TBD


Zion could've had his foot amputated this season and it still would've been a no-brainer to give him the max this past offseason.

We're a small market franchise, we have to take those gambles because it's the only way we will have any chance of getting all star talent without a trade. Same reason why we have to to re-sign BI.

We've never had a player of his caliber choose to sign his 2nd extension/3rd contract with us.


We've also never had stability in the organization.

Dont really see any huge hangup

Things seemed pretty stable in 2018. Traded for Boogie, swept portland... and then boom... AD requests a trade out of nowhere.

One would hope that “All Star” talent is a player that can actually show up and perform at least half the time …

Better than not having all star talent at all.

The alternative is much worse.

Weight clause helped
I'm guessing you don't know the parameters of the clause?

It didn't help at all. Nothing will ever happen with the weight clause.

Things change quickly

Plus other stars have left stable organizations instead of signing up that 2nd extension.

Just simply asked a question, doesn't takeaway from my enjoyment of this season.

But by all means, clutch your pearls.

Take it for what you will, I have talked to his dad after the games and he says BI really loves it here in New Orleans. Said he was very unhappy in LA but has been genuinely happy here
