    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

    My dear sweet lord, if it’s really NOLA, Charlotte should jump all over this.

    No 2 for Ingram + picks, or even shoot for the stars with with No 2 + Bridges for Ingram + Zion.

    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.

      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

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