**OFFICIAL 2019 NBA OFFSEASON THREAD**

[cedric ceballos]

Trading the number 1 pick (Zion) for Anthony Davis if the Knicks get it is absurd.

He’s a free agent next summer. New Orleans has no leverage whatsoever. The Knicks have been trash for years. Getting some guys this summer and being in a better position next year is more practical. Blew my mind when the Lakers were offering half their team plus picks for a guy who has made it clear he doesn’t want to be in New Orleans.

I’ve prayed to all gods old and new Atlanta gets the number one pick. This is what that rebuild was for we need something man smdh. Took the chance to rebuild to not just be stuck in the “decent at best” pergatory we where in and now we could have something that in some years of development of the young talent could make some real noise. I want this number one pick bad.

Not just the talent but the star power. Trae is already a entertaining player then add Zion who's a highlight reel it would spark something ATL ain't had since Nique.

what if zion end up in philly?

embiid simmons and zion big three

3 cats that can't shoot and mess up the floor spacing

I doubt the Knicks commit to trade the first pick for Anthony Davis unless you have him signing an extension.

I'm not a fan of trading the first pick for AD, though.

But lets see what happens tonight.

****** just be TALKIN

I loathe this time of the year

 

[gaiiige]

Man, I could not imagine being in a Knicks fan shoes today. **** is nerve wrecking

i don't know if i'm gonna watch it live

i might have a stroke lol

And still won't have a fanbase

 

[dacomeup]

You're 100% right. So I hope we get the 2nd or 3rd pick.

Wut. You'd rather RJ Barrett than Anthony Davis?

 

[Maximus Meridius]

And still won't have a fanbase

They already have a couple bandwagon jumpers since Trae got there. It's a lot of fans now that pick their team at 25 years old. Look at the Warriors new fan base.

 

[Figured it out]

Wut. You'd rather RJ Barrett than Anthony Davis?

It’s a big gamble .

Possible future all star locked in > 1 year Ad lease

 

[don ramon]

Needs to be on a real franchise like the Cavs

cavs just got a head coach that has one foot in the grave

I'd be disappointed if we drafted Zion only to trade him. Mainly think Pelicans still take an offer around the #2 pick.

After that 1 pick is gone they can find better value elsewhere than NY if they dont get 1

Who does Terry Rozier think he's going to start for next season?

I can MAYBE see Phoenix if they aren't able to draft Morant.

Miami, Phoenix, Lakers (when they strike out on everyone), New Orleans (if Payton walks)

Eh Lakers will run it back with Zo if anything if they strike out

What if they think a player like Ja or RJ will be better than the Ingrams/Tatums of the world.

Idk if you watched the interview but it’s not eem about starting. Kyrie was basically an ******* and wouldn’t run what they were supposed to run. It really seemed like a ****** lockerroom.

The Magic currently start DJ Augustin at point guard.

I've been following his comments all year long...and what I'm saying isn't solely based on what he said today. He very CLEARLY has stated he wants to be a starting point guard and be paid like one.

 

[getback]

Have to respect the man's honesty in a league full of political correctness as it relates to interaction with the media.

Miami is rocking with Winslow

Boston and Lakers can add more assets than NY in a deal. It won't be a straight up trade.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I'm listening to the full segment right now, nobody knows how to setup f'ery like SAS. He a funny *** _.

So Brad was running a lot of plays for his mans Gordon fresh off injury and playing like garbage. Interesting.

When did he clearly state he wanted to be a starter and paid like one?

Nevermind.
I found a podcast where he says he wants to be a starter in the league. Finna listen
