.....we can start the rebuild with maybe Fears, Trey, Bey, Missi, and Queen as the starters with a first round pick,
Sorry, while the young man seems likable, Queen ain't 'it' and isn't athletic enough to ever be 'it'. Basketball is a 96' game and this imperative requirement to play on 48' of the court simply isn't in his toolbox. He can't jump with 5's and lacks the quickness to play in space against 4's or 3's.
If he is a cornerstone in the team's future, this franchise is in deep trouble. If you can't build around a uber-athletic short guy for his position (see # 1), you'd be crazy to believe you can build around an under-sized, unathletic guy at, perhaps, the most critical position defensively on any team.

re: NBA owners expected to vote on League Expansion to two more teams this summer
Posted by iykyk985 on 2/24/26 at 8:53 am to Geauxldilocks
Missed my entire point, sadly.
If The Pelicans could still get the Expansion Money, I would gladly relocate the existing team to Seattle or Las Vegas for their expansion team rights and a clean slate. We are currently in such a pickle that it will take years to dig out of this mess.

How was DJ able to wear #6? Thought the only guy in the league that could wear it was Jaylin Williams with OKC because he was grandfathered when the league retired the number?
Jordan was able to be grandfathered in, too. He has worn the # 6 throughout the majority of his career specifically with the Clippers, Nuggets, Mavs, Knicks and Nets.

The Pelicans won 21 games last season, BI was on the team.
CORRECTION: BI was here for a little over half the season. It's convenient of you to forget, huh?

At least in the Luka trade, it was Hall of Famer for Hall of Famer. But Gail Goodrich for Magic Johnson?
LMAO!!!
The whole six years that BI was in New Orleans, the Pelicans have never looked this futile (and went to the post season twice). That's only a fact.
Try again.

People, we are living through, the worst trade in the NBA since the old New Orleans Jazz traded away the draft rights for Magic Johnson for Gail Goodrich.
Why?
Despite the directive from upstairs, Derek Queen is virtually unplayable, and his athleticism suggests that this will always be the case.

Nah, you're mistaken; the team cancer has just played in the last 30 games straight.

We're talking about BI; not # 1 or # 25.

re: Chris Paul for next head coach
Posted by iykyk985 on 2/14/26 at 8:30 am to whatiknowsofar
I absolutely love Chris Paul's game. He was (and is) amazing and definitely a first ballot Hall of Famer.
But I think we have to keep it real; this is 2026 and the players rule the sport (ask Lebron; he'll tell you). A coach...a manager...a leader of any type (in any sport) cannot be a polarizing figure. And, if we can say anything about CP3 it's that he is a very polarizing figure and quite tactless at times.

Oh, I agree whole-heartily. I merely answered the question as posed; I would be pro-active and try to dump the load.

I'd offer them Zion to get it back.

The Ingram that stops the ball and acts like a pussy when he’s guarded tough and is unplayable against dort, brooks and anyone physical?
With all due respect, Ingram wore # 14 when he was a Pelican; not # 1. I'm kind of surprised with your confusion. One looks like a basketball player who is a triple threat, while the other 'stops the ball', has a limited game and looks like a nose tackle.

You mean the guy the Pelicans traded away for Kelly Olynyk. Bruce Brown and a stale chicken salad sandwich on molded rye bread?
That Ingram?
The Ingram that was the root to all the problems the Pelicans had over the last six years?
That Ingram?
The Ingram that averaged well over 20 a night on efficient shooting for the Pelicans?
That Ingram
The Ingram that is probably the most underappreciated talent this city has ever seen in any sport?
That Ingram?
Good for THAT INGRAM!!!!

Right now, it's all academic. Once we are established as a lottery team, where our (Atlanta's Pick) falls is at the mercy of the ping-pong gods. If you don't believe me, ask Dallas.

Aside from Flagg, who would you give up two lottery picks for?
