    he's in yr 2 man, I'm hardly a Zo fan but this guy does things that help team win. All I'm saying is try to put Bi in place of Zo in the trade, not necessarily no Zo period.

    my only question is why davis signed an extension in the first place? yea i get it, he got paid, but i feel like everyone but him could see it was a foregone conclusion he wasnt gonna win w the pelicans. dude should have just let himself become a FA from the get go instead of this route (easy for me to say ha)

    We'd just have to hope that AD can play better in the playoffs than . . . [checks notes] . . . Kevin love.

    I dunno guys.

    They would want Zo but I agree with you... try to get rid of BI. Zo does things to help the team win but I think much of his skillset can be replaced. If we are truly wanting to win during LeBron's window then you trade Zo and don't look back.

    BI should show up early and stay way late every practice till he stops doing 1 for 2 on almost every dam trip to the ft line.

    Word is he overruled the scouts and picked Wagner. LakersFilmRoom and the other blogs have talked about it on their podcasts.

    I don't value keeping Zo as much as some of you. Talented guy, but I think LeBron is at his best when he take on the primary PG job. I'd rather we kept someone who can hit threes, and all of our young guys are better in that department.

    Meh; I like Wagner; and I think they made up for it with the pick with Svi, IMO. He was also high on Kuzma and a big reason why they went with him.

    Didn't like the Zo pick - other than than, he's been good. IMO.

    He needs to make this deal happen, though.

    Are we really debating whether we should keep Zo or not in a potential AD trade?

    Trade the god damn farm...we had a strong sample size of games without LeBron showing just how good this young core is...yes, they showed "flashes"...but ultimately, guys like Jamal Murray, Fox and Tatum are categorically better than guys like Ingram and Zo...we messed up and if we have a chance to right our wrongs by getting a generational talent like AD? You do it without even thinking.
