    All b******* aside, the Pelicans are insane asking for what they asked for. Happy LA told them hell na.

    brah...welcome and all, but you gotta read the room before going in on folks...

    sirron's an OG, and at least a part of his lebron hate is for show. a small part, but a part.

    The news about the Pelicans choosing to sit out Davis is interesting. Makes me think they might be willing to do a trade after some internal reflection.

    At this point most of the league agrees we have made a great offer. It's up to the Pelicans to decide if they want to risk waiting for Tatum or take what's right in front of them.

    of course everyone will say boston's offer is better because of all their 1st round picks but let's be real

    only the grizzlies pick will be high. the rest of those picks are mid to late 1st round

    I see you’re new here.

    :Laugh:

    I own the domain IhateLebron.com and have been hating on him a LONG TIME. I will never own his jersey. If given one I’d toss it in the trash or give it away.

    I only took the website down to try to be nice, but I can’t stand him. As for the youngins, I don’t compare them to others, but disappointed with their development alongside a ball dominant player like Lebron.

    I think he’s a poor fit here, and we’d be better off trading him for Kawhi or AD IMHO.

    grizz pick is what, top-8 protected this year. so it's probably 9-12 or deferred another year. i suppose that next one could be a good one, but it's top-6 protected next year. not unprotected until 2021. but yes, that's the jewel. but last year, the jewel was the sac pick. things can change in a hurry. and in the era of rampant tanking, simply not trying to lose usually gets you out of the top 5.

    anyway, i don't see how their picks are that great. it's about tatum--who's not coming to them. and really, it's about teams colluding against a(nother) laker dynasty.

    still can't figure out why they'd choose another C Bags dynasty instead...that's the part i can't wrap my head around.

    I think part of the mindset is they believe the Lakers offer will be there this summer, and perhaps they can put the Lakers and C Bags in some sort of a bidding war, even though Magic has explicit stated he has no interest in doing that.

    They think they have the crown jewel (which they kind of do), and believe it should go to the highest bidder. They don't want to rush the process (especially to help the Lakers) and don't mind dragging it out to see what offers they get. I don't necessarily agree with this strategy, but it's probably what the ownership is thinking.

    Appreciate it bro and thank you for the welcome/info.

    Sirron, I rescind my venom. I didn’t realize you were an OG. I gotta earn my stripes here.

    It’s all hate. Pure. Clean. Hate. And it’s all justified.

    Maybe I exaggerate on occasion, but for the most part, it’s real. He’s an a**. A great player. Difficult to play with, and an a**.

    My question remains, do the Pelicans not realize they don’t get ANY 2019 picks from Boston if they deal with them? The C Bags and Pelicans can’t deal with eachother until July 1st, that’s post-draft, so these picks will then be players. Are we to assume the Pelicans and C Bags will deal in secret on draft day and the C Bags will pick who the Pelicans want, and then Ainge will cross his heat hope to die pinkie swear to trade them Tatum in July too? Please. Boston doesn’t have a better offer than us, it’s a media driven narrative that’s gone off the friggin rails.

    Somebody pointed it out earlier, which is more apt IMO, that they think he's the next Jesus.
