Skip definitely had our back this morning, arguing that we should pair Zion with AD and we’d be a contender.

YouTube: Skip on Zion

It was refreshing that at least one prominent national figure wasn’t in complete melt mode over us snagging Zion.

He usually sings the Saints’ praises too, one of the best IMO

Adam Schein was saying we’d be a 5 seed at best with Jrue and AD teamed with Zion

Bill Simmons was also not totally opposed and didn't melt over it. He melted more over the Lakers moving up to 4, than the Pels landing 1 and Zion.

Honest question. Would we be a better team with Zion, Jrue, and Morant with some good traded players? Or would we be better with Zion, Ad, Jrue, and our current roster?

We’d be better sooner with our current core.

Lol, we were a six seed with Jrue and AD last year.

Adding Zion to the Pels would mean AT BEST we are a 5 seed?
Adam Schein sounds like a clown

Well, Rondo, Boogie and Niko helped us get to a 6th seed.

I mean, to an extent. We played amazing, if not better, without him due to Niko addition

That video shows how big an idiot Sharpe is too. He sounded like a Reddit Laker fan who has a tv show. Pitiful.

Listening to Shannon's "arguments" was really painful.

1 game away from the 3 seed too, I think?

Something like that.

The difference between the 3rd seed and 9th seed (outside the playoffs) was insanely small last season.

To be fair I think he said we would be at least a 5 seed. May have to go and re listen. It was in the first few min of the show

Can’t say for the Pels but Skip always takes up for the Saints when his idiot counterpart bad mouths us.

I think Skip defends New Orleans only because Shannon is so anti- New Orleans and of course they have to take opposite sides to have a debate show.(Although it is nice to hear someone take up for us whether it's legit or not).

Yeah, he made a pretty weak argument. Nothing about how it would take pressure off AD to be a 1-man-show. Nothing about the new GM or best trainer in the country joining the staff.

And? Is Alvin Gentry still the coach?
