If Pelicans make trade to Lakers:

Randle
Kuzma
Ingram
Holiday
Ball
Zubac
Mirotic
2 1st

not a bad young team

Gotta think they trade Holiday though. Can't see him wanting to stick around. So that'd leave them with the 2017-18 Lakers + Mirotic and a few late 1sts.
2021 Houston Rockets
PG: Kyrie Irving/Patty Mills/Jalen Brunson
SG: OG Anunoby/Norman Powell/Matisse Thybulle
SF: Gordon Hayward/Demar Derozan
PF: Giannis Antetokounmpo/Robert Covington
C: Kristaps Porzingis/Bobby Portis/James Wiseman

One of the greatest players of our generation who is only 25, excellent two way player, is not getting traded for nothing less than one of those two as a starting point. Let's stop being delusional. Pelicans do not want Hayward, or Horford. Those two if included in a trade are getting sent elsewhere... Please STOP BEING DELUSIONAL AND GET REAL AND SMELL THE COFFEE!

Welcome to my Ted Talk.

What??

How many finals has he reached... or even playoff trips

Please lets not jump the gun

He's going to be in the Hall of Fame.  You can bank on that.  Now the real question is how high he will get on the echelon but his base right now is HOFer.

The standards of the hall of fame have not dropped so low that davis is a lock for them at this point in time.

Get real here.

Great player? Yup.

Currently a hof level player? Nope.

He has a 57.8% chance, and he's only 25... I would safely say that is definitely a possibility.
5x Allstar
3x All Defensive
3x All Team NBA
3x BLK Champion

Does not scream HoF bound to you? Sure, okay buddy... Then again I'm not surprised you guys are trying to argue over this debate.  ::)

57.8 % right now is not sure fire.

You stated that he was a guarantee, you overatated. Accept it amd move on.

Very real.  I think that should be apparent to almost anyone at this point.

Apparently, not.

Its a definate possibility, but not a guaranteed entrance at this point in time.

I think Ingram is the type of player who needs to be on a 20 win team where he can have everything run through him. To make mistakes (lots of them) and learn from them. Not impressed at all by his ability (inability) to develop while in a smaller role / in a successful team.

I thought Ingram learned more in those couple of weeks where he was basically the PG than he did in the rest of his 2 and a half years in LA.

Which makes me think that Ingram is just one of those guys who will only learn through making mistakes and because of that he has to be in a situation where he can make all of those mistakes.

So if I am a team that is considering taking Ingram, I'd only put a high value on him if I can give him that type of opportunity. Otherwise, I am not rating him highly. His development (lack there of) in LA is too worrying.

Lol....Deps finally returned Magic's call. It's the headline.

Buried in the top of the article in a throw away manner....Demps has already been talking to other GMs about Davis before returning Magic's call.

I find that to be an important point.

I think one of the key points was that team owner Gayle Benson sees herself as a flag carrier for small market franchises. If she’s going to take a stand against LA and Lebron, that’s fantastic.

Dallas is sending New York a 2021 unprotected first-round pick and a 2023 protected first-round pick (1-10) in the deal.

I don't think new Yorks assets are as good

Dallas will be good in 2021

Is Nick Wright at Fox Sports reliable?  Tweeted something about the NBA having another surprise to announce tonight.   Can't paste the link with my phone for some reason.

Any unprotected pick is valuable. For all we know, KP will continue to battle injuries or leave in free agency.

But I agree, we can put together a better package if we want to.

I think it’s just gross all anyone wants to talk about is Kyrie going to NY or LA when the C’s are one of the best run organizations in sports like it doesn’t matter.
