I'm biased as a Raptors fan, but I'd love to see Zion re-unite with RJ Barrett. Could spark his passion for the game again. Plus the training staff here is top notch, we handled Kawhi's tricky health issues well to maximize his productivity! It would be a great fit!
GS: Zion+Jarace Walker
Pels: Kuminga+2025 gs frp+ +2027 gs frp+Ben Mathurin
Pacers: Wiggins+2026 frp swap best gs
I don’t mind seeing Zion in charlotte. He’s a Duke legend, being back in his hometown, on a team with no expectations. Also Zion and Melo is fun to watch, as well as Brandon Miller
Zions a disappointment but so is David Griffin so I'm not expecting anything good to happen..
This makes me sad! I'm realistic abt how things have gone, but I really don't want to see Zion traded. I was a partial Pels fan and spent most of my energy on the saints. When Zion was selected, I really jumped on board. We don't get stars that make us the talk of the league so this was such a big shift. I really hope he comes back and does so well we rethink getting rid of him. I also know if he plays well that improves his trade value. This just makes me sad!
Zion is still very young. The last thing we want is for him to finally stay healthy somewhere else. I think you ride it out
There's only 1 franchise that would trade Zion and one fanbase that would want to trade him. He just happens to be with that franchise.
If this team was your starting point, one would think that five years later you would be better than you are now?
G: Darius Garland (the "should-have-been pick")
G: Jrue Holiday (The "heart and soul" of any team)
C: Julius Randall (the "nothing-in-return" brain fart of the organization)
F: Brandon Ingram (a consistent scorer who can fill up a box score)
F: Zion Williamson (He once had tremendous trade value even if he's only a myth)
Bench: Josh Hart; Lonzo Ball (could have flipped him for Lauri Markkanen); and Kenrich Williams
Coach: Chris Finch
…and a war chest of draft picks from the Anthony Davis deal (that has been severely mismanaged)
SPECIAL NOTE: This potential 2019-20 starting lineup have all been All Stars over the past five years
Now who wants to defend David Griffin?
I'll admit, however, every inter-team transaction he's made since he's been here has made teams better. Unfortunately, none of those teams went by the name, "Pelicans"

Mr. ErryDat'rr 👈🏾 Thanks Jake. I'm on board wit team trade all 3 of em!!
I would like to see Zion to Charlotte for Mann and Richards, BI to the Pacers hopefully for Mathurin and Toppin but I’m not against Turner. Lastly, McCollum to Orl for Carter and Issac. I know there will be more moving parts but those would be the main pieces I’d trade for with those partners. Send them ALL to the East!
Zion will not be traded. Fake media ratings stories.
Once again. Zion gets all the blame, but it’s Ingram’s team. What a joke?
Good, and good riddance
A superstar that sits on the bench most of his career. I don't think he will ever be able to play a full season.
Hi Jake . keep Zion
Money was Zion‘s downfall.
Ship Zion out in some plane`s nose gear. Then give seated tickets to BI and CJ.
Your videos will have less than 10 views once your boy is gone. Good luck
David Griffin should not be allowed to make another trade. Griffin should be fired. This G.M. is too proud to admit his mistakes, and allowing him to make any deals will sink this team deeper into poverty.
i would trade zion for kumiga in a heartbeat
Every dayer comment
I could maybe see the nets trying for Zion as a buy low because of his contact and how much he wanted to be in NY
