th seed when like 10 teams are tanking. Run it back!!!

Do you people understand what Superstars that are Zions height actually do throughout the season. They have multiple skill sets. Dude has ONE made 3-pointer this season. He might finish 7 seasons in the NBA with thirty three - 3 pointers made. His salary is over $42 million dollars next season.

We have to stop thinking Pelicans good and get good NBA players, especially if you wanna pay them $42M to dunk

For all of those who want to get rid of all the players you say "suck" , what kind of return are you expecting for the player you say "suck"?

Get the next best thing without disrupting our core.
Trade Poole/ Hawk for Zach LaVine and add a center with our $15mil MLE this offseason.

DJ/ Fears/
Herb/ LaVine/ McGowens
Trey/ Bey/ Peavy
Zion/ Queen/ Karlo
Missi/ MLE/

Can still add a minimum PG/ C, Dickinson, or 2nd rd pick.

What is funny with this board is this hypothetical example will turn into fact at some point and when our front office doesn't make the trade, they will get mad
