Are they shopping Zion or Ingram for that pick?

If they put Ingram up I'm done with this city. I think I'm okay with Zion going.

He's dominated in the games he's played, but those games are few and far between.

Trading Ingram and going all in on a dude who barely plays is… brave. Wonder what the market for Zion looks like

Does Portland want to take on Zion or Ingram as a #2 to Lillard instead of their #3 pick?

I can't see Charlotte making that trade, unless they're idiots and selling out to dig deeper into damaged goods with a Ball/Zion pairing that'd light the league on fire for all of seven games a season while eating up 2/3 of their cap space.

Off topic but is there a Pels instance anywhere on here? I need my boys to FLOCK UP.

not that I have seen, but you should make one and post the link here for the sidebar.

I might. I know nothing about running these things but we'll see.

[–] acosmichippo 2 points 2 years ago

me neither, but in the beginning it shouldn’t be too bad. can always hand off moderation to someone else if it gets to be too much.

I should've just put a link to her Twitter in the sidebar.

Western Conference playoff contender

Oof, that's a painful descriptor. And this kind of a pivot at the absolute nadir of Zion's value is an interesting choice. I could definitely see Portland jumping at the chance if they offer either Zion or Ingram, but I don't really understand where that would leave the Pels going forward

They must be ready to bundle picks and Ingram
