I don't know why being in a small market matters anymore for the superstar.  ESPN/TNT/The Internet will find you.  Zion is already world famous, so being in NOLA now isn't the same as 40 years ago.  Plus he won't have any local competition except for Drew Brees. Lebron and Kyrie didn't have a problem playing in Cleveland.  The smaller markets only hurt the role players ie Milwaukee Bucks, most of us had no idea who is on that team aside from Greek and maybe Eric Bledsoe.

Maybe he just doesn’t want to live in a shitty city in shitty state? It’s a great place to visit but he doesn’t want to live there.

the suburbs are pretty good.  Doesn't have to live in the ghetto with that much money. 

All NBA cities are shit, except for Portland.

Sure. If you don’t account for the dining, nightlife, gambling, tourism, arts, culture, and Lil’ Wayne ( or whoever is cool in the 504 now) influence.

Downtown New Orleans and Durham NC are pretty much the same place for a 19 year old millionaire black kid.

Damn near any place is great with multiple millions in the bank.   More importantly, he only has to be there 6 mos out of the yr and even during that time he won't there half the time

19yo black millionaires don't care about any of that. It's all about 8 girls twerking on the grinder.

Im guessing most NBA types (yes, very racist) dont GAF about Denver or Toronto.  Or Dallas or Houston for that matter.

 

From that perspective, NBA outside of Atlantic Division and half of Pacific is shit.

 

Toronto, Cleveland, Detroit, Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Charlotte, Orlando, Dallas, Houston, Memphis, San Antonio, Denver, Minneapolis, OKC, Portland, SLC, Phoenix, Sacto

 

I rather like the ones in Italics but im not a young black urban millionaire athlete

Would NYK send #3 pick for AD? Duke reunion in Big Easy!

It should take a whole lot more than #3.   I don't know that they have enough.    Knox, DSJ, #3 and a couple more picks MIGHT be enough.

Need to have longhornmatt work up a trade for us.
