I honestly think Murray can be that guy, but he’s new and he’s not playing that well. Has made it a bit awkward so far.

Has Murray been that guy in his previous 2 stops ?

Do you think Murray can be that guy bc Griff said he could/would?

Imo if the Pels had that guy anywhere in the organization Zion wouldn’ t be in the spot he’s in , and if he was in fact hurt he’d still be sitting on the bench supporting the team each game , especially at home . He was again not there last night .

Obviously I’d prefer Flagg but Harper would be an amazing get at number 2 and I don’t see us sucking worse than the Wizards.


But Harper might be the move anyway considering we are dumping BI and CJ soon. We get Harper, you can nab Boozer or AJ next year and pair them with Harper. Harper and AJ with Murray, Herb, Trey, Missi and you might be onto something

If you didn’t pay a attention the #1 pick was special the year we got Zion , the #1 pick was special the year we got AD , the draft was special the year we got cp3 yeah ya see the trend ? IT DONT MATTER

Hell yes. Before this game I had him #7 on my big board.

Can see him going top 5 when it's all said in done. This class is insanely fun and deep

Got to see what Bailey can do without playing second fiddle to Harper tonight and I'm impressed. He's worthy of a top 3 pick. And I would be happy with one of Flagg, Harper, or Bailey.

That Bailey tape against Indiana got me excited. He probably has the highest ceiling out of all 3 of these guys. With good development he can be the best player in this class. Will still be 18 on draft night too.

This draft class is deeeeeeep and as shitty as this season has been, if folks were paying attention to the team, THIS is the season to tank and get a potential franchise changer


Sounds like Griff screwed up giving our extra first this year in the Murray trade….

Ace baileys last handful of games has been really fricking good. Just scores 30 points tonight and 7 boards. Went 13/15 from the field. We gotta land top 3

Griff’s squandering of draft capital is pretty remarkable. Picks out for guys like Steven Adams and Devonte Graham, the malpractice of 4 overall for 8 and 17, picks sent out to guys like CJ and Murray that don’t make a difference.

It’s a shame because the one thing the Pels have done pretty well under Griff is draft

Bottom line...when pretty much NOBODY...wants your "Batman" OR "Robin"...you're not a threat to seriously contend for anything.

Because I think they're putting too much weight into "fit" instead of just taking the best player. Understandably, the Pels will always have to consider what a Flagg-type prospect will do if marooned on an island of shite bball like New Orleans

They took the best player in Dyson, and quire honestly they were correct.

Just like the saints, coaching plays a huge role in these guys too.
