We need to try to trade Queen if it helps get us a top 20 pick

I love Fears but I hate to say it but I don’t really care for Queen and I don’t see his game jumping a huge margin. If we are truly keeping Zion, I believe you need to move Queen. They will never be able to play with each other and sone team might be willing to take a shot with Queen developing. If Zion is going then that’s different but it seems Dumars is against that. This is Jeremiah Fears’ team now.

Well if we are keeping Zion and giving him an extension then Queen could get moved. Now we got reports Troy wants back in the draft. LOL

Queen is really hard to project. That triple double against Jokic was elite but way too many low effort games.

He’s a trap. He could get it together and be an all pro or he could just float through like Zion and we waste years on his potential.

If he got committed, he could be dominant.

It’s a deep draft, Queen for anything 10-15 is reasonable.

Agreed. Queen is just so hard to build around I would rather not go down that same road we’ve been doing with Zion where you need a very specific roster construction around them to succeed

There is no way he would trade Queen for anything less than a top 5. That’s not saying he’s worth a top 5. That’s saying anything outside the top 5 would make Dumars admit he’s a fricking idiot.

Scares the hell out of me. You know we are about to throw away the MIL 27 draft pick for a pick in the 20s.

Here’s Dumar’s brilliant move Poole and our 2027 unprotected 1st for a mid 20’s pick this year. We suck again and he gives up another top 5 pick.

Y'all need to chill. Queen has a lot of issues Cousins was criticized for early on in his career. Y'all need to give him some time to adjust and develop.

This woukd be him admitting what we all knew when he made the trade last year. So it will never happen.

Fletcher is such a goofball.

It is crazy that dumars fixated on queen to be "his guy" in the draft. You really can't play him at center and you already have zion.

Dumars went out and made 2 problems for himself by trading that pick.

If we can get a mild version of Sengun out of Queen, I think its the makings of a good duo.

Now yes, Sengun is taller and plays center while Queen is a PF (6'11 vs 6'9) so that's one thing, but their rookie years are rather similar.

Shooting spits
PER 36
Adavnced
Sengun - 19
47.4/24.8/71.1 (TS% 55.2)
16.7 PPG, 9.5 RPG, 4.5 APG, 3.5 TOV, 1.4 SPG, 1.6 BPG
-1.6 OBPM, 0.6 DBPM, -1.0 BPM, 0.4 VORP, 16.0 PER
107 ORTG, 113 DRTG

vs

Queen - 20
47.3/26.1/79.5 (TS% 54.6)
16.9 PPG, 10.2 RPG, 5.3 APG, 3.4 TOV, 1.5 SPG, 1.3 BPG
-1.5 OBPM, 0.7 DBPM, -0.8 BPM, 0.6 VORP, 15.9 PER
108 ORTG, 115 DRTG


Not unreasonable to think he could be a future 20/10/5 PF

My friend, you nailed it.

We've just been through seven years of false hope and some people refuse to learn. I guess most Pelican Fans believe in the one in a 1,000,000 Powerball, too.

DEFENSE!!! DEFENSE!!! DEFENSE!!!

Mackel's dumb arse must post here. The typical fan calling for Myles Turner to be on the Pels for 10 years.
