Derik queen saying he's close with Troy weavers son in his interview doesn't make me feel great.

I mean our entire front office was built off of connections. Gayle’s knows Dumars, who knows weaver, etc.

Not a single hire in our front office was made off of merit

The Pelicans traded their pick next year unprotected betting on a team with a starting lineup of Poole/Herb/Trey/Zion/Missi

Legitimately who are we better than in the west cuz I only see one team for sure and that’s the Jazz.

There’s no hope man. We just gave up a valuable asset for a weird player. This franchise is unserious and I’m really struggling for reasons to keep watching.

I wouldn’t have been upset if it was a 2031 first or something like that but next year’s?! Man read the room…

I could even understand you using the unprotected pick to go get Bailey because of his elite upside. I wouldn’t have agreed with it but you can wrap your head around the thinking at least

How can Queen and Zion play together?

How can Murray and Fears play together?

It’s not betting on us. The dumbass traded the bucks picks that will be top 3 next year in a loaded draft. Trade gets a F-

What’s even crazier is we also gave them this years first. The trade is incomprehensible.

So do we go get a vet PG to hold down the fort while Murray is out or spend all of the MLE on a big? Not sure how the cap works fully but it would have been awesome to be able to trade with Portland for Robert Williams and absurd him into BI's trade exception. Think it's off by 100-200K.

We gave them 23 this year...that wasn't an issue

Honestly, had we moved a 2028 or 2031 1st with some protections no one would have been bothered...

I'd love for Gayle to fork over some cash to move up for a guy like Penda

He’s right but it’s just incredibly risky when both the bucks and pels seem to be at their worst. Borderline reckless but maybe it works. I think Queen can be a good Zion replacement in the future.
