I hope you're right too.

In an ideal world, we keep Jrue and trade Lonzo.
BI and Jrue are your primary facilitators on offense. Thing is, we've seen this from Jrue and he's just not consistent enough with it. When he's on, he's an allstar, but he has just as many all star like games as he has put him on the bench games he's turning the ball over so much.
If you have a lineup of Jrue/BI/Zion, then the other two guys have to be able to be a threat from 3.

I like Covington, but I'd rather put precedence on 3 point shooting than defense for that position if Jrue is still on the team. Jrue can effectively guard any wing player in the league. Covington really isn't a good 3 point shooter.
Lonzo for Cam Johnson or PJ Washington would be a nice trade for us.
I think Meyers Leonard is a guy we should be targeting in FA.
And i think we should be drafting a PG at 13, Kira/Terry/Maxey

Who we draft this year can really change the direction of this franchise if he turns out to be a legit starter.

I’m not worried about next season to be honest. Way too much competition. The Pelicans will likely be on the outside looking in which is fine as long as they make the necessary progressions to get to the next level. I think it’s a lot more important to develop Ingram and Zion’s half court game right now anyways since those two are definitely going to be together for the next 4-5 years. That and we need to find out where Lonzo’s development is by the end of the year since Griffin is hellbent on giving him every opportunity to be part of the future.
