DestroidMengars 22 Report post Posted June 19, 2023 Not sure if this is anything, but Paolo follows Ausar and Amen on Instagam, while Ausar follows Paolo, Gary Harris, and Jalen Suggs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Lergier 99 Report post Posted June 19, 2023 4 hours ago, TreyMachine said: I'm still of the opinion Charlotte trades Scoot + other assets for Zion. Charlotte needs a big to run with LaMelo. It doesn't have to be us...agree, but the Hornets have a good chance to add a few assets. We'll see what happens. Nonetheless....picks 6 and 11 are not too shabby on this draft.

orlandoholic 137 Report post Posted June 19, 2023 9 hours ago, Albert Lergier said: I don't believe that the Hornets are going to pass on drafting Scoot and trading him for "a bunch" - which would be more than just drafting Miller. If they have a FO that is smart, (IMHO), they should do what the Magic did back in 1993, draft Webber and trade him for Penny and 3 1st's. In this case, for example, Scoot to the Magic for 6, 11 and Markelle. for Scoot, i’d go 6 and 11 and add 2024 protected Top3 pick… that should and could do it. The Hornets would welcome 3 new young players and as the Hornets Ausar and Cam would be a better fit as well. they could possibly add a shooter at 11 as well.. imo The Hornets could be tempted to do this trade. No players involved too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTMagicUK 1,491 Report post Posted June 19, 2023 Bill Simmons believes Zion won't be in New Orleans after Thursday. Suggests to me he's getting traded for #2 or #3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Suggests to me he's getting traded for #2 or #3. yeah probably.. But imo. We’ve got the better offer for Charlotte if they are trying to build a sustainable team. it’s basically Zion or 6 and 11 and possibly next years first. if i’m Charlotte i prefer the Orlando package. I mean Melo got the ball a lot. But they also have that super athletic SF/PF in Bridges. With the 3 picks they can really add around that core Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whether or not they can get him healthy Zion is a name to sell tickets and stuff to casual fans and attract attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m going in a completely different direction. Charlotte picks Scoot, and trades Lamelo to Phoenix for Ayton. Possible a few other pieces to make the numbers work.

I mean i like Zion and think he’s worth a trade. I just wouldn’t trade a top 3 pick in this years draft for him. Scoot is also a freak of nature and will attract fans.. But yeah i get it. Zion is a huge name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Possible a few other pieces to make the numbers work. Lamelo would annoy the hell out of Durant, Booker, AND Beal. Lamelo is the epitome of immaturity on and off the court. He would be helped by being around veterans as he has a lot of talent and could use some mature guidance, but you don't bring a risk like that into your locker room when you're trying to win a championship.
