    if zion don't get traded, my guess is all the high profile free agents are going to east!
    i don't think they stay in west to compete in better west conference with zion as new addition!

    New Orleans needs to take out a restraining order on Anthony Davis against Zion because AD is gonna try & fill Williamson's head with horrible things about the organization.

    That was as good as can be expected. Boston, New York and Dallas disappointed, Lakers move right up to 4! I’m happy!!!!

    Randle is unguardable but a bad defender Zion is probably a top 10 defender in the league. He will be able to just swallow up guards the way Lebron did in his prime.

    no surprise to me contrary to what everyone was saying about Knicks certainly getting #1... but never thought the Pelicans would get it. Lakers almost snuck up we wouldve cried foul if that happen.

    The positive thing about this shake up in the draft order is that teams will stop tanking. The 3 teams with the worst record ended up at #3, #5 & #6

    Wouldn’t be surprised one bit if this was a deliberate move by NBA to send that exact message. Smart

    Not sure any team could come up with a realistic offer to keep New Orleans from investing everything in Zion.

    Hoping this kid is the next LeBron minus the arrogance, selfishness, and overall nonsense.

    Zion seems charismatic and down to Earth, the total opposite of LeBron.

    The NBA 1st Draft pick salary will be over 6 million this year. Add to that a Nike deal. Do you think he’d turn his back on all that

    Let's just hope Anthony Davis doesn't get in his head about how terrible it is to play in New Orleans.

    Guarantee you if they cross paths AD will make an effort to do this

    What about trading Zion for Ja and Jaren Jackson? Then sign Jimmy Butler. That is a 76 win team.

    Could Zion and Barrett end up teammates again?

    Would the Knicks give up that 3rd pick for Anthony Davis?
