Lol at comparing UNC to Eastern Washington!

The delusion is strong :lol:


I said high school. Before UNC.

Or look at Giannis. 99% of us have never heard of the league he was in before the NBA, but he turned out ok.

Memphis and Coward ftw!

I don’t see how the Pels make it tbh


I expect them to be in the top 5-7 again next year as well. 2026 is going to be a much better draft talent wise. This is the second terrible deal they've made in a row with Atlanta, beginning with Dyson Daniels. Two different front offices, same results.

It's interesting that Charlotte is collecting future picks. They got picks for taking on Josh Green and Grant Wiliams. Now they got two picks for Mark Williams. With the late pick they can draft a backup for Nurkic.

The Pelicans giving up their unprotected first next year is a choice.

What he's done this last week is fireable.

Unprotected 1st for a mid round pick is insane, just playing Russian roulette
