Trade Zion to Miami π₯π₯π₯
A season with no injuries would be nice, as it never happens, plus we need to resign Murphy! ππ¬π§
Ingram looking baked during a π game is always funny.
I donβt think Zion has played a single playoff game in his career. RJ Barrett has more at this point and no one wouldβve guessed that during the draft in 2019. This team is in the luxury tax and they are a play-in team. Thatβs not good.
New Orleans went from the "hottest" team leading up the playoffs to being bounced in the first round xD
With the wealth of draft assets they have, they should definitely look to explore to try upgrade CJ and BI otherwise theyre never gonna be a contender
Can we get bobby a better camera? Fan of the analysis
Zion's health continues to be a problem for them. CJ should come off the bench at this point. Being a facilitator is not him. Ingram was bad this series, but from what I understand, he wasn't 100%. Maybe they could move Valanciunas? They have a very strong roster, and they can be great. They just need to move some parts and stay healthy, but that's still a problem.
Pelicans should make a move on Trae Young this off-season, CJ McCollum is not a point guard & Brandon Ingram isnβt a good fit with them, Jones & Murphy should be the starters they need to trade Cj & B.I this summer
BI is good but not 50 mil good π
I enjoy Bobby Marks takes, but man, every single video he puts out has the trashiest audio. It sounds like a little kid making their first YouTube video.
Zion to tge Knicks
I know this is a staple of Bobby Marks videos, but ESPN can you please chip in and get him a better mic or whatever it is that keeps his volume so low? Obviously I can turn the volume up, but then the outro NBA on ESPN song swoops in and kills my ears at a 100 dB.
Zion W. always hurt Willie Green might be fired
i swear every tesm that loses yall eant to blow them up. instead of letting teams gel. the media pushes for all these trades then blame the players .
I love the level of detail in these videos but I need something on the screen. Some salary visuals, trade machine screenshot, anything.
NOLA can trade Nance or Jonas V + Brandon I. for Nick Claxton and Cam Thomas.
Nets don't own their picks and could look to win now with an offense upgrade in BI. Cam provides Nola with an supplemental offensive injection off the bench that could be shielded defensly by Pelicans defense.
Hate to say it, but I think BI gets traded.
Bring Spida to NOLA. Labron is interesting also. Draft Mark Sears and Kyle Filipowski.
Pelicans already wasted 1st round Picks on :
Devonte Graham
Nickeil A. W.
Dyson Daniels
Kira Lewis
Jaxson Hayes
they have room to waste 1 more for good cause…
Draft Bronny James & Have Lebron come to New Orleans with CJ & Zion ..
Trade B.I. with Dyson, Larry or Jonas to get a good center (Joel Embiid) shooters, picks & more .. Maybe go after Mo Jonathan Issac. & Mo Wagner or Trae Young.
We lit .. All eyes in Pelicans all season
Can I get a spurs offseason video
That thumbnail though. Brandon needs to put down the bong.
Pelicans have the best bench in NBA but a terrible starting 5. Zion ceiling still reachable. Resign Jonas, trade BI and McCollum.
