Pels really are kinda fucked. None of their current young players scream potential superstar to build around, and the market value for Zion has to be at an all-time low.

Thehelloman0 | Spurs

Their GM is a complete moron. What kind of idiot offers up the better of two team’s picks unprotected, when neither of those teams is good, for the 13th pick ON TOP of the 23rd pick? Like it’s one of the stupidest trades I’ve ever seen and it was so obviously a stupid trade at the time.

It was so stupid that I was pissed off the trade was offered to the hawks instead of us because it was such an insanely lopsided trade. And the blazers, grizzlies, and bulls GMs are all morons for turning the trade down too.

Damn we really need the NBA to have a veto, in like a “no this is stupid, do better!” kind of way. Or just make it mandatory to send out a notification to all teams when a player can be traded so that you can weigh your options at least. So many GMs are so focused on what they want they actually don’t consider what they are offering and just ending the future of franchises.

Not even the process 6ers could tank against this Pels team

It’s a bunch of kids that have no clue what they’re doing (minus Queen and Fears) plus they just fired their HC and are working with a guy they know won’t be there for very long

EnvironmentUnfair743

You think Queen and fears know what they are doing though? Fears is chucking like crazy and Queen might be the worst defender in the NBA. Jordi wouldn’t be having it, those two have a lot of potential but they really need some leadership

I think both are extremely talented and will be cornerstones for their future.

Nix Claxton had his 2nd career triple-double, and also became the 2nd center in Nets’ franchise history with multiple triples doubles.

Any guess who is the 2nd one?

IT IS A VERY HARD ONE, just saying (I’ll reveal the answer later)

Edit: The answer is 7’6” SHAWN BRADLEY

Petering | Celtics

Derrick Coleman, Chocolate Thunder, or Kris Humphries

What if the Pelicans had just taken Wolf at #23 and kept the #1 pick in 2026? Is his ceiling really that much lower than Queen’s?

Watching Clax rack up ten easy assists through dribble hand-offs and MPJ’s gravity makes me start asking questions about Jokic stats inflation… 🤔

Fuck No.

Klay was never in his entire lige touted to be a number 1 draftpick even as a high schooler.

Back Injuries ruined MPJ’s trajectory

Ummm I don’t see what you are talking has much to do with what I am. I’m saying prime Klay would look like how Mpj is scoring right now.
