I can see this is still Lebrons league. At least the NBA looks after their money maker.

There is a pelican fan!!!!


Every team sells out for the playoffs.... but there are definitely NBA teams with less support than NOP. The Nets had the worst attendance record this season and they were a playoff team in the largest NBA market... now that's crazy! (It doesn't help that their ticket prices are ridiculous!)


As a Brooklyn native, but a life-long Knicks fan, NY still belongs to the Knicks no matter how awful they are. You simply cannot compete with MSG and the star power they draw in attendance- and this is coming from someone who can walk to the Barclays. The Nets have a beautiful facility and their presence has revitalized the neighborhood, but even with all the bells and whistles its not Manhattan and MSG.

I'm happy for NOLA and their fans. Hopefully Zion is everything everyone wants him to be and they can transition into a new era under him. I would most definitely listen to all offers in addition to LAL and make sure I package Solomon Hill in any deal with AD.

The Mavs have to be shaking their heads. They were in a 3-way tie in the lottery with the Pelicans and the Grizzlies.

The Pelicans won the 1st tiebreaker, were seeded 7th, and jumped to 1st.

The Grizzlies won the 2nd tiebreaker, were seeded 8th, and jumped to 2nd.

The Mavs were seeded 9th after losing both tiebreakers, and fell to 10th after the Lakers leaped them, As such, their top-5 protected pick will be going to the Hawks.

And he was bummed out
