What up Jake what's up matkovic
Trade Zion for Dyson
Management did a poor job with depth. Brandon Boston is good though. I assume Karlo is hurt – I know he`s way better than JRE.
Can’t expect Ingram to completely eliminate the mid range. He’s taking more 3’s and hustling on D. Really can’t say anything negative about him.
I was impressed with the effort. I also think this team can make the playoffs and win about 46 games. If we can get the bulk of our players backed before the first week of December, we can start winning. I feel a trade for Robert Williams would be good.
The team needs to be centered around Bi, CJ, Murphy, Hawkins and Murray scoring.
BI asked to be hero for the 4th time in 6 years

PAY B.I. He’s the face of the franchise 🦾🦾
#SittyEdition
This BI hate is ridiculous
The only formula is to get the injured players back. Until then more losing than winning.
As long as they have Willie green they will never get in the win column
This dude wrong again. Lakers game was no moral victory when your coach keeps giving these games away
Joker out for the birth of a child, he did the right thing staying out. Not mad at Malone prioritizing his daughter, either, no one bought a ticket to see him.
Anyway, been hating on Willie for… years? But gotta give it to him, he had the birds READY these past 2 games. It was great to see the compete this weekend, esp on the boards as you pointed out. If nothing else, we’re getting see who sticks w us long term on the bench (Boston obviously, but Jamison has given great minutes, Nowell shows flashes, Cain can play some D…).
Looking at the schedule tho, and the fact that Z isn’t back til Dec/January… low key I’d prefer 30-35 wins and the lottery at this point. I went through today and counted up wins— winning 30 more games will be a real feat and require some bad injury luck from opponents (January gets easy, but then look at Feb— oof). Success for us is reaching the WCF. If we can’t to do that, reach high in the lottery.
i am a proponent of paying BI and trading Zion!!!!
BI is definitely the guy
But we keep failing in crunch time or losing big leads, health or not, a coaching change is required. 🏀🇬🇧
BI is New Orleans best player, forget hoping Zion Williamson will be healthy for a whole season. Give BI a new contract. Trading JV and Nance was a mistake.
