It's the friends era. Beal and Tatum are really close. Same area, same schools. Beal is a Celtic confirmed.

"We were really fortunate that Rich Paul was representing LeBron James, and the Lakers need(ing) to put another star with LeBron sort of dovetailed with the fact that Anthony had picked the time he had picked to want to move on," Griffin told Wojnarowski.

Wow, after reading that you’d think he was trying to help the Lakers.

Do we really want to trade Zoya for Beal though?... I think that is an overpay and i'd draw the line.

They are tho...having lebron made the lakers desperate enough to pair Lebron with someone and made them throw everything at the pelicans. Fear of striking out in free agency and having Lebron toil his last years away was the ultimate scare tactic

Winning plays, that's what zoya brings to the table. That stuff is hard to quantify.

Zoya creating the sign and trade that gets him shipped outta town. Just like when Keyshawn Johnson scouted Dwayne Jarrett who took his job.

I don’t know, I’d like to see what Zoya could become under the tutelage of Perkins or Posey if we could get one of them in to work with him. Or maybe KG or Russell.

I just want to say that posters including Smart as a throw in to a Beal trade make me sad. Marcus ain’t about that life.

We don't pay Zoya enough. Since we didn't sign any posters name TreyDBallast, I'm not sure we can match salary on an equivalent talent poster. Probably have to wait til next summer unless we want to send out other posters like CelticsfanSinceBirth or MagicBagley18, who we don't want to lose unless we're getting a legit superstar poster back. If we extend Zoya this summer we trigger the poison pill, but if we don't move him this year, it's RFA next summer and we gotta be prepared to max him or lose him. So, you try to find another young gun on another board at a position of need. But, every subform overvalues their own posters. It gets hard to make a trade work.

I heard the Pels asked for Zoya and that was the deal breaker for Ainge to walk away from Davis.

If we lose Zoya we need to tank immediately and try to get Constable or someone of that quality. Maybe crowderKeg but that guy suuuucks.

Can hayward play the 2? I think we can start gordon at the 2, and tatum at the 3 on certain matchups. Especially against the sixers and bucks. Move jaylen on the 2nd unit. Maybe start Theis or Poirier next to Kanter. If were playing against AD and Cousins, maybe we can start RW and Kanter together. If we use Tatum at the 4, Horford and Giannis would just pound him inside and would require a double, leaving their shooters open. Of course we would be versatile on offense with Tatum at the 4, but my problem is with our defense. RW is still a long way to be reliable at the C spot.

I read it totally differently. I think Griffin was saying they were fortunate that the Lakers were desperate to find a star to partner with LeBron and that AD and LeBron share an agent. That enabled New Orleans to get a huge haul for AD after he demanded to be traded.
