this franchise really did Ewing wrong and having him rep us in the lottery made sure we got the perfect player "for us" and it wasn't
Zion- it was RJ Barrett...I said this after the KP trade and I'm going to keep pushing it- this will be a good year for us and whatever happens
for us will be whats best for us...

RJ Barrett should represent us in the lottery next year. Have the feeling that he’s the one that would bag us the #1 pick.

The Mavericks tried the same thing with Doncic and it was a mess with DSJ. He can’t play off ball. Off ball is more than athleticism, it’s IQ and willingness to know when to cut to the rim or find open pockets.


Or being able to hit open shots


THIS!!


So the best person on the team right now to be on the floor at the other guard position with him is Dotson?

Honestly if this is the case, and Frank and Trier are the bench unit... DSJ is useless

Im surprised nobody is talking about this

It was so obvious that it was fixed this year. Im very happy with 3 tho because I still wouldve taken RJ at 2.

no way the ownership group of the league said, "give zion williamson to the new orleans pelicans." i don't even understand how that benefits the league as a whole.

who knows who's involved or what the process is but come on shotta...the lakers, Griz and Pelicans had win in the 30's- you don't find it strange that they all fell top 4? Trust I dont want it to be this way- but come on...It's like a poster on the draft board said "you think a multi billion dollar corporation is going to leave the (forgot the word exactly) fate of there organization to chance"

my yute :lol:

i'm just saying if there's a conspiracy in place, how hard would it be to get the other 29 teams to agree on who should win a rigged lottery? i am far more inclined to believe that these are indeed the results of a change process.

if you're going to step outside of what's being presented as fact, and verified by a major international company like ernst and young, i need more than that. a lot more.

EY really putting its whole reputation on the line to make sure the pelicans get zion? fi true?

There does seem to be some juju connection between RJ and Patrick

Wonder if that means it will be Coach Ewing running the Knicks someday
