Two of those three have made their league/conference championship game within the last 20 years.

I'd argue wishcasting Zion to be somewhat competent and Trey Murphy to be a star is well beyond fake dreaming.

i guess i'm at i'm over arguing about zion. he's good enoug on the court that it will not help us not having him yet he's been such a disappointment.

guys like trey, i'd just say we have to give dumars an offseason to see if he can find a coach that is the right fit and someone that can motivate and get these guys to gel.

Or we can flip him for a 1st.

If JJJ can go for three firsts, Trey is a good enough shooter that should be able to at least get us back in decent draft position this summer.

Nobody thinks we are trading player for player(s) to improve our roster

We would makes trades with guys at the peak of their value for draft assets before we lose them for less or for nothing

The ultimate wish cast is to think that the team with the 2nd to worst record in the league is going to magically be a playoff team just because we find a different coach

I agree just don’t have the right leadership


You agree that this roster is a playoff team? The roster that is in dead last in the standings?

We can potentially get someone better and younger than Trey in the draft.

We have to blow up/rebuild and the timeline doesn't work out to where Trey is a piece to build around. He's not some can't-miss star, he's a tall shooter that can't dribble and plays mediocre defense. He's just inflated on this roster because he's the only long-range threat.

Never happened when he was GM in Detroit. What makes you think anything changes?

Think Darvin Ham or Kevin Ollie gel this team ? LOL

Pelicans front office is the exact fricking definition of insanity. Nothing more I can really say.

You build a chest of assets. We arent winning shite this year, or next year or the year after that.

I love Trey but keeping him around so we can win 20 games a year until he leaves in free agency is retarded.

People on this board are delusional when it comes to this roster. We suck. This is a 2-3 year rebuild AT LEAST. It’ll take even longer considering you’re the worst team in the league this year with ZERO draft picks to show for it.

I forgot about this. Anyone that thinks we’re a coach away just remember that we’re not hiring the coach you want. Dumars is hiring either Darvin Ham or Kevin Ollie this summer to be our coach
