    True, I noted this in the post. I'm just losing what little confidence I have in Olshey to upgrade. I don't know... I don't expect an upgrade to our forwards.

    Not at all, doesn't mean it's frustrating watching the Lakers get superstars... again.

    Who said I'm surprised? That's what you got out of this?

    Yet, they're about to get Zion.

    Pels also have a ton of cap space to fill in some holes.

    And they literally have one other good player in Jrue. They're screwing over themselves... I mean maybe Rich Paul scared off all the other GM's and that's all they could get, I don't know but it seems like such a bad haul for a guy like AD...

    If this is Griffins first move, I'm scared for Pelican fans what his second move would be, is he gonna skip on Drafting Morant and Zion and go Take Bazely number one or something... lol.

    Anthony Davis is a good player. But he's not Kawhi Leonard or even Paul George. If Lebron goes down for any length of time, he's not making up for Lebron's production. So for me, it remains to be seen who else they can get.

    Id rather have AD than Paul George, though both seem to be hurt a lot...

    Once Lebron starts his decline, Lakers are done.

    How does "any of you" translate to me specifically talking about you?

    You responded to the thread I started and didn't quote anybody. Nobody said they were surprised by it.

    Can't tell yet if injuries are going to become a bigger problem with him or if that was just a fluke.
