Think that’s confirmed. You don’t get a triple double as a center and almost multiple other triple doubles in a quarter of your rookie season by accident

If only the pick was top 4 protected and the trade would have been a grand slam.

I know but it was still worth it. Queen is pretty much a guarantee at this point and you don’t know if the guy we draft next year will hit

It does suck not having a pick but the caveat is that we have a young star which is what we need right now

If they pick 4th or lower, maybe.

But the top three if this draft could all be superstars.

Peterson is the best SG prospect since Kobe.

Would you take next years pick back in exchange for Fears?

Idk Queen looks like a bona fide superstar to me. 33/10/10 in limited minutes 1 month into his rookie season

Exactly. We can run the offense through him. The real question is how does Zion fit into this…?

He doesn’t. We need to trade him for whatever we can and move on

frick Zion. He barely fits into anything. That's kind of the problem with him. I'd trade him for a half eaten shoelace just to be done with him.

Zion without the ball in his hands doesn't offer much. Bring him off the bench until traded.

WTH after last game the trending topic was that Queen is trash. Now he is a star.

Currently there’s only 3 guys in this upcoming draft who I’d be upset about not getting. Honestly been a lot of underwhelming players so far outside of the top 3. Still early tho

Like others have said Peterson looks like he’s gonna be a superstar. Boozer looks great as well. Dybansta has looked good too but need to see more

So now Dumars is a genius for the trade?

They had Fears ranked #5 and Queen #6 on their draft board

If Queen would be thrown into next year's draft and you had this preview of what his pro career would look like what pick do you think he'd be? We got a top three pick next year. His name is Derik Queen and we hit on the pick. People are assuming you'd hit on next year's pick and that's far from a guarantee.

You think Dumars is like man I made an awesome trade or man I fricked up and should’ve put protection on that pick?

I think I know the answer. What an idiot.

I know they have the Atl executive saying they cannot believe we offered a pick without protections.

Does anyone have proof Atl would have made the trade with protections?

Maybe Atl said no to a trade with protections never expecting NO to wave the protections.
