They saw the Trae Young deal and said yeah let’s just not even bother shopping Zion

Queen and Fears didn’t have to be included in this list lol

committed to mediocrity

He should’ve stopped the tweet at “The New Orleans Pelicans are disappointing”

What a weirdly worded post. Why would Queen or Fears be available and I bet they are disappointed there is no market for Zion. Murphy and Jones are the relevant players here.

Joe Dumbass

Can’t ever break up this 8-31 juggernaut

Zion, Herb and Trey should all be on market

What Dumars doing? 😭

Holy shit Pels fucking trade Zion

I understand why Zion doesn’t have a huge market… but he’s been pretty good the last few weeks and the potential is obviously still sky high. I would have expected someone to bite and give up something for him.

unrelated but Chris Haynes used to go to the same gym as me back in 2018 - 2019. dude would play the most lazy pick up basketball ive ever seen lol. he was taller than he looks on tv tho

Who the fuck thought Queen or Fears was up for grabs?

Makes 0 sense. 2nd worst team in the league and yet your roster is full of untouchables???? You have no pick this year, you have to trade something.

Although who am I kidding, this is a classic Joe Dumara move.

New Orleans: “We’re good”

Everyone else: “NO YOU’RE NOT!”

No one was offering for Queen, and Fears anyway

Lakers sub really thought they would get Herb or Trey for Rui, Gabe and Dalton

Why the fuck would they trade Derik Queen?

Chris Haynes clinging on to any potential scoops he has left out there. This one could not more clearly read like a negotiation tactic.

I mean, two of them are rookies, no reason to trade them. It’s really just testing the market on everyone else.

Good news for Atlanta!

I disappointed Sydney Sweeney and Ana de Armas in just this way myself … sorry ladies, not available

I don’t get why everyone’s so high on their players. They’re apparently all good and yet the team is fucking terrible.

Just saw Rob Pelinka fall to his knees at Erewhon

This is hilarious, they are not “disappointing the market,” they are disappointed in the market. No one is trading anything substantial for Zion, because he is hurt 70 percent of the time. Of course they are not trading Queen and Fears who are rookies and they are a terrible team. So that leaves Jones and Murphy and if they got the right offer, I guarantee they would trade one of them.

After that rumour that the Bulls were after Zion that’s some very pleasant news.

Lmao Zion too? Sure pels you do you

Negotiation tactic

Good!

There’s no way they get anything for Zion at the deadline. Would be easier to move in the summer if they are going to anyway.

I don’t want them to trade Murphy.

this only makes sense if they think the trade market looks better in the offseason rather than now

Dumars should honestly lose one of his rings for how incompetent he has been ever since he stepped foot in a front office.

Wait, Los Pelicanitos aren’t protecting Jordan Poole and Jordan Hawkins?

The Pelicans are only capable of making trades when they don’t make sense.

“Disappointing the market” is so funny

Zion is the easiest trade decision ever. Take what you can get now. But hey, good thing they still have next years first… oh wait 

Now please for my Kings’ sake, can they start winning some games?

Who wants Zion right now anyway?

Dude has a off the court problem with Onlyfans models.

Makes sense, They don’t own their own draft pick

I think that alone would make a strong starting five. They’re all young players, just let them grow together and develop.

Mr. Dumars, clearly the smart move is to make the trade and tank for next year’s draft.

When you list off those names, sounds like a lot of nice players. But, together they lead to the road of mediocre

i mean why do they need to trade Zion, Murphy and Jones?

its not like a team will give them a lottery pick so then whats the point? they’re already bad.

any late round first round pick they can get, the best case scenario is becoming one of those guys.

Trade Hawkins and give him a chance somewhere else

Queen and Fears being included on this list is weird. Dude just listed their whole stating lineup I guess lol.

everyone always calls for a total rewrite when the project gets messy but usually refactoring is the better choice. trading the entire core just puts you back at square one with zero legacy knowledge. better to let the rookies develop inside a structured system than a chaotic one.

Pels have so many guys other teams want and would love but they still suck.

I’m more interested on why he mentioned the rookies? Are teams calling on them?

Just trade for them anyways. Trey Murphy is worth it. On one of the best non-minimum contracts in NBA. 

Bro Demarcus Cousins had more of an impact with the Kings than Zion with the Pels. This is sooo bad. His trade value is going down by the day. Like I assume the supermax is nonexistent at this point??

kings fans rejoicing

Ok 👍🏼

Typical Troy weaver/Joe Dumars activities

What are the Pelicans and Jazz even doing, should get their profit share frozen until they manage to build a proper team because this feels like some welfare scam

From the listening to various podcasts, it seemed like the market for Trey Murphy was huge.

Many teams were reportedly interested or should’ve been interested.

Seems like New Orleans could’ve gotten a near Mikal Bridges return.

Mpj price went up

none wants zion cuz hes a bust since year 2

Disappointing the market or confusing the market? 

Makes sense. Trading them would be a tanking move and they dont have their pick anyway.

Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is?

Insanity is doing the exact same fucking thing over and over again, expecting shit to change. That is crazy.

Investigate them for not tanking -Hawks Fans

I mean of course? Why would the pelicans trade any of these guys unless they got value.

Dumars should be looking in the market for a job in any other franchise

They aint’t getting two first round picks for each player.

Never Change, Joe Dumars

I just want Zion off that team so bad. I really thought the increase of minutes and playing starter minutes in back to back games the last couple weeks was because they were gonna trade him and wanted his value high, but I guess they are just gonna continue to waste his career

it’s not their job to not “disappoint” the other teams

I still don’t understand why New Orleans would want to trade Murphy or Jones anyway unless someone really tried to overpay.

Just saw a bunch of Lakers fans fall to their knees at a Jollibee

Trades are so not hot right now

Honestly think this helps other teams out.

I only realistically see them giving up either Herb or Zion amd both would be over pays.

Thanks for giving us Langdon. Think he was the best part of that organization

This is the dumbest fuckin team lmao

Pelicans missed their opportunity to trade Zion a few years ago. Never made sense to hold on to him. Still doesn’t.

Thanks again, Pelicans! Without your generosity, us Pacers fans would be hurting this year. Well, worse than we are.

But what if I really want Trey Murphy? Like, REALLY want him?

Mikal bridges really ruined NBA trading forever

…I guess we’re keeping him…hooray 😒  

Why are they gatekeeping Zion just let him play where he wants

If it weren’t for the fact that they probably never want to trade with the Atlanta front office again, they should be calling about Missi.

“Our current roster is working great and we are not making changes” - team with an 8-31 record.

We are in an all time low ball market. I was shocked at the kd return even though it ended up working out and it looks like teams in general just dont wanna send out too much capital in return for a big contract nowadays

When you gave up an unprotected pick, you obviously don’t want to finish last lol

I know they don’t own their draft pick but you’re 8-31, second worst team in the league, just give it up 😭

Am i giving Joe Dumars too much credit thinking this is just a negotiation tactic.

There’s definitely a market for Murphy, Jones, Queen, and Fears.

It’s just Pelicans know they won’t get the ‘value’ they want from a Zion trade.

Best Pelicans team in years and yall want them to trade it all away smh

so alvarado is available 👀

Content to be medicore

This is disheartening to Warriors fans who believed they could get Herb and Trey for a ham sandwich.

At least we aren’t these guys

This is probably just a leverage play but if it’s not I’d be pretty shocked. Zion has no trade value but there must be teams calling about Herb and Murphy, both of them are great fits on a ton of playoff teams. The Pels should be in a full rebuild so what’s the point in holding onto those guys?

Chris Haynes got 0 Credibility after Trae trade. FRAUD WATCH

Lol why is the fuck is Queen’s name in this report. Who on Earth thinks they’re wheeling and dealing for a guy the Pels front office is this diehard about
