Lakers didn’t have Reaves and LeBron that game.

and Hawks still had good players like Okongwu and Dyson Daniels at least.

The Hawks are actually a good team with depth, the Pelicans aren’t

The Lakers could win this game with literally no effort. Did you see the FG% of the Pels last night. We shot like 27% the first quarter.

Lakers are gonna barely win. Watch.

Bronny is out, too. With Lebron and Marcus Smart.

Clippers for sure .. mainly cause OKC owns the pick and they basically created another dynasty

I mean, Clippers all the way. We don’t have a 26 pick but everything after that is ours IIRC. Queen and Fears look legit and we also have Trey and Herb who everyone wants to trade for (if the rumours are to be believed). They also fit the Queen/Fears timeline if we decide to hold onto them.

If we can massage Zion’s trade value to something not terrible then I would almost be happy? Satisfied?

The 2026 pick is gone and there is no point dwelling on it now.

The worst part of our future is we have Dumars and Weaver running the show. But I don’t have to tell you about that…

I would say Clippers but not by much. As a pels fan we have a few young guys that really could be some all stars in a few years. So there’s at least some light moving forward. The Clippers look more like a retirement home.

The Clippers, only because their regular starters are closer to the end of their careers, than the beginning, like the Pelicans are.

Clippers don’t have their own pick next year either

This should not be a question. Clippers are healthy. Pelicans have a lot of their cap space out for long periods due to injures.

Clips

Both organizations should do a whole team swap. Lets see which is more cursed

Pelicans.

Clippers could clear their entire salary, and go out in free agency and build a competent team.

Pelicans no matter what they do, can’t do that.

Clippers know how to put a roster together, they just took some gambles, those gambles backfired and now they are in a period with very limited resources.

Pelicans just waste any gifts they get.

What does dick size have to do with basketball?

You mean 20 point Pelicans win where Saddiq Bey and Micah Peavy combine for 60.

One of them is gonna have a career numbers too lmao. You just know it.

Unfortunately it’s gonna be like lakers by 4

Has too.

Yeah but having the only other guy that can stretch the floor in Trey Murphy out yesterday made it a toss up. I think the Pels gave it all on the warriors and Tonight is just fodder. Lakers by 45 and Luka goes for 75

As a pels fan, we are always tanking. More like a sinking ship with no life boats. A couple life vest with the 3 rooks but not enough to keep us afloat

Dude I’d cry with joy

The rookies Fears, Queen and Peavy, our best player this season Saddiq Bey, Yves Missi, Bryce McGowens who’s probably going to start again, Alvarado, Looney, Deandre Jordan.

College Looney inc

As a fan of a perennially shit team that doesn’t play defense, this shit is soooo frustrating to watch tho lmfao. Regularly watch bums averaging 8 points a game drop 20.

All of this to say, the reason bums score on the lakers is because they don’t play defense either ; )

More like Luka for 75 and Reaves for 50 Lakers win by 45

Thank you, u/heatfan

They’ll feast for sure.
