I don't think you need to start over. They just need to move Murray and Poole and waive Looney in the offseason and get some shooters here.

As far as Zion goes, I'm going to wait and see since everything we've seen so far says Zion and Queen could be a monster frontcourt together.

Once again poor 3 point and free throw shooting cost this team a win. Our shooting has been so inconsistent for so long.

On a positive note DQ made Jokic his bitch most of the night. That was impressive.

7-31 from 3 is unreal

I don’t know why it’s so negative in here tonight. The team is so much better with Zion on the court. He was a team best +14 on the night. His presence allowed for Trey and Queen to be so much better. If they can keep up that level of play, then Zion will start actually having space.

The glaring issue with this team is the absolute lack of shooting. If they just shoot 30% from 3 they win the game. Overall, tonight was encouraging.

If it wasn’t an unprotected pick that was traded for Queen it wouldn’t be so bad

To bring the trade topic again after watching how Queen played against Jokic in his 15th NBA game (in both defense and offense) is simply retarded.
If he keeps playing like that who gives a frick about the pick this year?!?

Desperately need Poole back for 3 point shooting.

I didn’t know Queen and Zion can play so well together. That was great to see. Also, it helped Trey out too!

+14 in a 8 point loss is crazy from Zion. I wish this brother would stay healthy, man. He really is special. Maybe this last injury was the last one ever and he plays 100% of games going forward, only missing games for the birth of his children!

Yeah that ain’t gonna happen. Don’t fall into that false hope of Zion getting it together. It’s great to watch but it’s not long term.

Just watched the highlights and it pissed me off to see JV hit all those middies on us. That dude couldn’t even make a putback when he played for us. At least Queen posterized him.

J Val was arguably our best and most consistent player. We have been losing at an alarming rate ever since we dumped him for cap space.

JV fricking sucked. I will never change my opinion on that. I hated watching that statue miss putback after putback.

That will lead to too many missed games as well.

It's better to hope that this injury was Ochsner-strated by Joe in order to get rid of Willie.

Joke aside, he played very good defense in this game and was driving to the right side more times than the last few seasons combined (unfortunately all he found on those drives were some brickers).

The entire problem with the trade is not that we got Queen.

The problem is that we could have Queen AND a top 5 pick if the dumbass put the right protections on it. Could you imagine that?

Everybody keeps arguing that we could have gotten DQ with top 5 protected.

Does anyone have actual facts that this is true or just speculation?

Shamit has reported that Atlanta called to clarify that it was indeed an unprotected pick because they couldn’t believe he would be stupid enough to have it unprotected
