I mean I appreciate BI for his contributions and being a borderline all star wing with the Pels. However, I agree it’s time. It’s almost like when we traded David West or Jrue. I have love for the guy but we are going in a different direction. We have to get Trey in the starting lineup along with a real PG and athletic shot blocking C.


Us trading BI is nowhere near the same as us trading DX or Jrue.

For starters, we didn't even trade West, he left via free agency. Regardless, they left because we were in the midst of a total overhaul.

This current iteration of the Pels that may or may not trade BI is supposed to be a contender right now. If we trade BI, it won't be for rebuild pieces, it will theoretically be for pieces that can help us win right now, because we don't have that much time left to figure this out with Zion.

They probably have a 3 year window with Zion once they move on from Ingram. He's going to have to get his shite together and lead the team through the playoffs as soon as next season or the Pelicans will be in a very rough spot. Gambling on Zion is the right move but it's still a very risky move. They can't build around him forever if he can't prove he can stay healthy and play in the playoffs consistently, we're pretty much fricked.

Agreed. He's the only way we can have a top 5-10 NBA player on our roster right now.

It is well known CJ doesn’t think Willie is a good head coach.
Based on?

That may be your belief and you may have seen a random Twitter person or 2 say it, but it's certainly not well known.
