They have a group of yutes that can have a good 6-8 year run as one of the top teams in the west.
We could have had David Griffin but Jeanie happened. Props to the NO think tank, they might be turning the Pelicans into the Saints.
It's not hard when the team lucks out and lands the number 1 pick during a draft with a generational talent like Zion.
Then why is it so hard when a team lucks into the number 2 pick 3 times and has nothing to show for it? Ingram was a solid pick, DLO was pissed away and Lonzo was a mistake. Griffin >>>>>>>>> Magic. Again, thanks Jeanie.
It's not brain surgery or rocket science. Number 1 draft pick in a lottery with a generational talent like Zion >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> number 2 pick for solid players. _________________ I'm like a Hadouken, down-right Fierce!
We were a pick away from being able to draft him. Question is would we have traded that pick for AD. _________________ How NBA 2K18 failed the All-Time Lakers:

It's insane how NBA defenses can't figure out how to stop a guy without a jumper from getting to the rim like he does. Zion's ability to get low with his size is transformative - he's such an NFL player but in the NBA. _________________ Under New Management

Gotta give props to the Pelicans for keeping him healthy so far. The naysayers thought he was going to get injured with his playstyle and weight, but it hasn't happened so far. Assuming he continues his dominance, Pels will be great in a year or to, and they should be gunning for the playoffs this season if they fix their defense.
Like Luka, he's a generational talent and the Pels are in the playoff hunt thanks to him (and Ingram). Interesting that 2 generational talents have come from recent drafts. It's like winning the lottery.

wtf did he do to his body?
Some of us felt like the best comparison for Zion is Charles Barkley, and the fact that he's now packing lots of blubber makes that comparison look even better.
