How does one make a generalization when referring to their own opinion, not the threads

Are you new to the NBA? LeBron has bounced Toronto 3 straight seasons and then went West - you could argue the Raptors are only in the ECF because the LeBron boogeyman is no longer in the East. Game of Zones has made fun of this numerous times.
Because I'm referring to your own opinion.

And no I'm aware of what the games in the past have been about. That doesn't really have anything to do with the current achievements or Lebron and no amount of jokes or narratives will do that, but okay.

People are just on Drake's ass because he's another rich asshole that the rules don't apply to. We'd all like to pat Lowry on his plump ass, but we do it, and security is putting us in a headlock. Few years and a bunch of info is going to come out about him fucking with underage girls, anyway. No sir.

KD will sign with the Bucks or Raptors, it is known. You have to become one with the snake to understand it.

Your response makes zero sense.

Current achievements are only because LeBron isn't around. Leonard probably won't resign either. Better hope Siakam turns into an all star.

I'll always appreciate what Drake did for TO and the help he gave to the Raps notoriety. I find the clown antics amusing even. But the Bucks are right, he gets away with shit no one else would tolerate.

I expect Masai to tell him to chill in game 6. Rightfully so. Beyond that the Rsps organization wont do anything to him and they shouldmt. He is a part of their brand. They arent dumb.

Your rebuttal makes zero sense.

If you seriously think current achievements are only because LeBron isn't around as something serious, then that says a looot. But okay, if you want to play being a joke then that's fine too. Kawhi and Siakam also have nothing to do with this, but you have fun with that.

3 seasons where the Raps have beaten everyone else they've faced save for LeBron. Who from the East can say they've beaten LeBron over that span? Who from the East has fallen to other, lesser teams?

Trade Anthony Davis for a 32 year old undersized shooting guard and a 32 year old perpetually injured wing, brehs.

I never said that. That would be insane. I was referring to trading Jrue Holiday for that package. This is year one of the rebuild and CP3 has a 2+1 player option left.

Given the pelicans timeframe Zion and Barrett would still be on rookie scale for another year after that deal expires so you aren't hurting any cap flexibility in terms of adding free agents for contention. Furthermore given how it's far more beneficial to be over the cap and using the Luxury tax line as your cap, Having 40M in trade ballast to get a star via trade or just to acquire assets like extra picks is a useful asset to have. Paul is no doubt declining and on one of the worst contracts in the NBA but he will still be a capable veteran backup at the end of his deal.

Plus his reputation is better then that of his actual production and he should get you a better package in return at next years Draft then one that includes holiday.

Edit. Plus don't act like CP3, Zion, RJ, Knox and a non rookie mobile stretch 5 for floor spacing wouldn't be really fun

If David Griffin trades Anthony Davis and Jrue Holiday for one of the worst contracts in basketball, the worst player in the NBA last year, and the only guy in college basketball that could slow down Zion Williamson (which would be a selling point obviously if he wasn't on the same team) he would be fired on the spot.

That's complete hyperbole and a bad faith argument. Trading AD to the Knicks for Barrett, Knox and a bunch of future picks is by far the best deal New Orleans could get.

Trading Holiday is more complex, since there are many more options. However one thing is certain. Efrid Peyton isn't that good and you don't want him as your starting PG. Especially around wings that can't shoot.

So you want a veteran PG and with CP3 you get 2 years of solid play and leadership before you either become a contender or you trade him for Useful assets.

Everything I said is trivially true. Regardless, the Pels have already indicated they have little interest in Knox. A Knicks deal would almost certainly depend on whether the Celtics (who still have the best theoretical package) don't get involved, whether the Lakers are frozen out or get cute, and how many future picks the Knicks are willing to attach to the 3rd pick and Mitchell Robinson.
So you want a veteran PG and with CP3 you get 2 years of solid play and leadership before you either become a contender or you trade him for Useful assets.
No one is trading useful assets for a 36 year old Chris Paul making 44 million US dollars. Trading a valuable asset for Chris Paul's contract, unless you are getting all the 1sts Morey can offer, would be the single dumbest move the Pelicans can make right now. Like, did you not pay attention to how the Pelicans botched the Anthony Davis era?

The Pels should surround Zion with a veteran point guard, so they should trade their veteran PG for an older more expensive veteran point guard.
