THE PELS HAVE THE TWO BEST PLAYERS ON THE COURT. THEY NEED TO frickING ACT LIKE IT.
If we called Memphis and offered Ingram straight up for Bane, do they do it?
How about Zion for JJJ?

What lol?
Zion is much better than JJJ. JJJ yes is defensive player of the year, but hes foul prone, cant rebound and has his own injury issues. Plus hes not an elite scorer at all. Zion has top 10 best player in league potential.
Ingram is such a better scorer than Bane its not even funny.
Fellas, even Chuck mentioned last night if Zion is healthy we’re the x-factor team to be best in west. Pray Zion stays healthy!!

Sweet. That's good to know. Every ranking I've seen has that flipped. But I'm sure you unbiased belief makes that a fact. I looked forward to watching our Stars destroy those lesser players..

Theres rankings showing Bane higher than Ingram or JJJ over Zion?? Its not biased its common sense. You think a team with JUST Bane and JJJ can do anything in a full nba season? Come on man. What the hell are you arguing??!

If you swap out Ingram and Zion for Bane and JJJ, we would be a top 3 seed. Memphis is a top 3 projected record in the West (per Vegas) and that is with Morant missing 25 games, cause of Bane and JJJ. They have proved it multiple seasons in a row.
But I'll default to you on this that they are light years better..

Lol those are trade value rankings. Those aren’t the same as player rankings. Those rankings are strictly based off who’s a better trade asset, not who’s a better player. Dude the fact you provided this link shows me you have no idea what your talking about. Zion has health issues and is on a bigger contract so he may not be a better trade asset than JJJ but that DOES NOT mean he’s a lesser player. Yeah you should really understand what specific rankings your looking at.
You think with CJ Bane and JJJ we would be a top 3 seed??? Are you high right now????!
Memphis is not top 3 projected this year in a majority of projections due to injuries and Ja’s suspension. You should default to common sense. This argument is pure insanity and lack of any real basketball knowledge.

I'd luv to have Bane...almost as much as I woulda luved to have Mikal Bridges last year. Both would be very solid "fits" for the Pels. Take this however you wish.
I think JJJ is quite a bit overrated...at this point. Take this however you wish.
Now...let's move on...and get off to a good start tonight with a nice road win. I'll be loading the wagon...on the Pels tonight. Just too many factors point to the Pels winning this one.

I said trade. Look at my original statement. You said I was totally off base and no one would rank them that way.

No shite. That's the title of the article.

It kind of matters if he can't play. We can base everything off hopes and dreams.

If not, then Morant has to be the best player in the league. Somehow they keep getting high seeds built mainly around those 3.

You are right. I just checked. They are currently 5th or 6th (depending on the book). My bad.

Ok again you’re misunderstanding how trades work. Trades are suppose to make your team better. Just because you are trading for a better trade asset doesn’t mean you automatically make your team better. The whole point is making your team better. Trading for them wont make our team better.
Yeah but no shite genius using a trade asset ranking and saying we’re better with JJJ/Bane than Zion/BI makes absolutely no sense. That doesn’t make you a better team or more competitive. It just according to Bill Simmons makes you have better trade assets not a better team or even talent.
JJJ had health issues until last year when he was healthy. Bane was out for several games last year. Nobody is really healthy. But you dont just toss away players for lesser talents. This isnt Scoot or a rookie with potential to be a star. Bane and JJJ have likely reached their ceiling. Bane may get a bit better but no much.
Yes Morant is one of the best players in the league and constant MVP candidates. This is common sense.
