Well what have they done to prove me wrong. What have they done as an organization to say they are top tier other than be bad enough to get the first pick twice.

They had 2 HOF players that wanted out.
They've have complimentary pieces that either didnt want to be there or were traded.

They trade for cousins then dont even keep him.

They changed their name to the fukking Pelicans for crying out loud :mindblown:


You're a shyt poster, no cares about your opinion.

LOL, I have a career in medical, scrub. For the whole 1 year that he'll be with us playing from the bench because he's an above average defender because he hurts our spacing with his inconsistent 3pt shoot at sub 30s and can't hit free throws. I think I won't even know that he is here mainly because he can't stay healthy. He has 7'3" wingspan and plays like he has T Rex arms. What makes him a great match with Zion?

OH, what about that All Break run he had....

OH, for all whole 8 games of scoring a bunch points and doing jack shyt else with shyt efficiency on defense and still losing to bad teams that where tanking. I watch those games. Ingram wasn't special.

This gasing up/hustling bullshyt is getting old, man. There ain't fukking anything wrong with admitting that Ingram has been a disappointment for his expectations when drafted. Just hope a change of setting can help Ingram reach his potential and trade him on his last year.

Yall let Julius Randle walk, we picked him up, let him develop his game, had a real break out year, and every Laker fan trashed him on the way out. Yet, he had a better year than BI. You guys trash on Russell, Lopez, and etc when leaving fre agency. So, don't tell me a damn thing about knowing basketball, because you guys haven't done shyt in over 6 years.

If we have fix your organization fukk ups and turn these young players around to reach their potential. Cool. I'm still gonna call them what they are till they do it. Flawed young players that be coming off the bench on a good team
Oh know..a career in medical must mean you are a top expert in blood clots, my bad!!:mjlol::mjlol:Those multiple doctors saying Ingram is completely fine must be wrong because a dumbass from the internet said they are wrong!!! I feel bad for your patients if you truly have a career in any medical field.


Saying a 21 year old playing out of his mind isn't special is a easy way to expose yourself as a dumbass. Ingram also had more than 8 good games, he was playing good ball for 30+ games where he averaged over 20 ppg. He showed ability to defend, pass, and get his own shots which is very useful in the playoffs. If you don't like him, that is fine but you don't have to lie about his play and be dishonest about it. There is a reason your GM is in love with him and has boasted about him on national TV.

Not sure what Randle has to do with any of this but taking credit for developing his game is another delusional point:dead:. Randle was the best player on Lakers last year, him continuing to improve was a given. He did become a much worse defender with the Pelicans than he was ever with the Lakers and that is why the Pelicans had one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA with 2 great defensive players, think about that.:bryan:



Bragging about players improving under your system and disregarding the fact that they are young and are expected to improve is seriously a dumbass take. Yes..Ingram, Ball, Kuz will all improve if they get traded..because they are young and should. It's called progress.


I am talking about Ingram being a good player and you are bragging about your organization and bringing up random things that have zero to do with this conversation and thread. Also bragging about the Pelicans being better than the Lakers isn't a accomplishment. Your franchise is about to lose the best player in their history because they couldn't get him more than 2 playoffs appearances. Go celebrate that!

How does that work for the Wiz?

They give up Beal and the #9 for the 4th, Kuzma and first round picks from LA that probably would end up bottom ten of the first round.

They move up five spaces to 4(possibly to get Deandre Hunter, who has arguably the best skill set in the draft and who shot 44 % from deep) and they get Kyle Kuzma and Josh Hart (Kuzma is 21 years old and is a legitimate starting small forward and potential all star. Josh Hart is a young and talented sixth man. Add another first round pick and the Wizards have a wealth of assets for rebuilding their team.

Kuzma turns 24 next month.

So the Wiz trade a 25 year old all star that just put up 26/5/6 AND a top 10 pick for the 4th pick and an about to be 24 year old potential all star, a 6th man and a pick that will probably be 20-25 in a year or two?

The Wizards would literally be getting two potential all stars in Kuzma and Hunter, a young, talented sixth man and a future first round pick for an all star who wants to leave. If you can think of a better scenario, I'd kike to hear it.

I don't think NOLA would mind taking on the rest of Mahimni's albatross also in this hypothetical deal. So you get out from your 2nd worse albatross and well away from the tax (good luck finding a taker for Wall's :dead:), move up 5 spaces in a draft where the talent drop-off is exponentially steep the lower you go, get another first rounder next year, and have Kuzma and Hart on top of that to build around and complement Wall when he finally returns. It's that or draft Bruno Fernando at #9 this year, miss the playoffs again while still running up on the luxury tax due to Wall's albatross, get another shytty draft pick in 2020 cause Washington won't be bad enough for a good one if Beal plays, and then be forced to go on a very deep miracle playoff run that next year to try and convince Beal to stay before he bolts in free agency :manny:

Knicks might as well tank another season. TF we gonna do with just AD? Even AD + Kyrie ain't enough to do shyt and we'd be selling our entire future as I'm sure they'd want the #3 pick + Robinson + next year's pick and assets from other teams in a 3 way trade.

Just to put some emphasis on it..."Bu bu bu the draft lottery is random, it's not manipulated!"

Since 2011, damn near every draft lottery has been centered around LeBron James...

That's why Cleveland won the lottery 3 muthafukking times at the start of the decade.

They knew Bron was going back to the Cavs.Bron went Hulk Hogan NWO for ratings

with the Heat.The NBA had their most prestigious team since the '96 Bulls.Peep game.

As I previously said, the NBA knew Bron would go back to Cleveland.They gave the Cavs

all those #1 picks so the Cavs could have the assets to transform into a contender once Bron

got back.The Timberwolves, who never win the lottery, was rewarded the 1st pick in 2015 for

helping the Cavs/Bron(NBA's marketing cash cow)acquire Kevin Love.Wolves owner Glen Taylor

loved Kevin Love.The elusive "white superstar".You gotta remember,Back in 2014-2015, Kevin

Lover was arguably the best PF in the game.A lot of people would argue that.Especially if you

just look at the box score.A lot of his shine went away over the years.Being a 3rd wheel with the

Cavs & all.He was still good enough to help Bron reach his goal of bringing a ship to the city of

Cleveland.But yeah, Glen Taylor knew he'd get the #1 pick in 2015, so he went a long with the charade.

His compensations was Karl Towns.The Pelicans compensation will be Zion Williamson.The NBA even

got extra greedy this year(making it completely obvious to any keen observer) and moved the Lakers up 7

spots in the lottery.The 4th pick will sweeten the deal just in case they have to go the 3 team trade route.


So yeah 2011, 2013, and 2014=Cavs #1 overall picks.3 of the 4 yrs Bron was in Miami.They was preparing

for him to go back.The only reason the Cavs didn't win in 2012, the NBA had temporary ownership of the

Hornets/Pels.They were looking for a buyer, so they decided to hook themselves up with the #1 pick(AD)

to sweeten the deal.2015 Timberwolves get hooked up/compensated for their part in the K Love trade.

2016/2017 Jerry Colangelo is a made man.Very well respected.2018 the Suns got the hometown hook up

with Ayton playing high school/college ball there.Similar to the Bulls when they moved up to get D Rose.

On top of all that, 2016-2018 Bron seemed straight.He was still in the spotlight, biggest games, and potentially

winning a ship every year.Now that they see his situation in LA is more critical than they anticipated, they're back

to :cape: him once again.Don't worry Laker fans, y'all will be alright.They not letting Bron go out

without a bang.Gotta milk him for all they can.2011-2015 was the peak of this bullshyt...2019, they're back at it.

Y'all can call me crazy if you want to:hubie:....."bu bu bu they have representatives there to watch the lottery

process"...Yeah well a magic trick wouldn't be a magic trick without an audience...........................
