    well at least crappy games allows for some gif creating time. Maybe we'll get a new batch ready.

    This may be the worst offensive team I’ve seen in my life. If and when Lebron or AD inevitably miss some time, we will be losing by 30+ points.

    This season has disaster written all over it. In that case, why not go all the way there & get Wembanyama to New Orleans. I actually like them as a team. Go Pelicans!

    and nothing will change unless pelinka changes his mind and agrees to trade multiple 1st rounders to get russ out, or the jazz/spurs/pacers lower their asking price

    i don't see either happening. they're just going to keep losing and losing

    somehow most of the forum lol'd at me when I said this team didn't look better than last year's especially when we had lost our only other consistent scorer outside Lebron + Ad, in Malik Monk.

    the previous year, got bashed for suggesting we wouldn't be able to reproduce the contribution of players like KCP, Kuz, Green with vet mins.

    I'm by no means a basketball savant, but it seems some people clearly don't have a basic grasp of the modern game of basketball.

    pels just beat the mavs without zion and BI

    utah would be the opponent they have the best chance of beating, but with the way they're playing i don't see it happening. who knows when this team will win a game

    I am here for the s***storm when we are 0 - 12. I hope Bron gets most of it, because it's his d****** fault.

    also it's not what anyone wants to hear, but we might have to start entertaining the thought that this team is not fixable with any possible trade, and blowing it up before the trade deadline, trade AD + Bron to contenders for picks and reset.

    it's extremely likely we're facing another 2-3 years of mediocrity until we inevitably have to do it anyway.

    No offense… but I’ll stand by that.

    Last year’s teams would have also been 0-4 but probably all 20+ point losses where the games were obviously decided within the first half.

    Maybe, MAYBE Denver at home, if we catch them sleeping. Maybe Utah, other than that I
    see none.


    Personally I’d call up Charlotte and beg them to take Russ, Nunn, maybe Gabriel, both firsts, multiple 2nds, for Rozier, Hayward, Oubre/Plumlee. It’s the only trade I see having a chance at saving us. If we do nothing at all, which is definitely an option, the Pelicans will be getting a sweet lottery pick from us.
