Pelicans front office was looking shaky in the beginning of the Zion era but adding CJM, Jonas, and the 2 draft picks in Jones and Murphy w/ Ingram got them trending up. Zion and his team gotta cut the shyt and get it together, he's got a decent core to play with.

like I said..Trae seems to be the only player who folks use defense against when trying to discredit him. Curry, Luka, Kyrie, Dame, Harden and a host of others are shyt on defense but that doesn’t get brought up like it does for Trae.

Bogdonlvich, Gallinari, Huerter are worse defenders than Trae. Trae’s lack of defense isn’t the reason the Hawks had a disappointing season.




Bro is a top 3 offensive player in the league. I would have never thought the Hawks would have a player like this :mjcry:


You should know better how casual NBA narratives work.....Nikkas dont like Trae like they do Curry/Kyrie....LeBron doesnt play defense and finished 11th and hes about to be All NBA....the NBA media & voters are worse than casual fanboys...

the whole team played like shyt. ain't his fault he had to watch rozier flex tunnel vision like a style then play center because the coach was in headlights again :manny: anybody watching that game knows he needed the ball

"you want max money you gotta perform" you really don't tho :dead: and i been hating on miles since he got drafted here

Dudes acting like players at or above Bridges in skill are going to sign for these teams for less, especially if they aren't really contending.

Like fr, unless a great player gets traded or a draft pick pans out, these teams ain't getting talent like that. Memphis is literally built from draft picks and young players they got apart of trades. They're near bottom in terms of players salaries, and are gonna have to start throwing money at their core or that shyt goes up.

nikkas gonna be 20-30m under the cap with nothing to show for it. No trades in the works, your team can't attract star free agents, etc.

Hypothetically if all of these guys were free agents, who going out of their way to sign to Charlotte? :dead:

Who is forcing a trade to Charlotte? :dead:



Jimmy Butler is gonna be making 52 million off my Heat at 36 years old :dead:

Miles Bridges wants $173 million but couldn’t even lead his team last night and got smacked…

These are the kinda things I’m talkin about…

You want max money you gotta perform

This nikka had 12 points last night:mjlol:
And Michael Jordan is cheap as fukk. He’ll remember this game and let Bridges walk. :francis:
