I thought a poster made mention that tax day, for seasons, is at the trade deadline. Not for sure....

re: ScoopB: All of the Brandon Ingram offers are “crap”

[quote]but none of this, if he's stat chasing to get that max, is likely to happen[/quote]
I wouldn't put BI, or for that matter Zion as stat chasers. Actually been kind of the problem, a lot of us would like them to be a bit more. Pels have a mismatch at positions aside from the post each nigh...

re: Griff: BI is "mechanically incapable" of being traded under the new CBA rules
Posted by Pistol44 on 7/17/24 at 8:24 pm
If you poll coaches, availability trumps talent. This is a big reason for BI’s predicament. Zion is even less available, while Tatum and Brown who I view as lesser combined talents than Husky and Slim are workhorses....
re: Anybody else just wanna give this roster 20 games before thinking of trades?
Posted by Pistol44 on 7/13/24 at 10:41 am
Pels need a 5. I like Karlo, and Theis provides good perimeter defense and some rim protection. Messi was lost in his first action, which is understandable, but didnt see the athleticism everyone was talking about. Good thing is Griff has a profile (long and athletic) but also need someone who is ...

re: NBA Offseason officially kicks off, Ingram’s days in NOLA coming to an end per Stein

[quote]BI for Lavert and JA still works[/quote]
I don't think Allen or Mobley are going anywhere, but if Spyder signs long term with Cavs, they'll move Garland and want a return. Pels don't need Garland obviously but could get another team involved for an asset it needs....

[quote]What lineups are playing the majority of the minutes together is way more important than who is penciled in as the starter.[/quote]
Except for Val, Coach Green gives starters significant minutes. Team is still imbalanced, favoring wings. Losing Dyson and maybe Naji too they still need to t...

Good trade, although Pels lose their small ball big 'Thanks Larry' they add talent at a position of need and keep their depth except at the pivot. ...

For sure, wtm? I think Griff made some poor personnel choices, but the Pels have increased win totals each year. Can’t argue that with hypotheticals....
re: Why would the Pelicans move C.J. ? I don’t think he goes anywhere anytime soon.

Both Zion and BI had fairly healthy years and CJ led team in FGA. I don’t believe he views himself as a third option....

[quote]Where does it say that Borrego created an offense for BI to play point?[/quote]
I believe at media day it was reported that BI would be the facilitator in JB's offense. A couple of months into the season Zion questioned his role in the offense. A couple of weeks before the All-Star Break ...

[quote]It’s kind of close to it[/quote]
Pels leaked BI-WG squabble in the OKC series. Some on this board purport BI didn't want to run Borrego's offense. Poster ErikGorden summed it up well. Just doesn't hold water, not a big thing just poster dribble. ...

Clearly CJ was the #1 option by his FGA ....:lol: #1 Job of the primary facilitator is to get the ball to your top scorers. BI and Zion are scorers for sure, however neither have been able to hold up physicall...
