I didn't think my OP was that cryptic.

Sorry, so to clarify.

It's hard to believe that a franchise with Chris Paul, Anthony Davis and Zion Williamson at individual times was only able to surpass the 50 win mark once in 21 years.

Not sure about Paul, but the other two were considered to be generational talents by most on draft night.

supe12sta12z is right though. NOLA has been a farm team for the big cities since its inception. And its not the only one either.

What irks me is that our best players in that timeframe have all had success when they left us:

- Baron Davis led the 8 seed Warriors to an upset of the Mavs
- Chris Paul became point god and has played forever
- DWest won a couple championships as a reserve player
- Tyson Chandler won a championship with the Mavs
- Eric Gordon played a key role on several WCF teams
- Toni won a championship (even though it was a bubble win)
- Jrue won a championship immediately after he left.

We literally have nothing to show for having all these great players come through the organization.

no it's not... unless of course, you don't actually watch basketball...

this has been one of the absolutely worst run organizations, historicially, in the history of the NBA... sure, we've had a few great players, but having 1 great player every few years, for a few years, really doesn't matter when that star player is consistently injured, and that's been the knock on 2 of the 3 star players we've had

When you consider players like Chris Paul, Anthony Davis and Zion Williamson have graced this city.



50 games.
last season Vegas predicted 44.5. did not hit it as both Williamson and ingram were out.

there was one team with Davis and Jrue that won over Portland. was San Antonio still big dog or was curry and Klay.
you can be really good and not win 50.

or be memphis with 50 wins again but missing your center and a back up big boy and get pushed around inside and lose .

Your working is off. Davis didn't grace this city. He shite on it. Zion is marinating in it.

Who needs a scouting department when you trade all your picks for Omer Asik


Who needs Omer Asik when your bitch boy 6'11" star finally admits he might be a modern day NBA center? A role he graciously accepted when Lebron asked him to
