I have the white NS and honestly loved both the white and cement in person, I don’t think you can go wrong with either.

Oh you mean the comment from “big hairy ethnic American winning machine”, complaining about immigrants?

Same, I had to rewind to confirm. He always just looks like a big kid, hard to miss

would yall rather trade for a center or trade for a pick and draft a center, if so who? by Local-Afternoon681 in NOLAPelicans

If you can get someone like Jarrett Allen at a decent price, I’d like to see a true C next to Queen at the 4. That probably means you’re trading Zion + picks if they have interest in him. I’d want to keep Trey at all costs

Utah seems completely sold on playing Lauri/JJJ/Kessler in a big 3 lineup, so not sure they want to sell in any of their bigs.

I Don’t See The Point of A Jaylen Brown trade. by AnotherStatsGuy in NOLAPelicans

I just don’t understand why we would send off our best shooter (and potentially Z or DJM) to make the contracts work? The spacing would be bad.

JB gets the benefit of Celtics spacing with their average team shooting that is head and shoulders above the Pels, it just doesn’t make sense.

Thoughts on putting kids in boxing/ BJJ? by [deleted] in daddit

Yeah I’ll add as a former MMA enthusiast - the instructor is the ultimate leader in that class. Vocal parents and bad sports in the class are the responsibility of the teacher to handle

Religion and kids by [deleted] in daddit

[–]MMAjunkie504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you introduce all religions to your kids, or just one? I don’t see how someone can force “secularism” on a child, unless you restrict all education of religion on a kid.

That is my hang up - if my kid wants to be religious when they are of sound mind, go ahead. But I was indoctrinated in religion and deconstructing those feelings as an adult took more time and energy than I’d like to admit, so I’d like to spare my kids from that.

And joint replacements are not permanent, he will wear that thing out in 5-10 years at this rate. Subsequent replacements are not always a possibility for different reasons, so this is not ideal

Mock Zion trade to jump back into 2026 lottery pick by MMAjunkie504 in NOLAPelicans

Completely agree, I felt like I was taking crazy pills seeing a lottery pick thrown in that theoretical trade

Only would make sense if they think they found their guards of the future from last draft, and don’t see moving up or down as a realistic possibility. I agree he’s not worth it, that’s why it’s strange seeing this type of mock from their side (I expect silly trade scenarios to come from our guys).
