on WFNZ they were tossing around a deal with Kemba going to LA in exchange for Lonzo Ball.  The deal would not work straight up but personally I would be willing to take on the headache of daddy Lavar if they were to add Kuzma to the deal to make the salaries work or maybe even Hart. Lonzo is the bigger guard that would pair with Monk I do believe and there is the Laker connection with Kupchak. Anyways this would all hinge on Paul George and Lebron also heading to LA , but what say the rest of you would you be interested in a deal for Lonzo. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/23878485/kevin-pelton-weekly-mailbag-how-lakers-add-kemba-walker-superteam

To be honest the Hornets picking up Lonzo, Brandon Ingram, and maybe picks wouldn’t be a bad trade at all. This fanbase doesn’t understand we don’t have the money to signed Kemba to huge contract and even if we do we are still not winning anything. It’s time to rebuild let’s be honest. I’m tried of not making the playoffs and signing Kemba long term pretty much keeps us out of contending because we want be able to afford to add pieces around him.

I can't envision Jordan wanting any part of Lavar after all the poo he talked about being better than him.

Jordan is going to bring the ball family here and then challenge him to a one on one before every practice.  :tongue:

There is no way we land Lonzo and Ingram (much less plus picks) for anything on our roster.  Kemba alone isn't enough, and the only other assets we have are Bridges and future picks, at which point we aren't really helping ourselves.

I’m not saying it’s likely we get all that but to get something before he leaves it’s better than nothing imo. But the Hornets are not going to give him up for free and Lonzo will definitely have to be included in the trade.

      Okay, now face the facta guyd

      No, it will be a raw 6'7" 17-year-old European who just played basketball for the first time in March and who the idiot GM "had first on our board." He'll play the whole G-League season, get in 42 games for the Hornets and average 1.1 ppg on 35% shooting. Been there, seen that.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      We missed on Burns at his peak value. That’s the problem with trading for picks 2-3 years away (which people were convinced the Rams would suck by now and these would be higher picks btw). Each year away the pick is the further in value it drops. Fitt was clearly hired based on turning us around quickly. It’s one of the many reasons tanking isn’t really a thing as our player JJ is telling you in this original article. It would take the whole organization from the owners down admitting they aren’t winning soon with Burns and picks 2-3 years away having more value because that’s when we are still rebuilding. It would only make sense if Fitt had a longer leash and would more than likely be the ones making these picks anyway which you wouldn’t want. The question is would you rather have those Rams picks with the strong possibility of Fitt still being here or would you rather Fitt try to “win now” like he did and expedite his firing? Altering the timeline would affect more than just the Rams picks.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      I dont buy the idea that it would create more competitive games Given this: Seed Current Format Record Proposed Open Seeding Record 1 Lions 15–2 Lions 15–2 2 Eagles 14–3 Eagles 14–3 3 Buccaneers 10–7 Vikings 14–3 4 Rams 10–7 Commanders 12–5 5 Vikings 14–3 Rams 10–7 6 Commanders 12–5 Buccaneers 10–7 7 Packers 11–6 Packers 11–6 That would mean Wild Card round would have been Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Vikings(14/3) v Bucs(10/7) Commanders(12/5) v Rams(10/7) Instead of Eagles (14/3) v  Pack(11/6) Bucs(10/7) v Commanders(12/5) Rams(10/7) v Vikings(14/3) Then with the reseed it would mean that highest remaining seed would always draw the lowest remaining team.
