How long do you want to suck?

I saw a kid, in the 2016 class, dunk in an all-star game on SC the other day... should they tank for him too? When does it end?

This franchise cant take 3 more years of being in the top end of the lottery... and Benson wont allow it. And Dell wont trade a "potential" all-star SG for the 5th pick in a weak arse draft

You guys have to realize that while we have been patient in our rebuild, guys like Anthony Davis wont be getting such a cheap salary forever.

You can't build entirely through just the draft if you want to win a title. You need a couple great draft picks that you can pay cheap for a few years and add that to some great Free Agents. This draft should be our last in the lottery.

So you would like to stick with EG and hope he plays plus build in FA?? Who is going to come here?? So we have to wait and build in the draft bc I don't see any STUDS wanting to be in NOLA

Plus in the next 2 years would you rather

A: EG our #6 and who knows? Def won't be championship caliber

B: #5 and #6 and most likely a top 5 pick in a loaded 2014 draft. We could have a very talented young team. Then you can lure veterans to NOLA
