Crap ownership, loser GM, terrible roster, and an absolute dunce of a coach. It’s like some of you were expecting this team to be good lol. And cherry on top, that joke of a trade for queen which cemented themselves as the laughing stock of the nba

People’s fandom blinds them from reality. This team is fricked for a while. No picks next year slows down our rebuild process as well. We won’t be good for years

Trading away an unprotected first on the cusp of a season loaded in the west and an anticipated rebuild was an absolute nightmare of a decision. We are going to have a top 5 pick and traded it away for Queen. Just wow

Have fun trying to avoid those 3 generational prospects in this sexy arse draft.

We really chose the wrong time to trade that damn pick now we are fricked.

It’s going to get real bad if it’s hits the lotto in the top 4.

Pels will be the laughingstock of the entire league. And they still had people defending this trade not long ago.

We not even guaranteed top 3. Last year we thought we picked top 5 and look what happened. Queen has look good so far. I wouldn’t say this roster is terrible, however the coach is.

not exaggerating it could be franchise destroying. Dumars legacy will be worse than what it already was

And yes I understand it may not land top 3. I hope it doesn’t. But if it does. Heads should roll off.

I agree with you Mac. But I’m so tired of seeing a post after every lost. It’s getting repetitive. Just see what happens after the season instead of trying to be a fortune teller.

You’re right. I’m guilty of being repetitive with the posting. I just rant as I cope through the pain of all my teams being arse

Love the gatekeeping on this board.

Always funny when holier-than-thou fans get mad at fans for saying bad things about a franchise has two playoff wins since 2018.

We're a terrible franchise.

There is a reason why both the Saints and the Pelicans are possibly the worst teams and probably the least hopeful franchises in their respective leagues. It is nice to be hopeful about young talent like Fears and Queen, or the mirage of Zion Williamson playing the majority of the season’s games, but the writing was on the wall when Joe Dumars was hired to run the show. The people making decisions in the ownership group are not serious people. There is no hope until these teams are sold.

Lol what? It gets old when it’s the same bitching almost every lost. Say something critical like how Willie Green still hasn’t learn how to close out games. Murphy hasn’t take a leap. Queen should start at center. Not the “oh we gave up a top 3 pick” every single damn thread. Say that if it happens, not so early in the season.

You can say bad things about the franchise but to keep making a thread every time gets repetitive. Queen isn’t even that bad of a player honestly. Was the trade kind of crazy? Yes but it happened and now we got to see how it plays out.

Funny how you said it’s gate keeping when most of this board is negative and there’s few who are optimistic and a realist .

Tell me something to be optimistic about.

I’ll give you Fears, but you and I know if he continues to develop he is going to want out like CP3 and AD. We are a poverty farm franchise for the NBA and are lucky and undeserving of a team.

Most of our fandoms are ready to travel with the Pels if they can go to a better city in Las Vegas or Seattle to get a better shake from the league and get out from Gayle’s incompetence.

They are a stain on our city.

They’d still be defending it. Problem is the season started and the dreams of 45 plus wins and the 6 seed are long shot.

In order to be disappointed one must have hope, that ship sailed long ago for me lol. I never missed a game up until last year, now I just find myself checking the score. Hopeless
