would a Roizer and Lonzo Trade make sense?
for the hornets it be pairing the Ball brothers together.
for the pelicans I guess it would be adding a scorer in Roizer.

I mean if Lonzo chooses to come to Charlotte, sure. Its really up to him where he goes. Feels like the Knicks are going to overpay though.

its been Lavar's dream for all his sons to play together now I don't how how they feel about it but that could come into play we already have one of Lamelo's brothers here.

Raptors not taking Suggs could indicate they are getting Lonzo for a Lowry SnT.

we could do a sign and trade for Lonzo by giving them Rozier who is better than Lowry imo.

If I’m Charlotte I want to stead Lavar’s attention not centralize it, and he also seems to be more defensive of Lonzo

Not sure (m)any raptor fans will agree with that.

I think Rozier would be better for them, assuming they want to win.
They’ve got a good mix of vets and youth to make a playoff push next season

No IMO def Lowry, they are looking for a leader to run the team for a couple of years. Till Zion gets paid. Rozier is a complimentary piece not a leader. Plus being only signed for one year in this case is a detriment.

This would be best case scenario for this raptors fan. I truly believe he’s going to take off in his mid 20s just like Kyle did a decade earlier

I really really hope not. Zero interest in turning the team into a new season of Ball in the Family

Re: would a Roizer and Lonzo Trade make sense?
i don't get why everyone's obsessed with this pairing. Yeah Lonzo is a competent defender but I'd much rather have Rozier's scoring and 3-point shooting on a 1 year deal than Lonzo on a super bloated 4 year deal. And it doesn't open up a spot in the rotation for Monk, which would be the only reason to trade Rozier anyway.
investigate Adam Silver

New Orleans doesn't need more offense. They need more defense to offset the pedestrian defense of Zion & Ingram.

Re: would a Roizer and Lonzo Trade make sense?
I wouldn't be upset if we turned Lonzo into Rozier. I'd almost say I prefer that to Lowry. I don't want a 36 year old Lowry on a 3 year deal, that's potential franchise suicide.

Doncic will be goat. Lauri will be his sidekick.

The Hornets should go hard after Lonzo and for some reason his value might be low enough that it's actually possible to get him.

Re: would a Roizer and Lonzo Trade make sense?
Unless Lonzo gets a lot more money than Rozier, I'd much rather retain Lonzo.
