All chips on the table. Do you want us to win?

Any Pelicans fan would want us to win. Because our draft pick is gone, there is literally no incentive to lose.

Want and expect are two different things unfortunately.

When that pick ends up at 6-10 and the Hawks take some international project, with Queen being a major contributor, do you think I'm going to be bragging or rehashing history?

It’s really, really sad (and embarrassing) that you just don’t get it. How good Queen turns out or where we end up this year will not change the fact it was a ridiculous trade because (and see if you can understand this) WE GAVE UP WAY MORE THAN WE HAD TO GiVE TO MOVE FROM 23 to 13. Now if we are god awful the effects are even worse. But is was a disaster of a trade even if we make the playoffs. It’s not complicated, even though you apparently can’t understand it.
