CAW CAW! "The Official 2017 New Orleans Pelicans Thread"

[caddo man]

So The Pelicans needed this win and hopefully takes stock in their second half collapse. Going to sleep on any team is dangerous.

good win last night

 

[HafBayked]

I had all but gave up on that game man

3rd quarter had me on the ropes...I went ahead and turned the lights off

watched the 4th silently and didnt dare get excited when they came back, as not to offset anything lol

good dub tho....they flowed well...looked like they were having fun w/ Jameer....lots of smiles and daps on court

win or loss that was good to see

That's considered a good win?

Holy shit y'all got low expectations

 

[AP21]

That's considered a good win?

Holy shit y'all got low expectations

i mean, they were up 20, gave up the lead, battled back and won

idk what tf you be looking for when you watch basketball, but in years past, there is no way they come back from a team rallying from that. Idc if its a lottery team or not

at this point, well let me speak for myself, after 3 games, i expected them to be 1-2...they are 1-2

what else you want brah ~shrugs~

Did you not watch that game? They played horribly especially with ill advised passes every other possesion and then on top of that they blew a huge lead to the lakers. Im not hating by saying you didn't earn the win but you can't feel good about that win. Because play like that will get you washed when you play a team that's not the lakers

i think we just talking at each other right now brah lol

rondo is out, and they signed Jameer like a day before the game

yeah, it was sloppy at times, but again, like i said, in the past, they would've given up the lead and it would've just gone downhill from there...they battled back and secured the victory. Yes, its one game, but there are still positives to be taken away from it brah lol

Nah you got two players at the top of they position on the same team and a one time all star. Blowing leads to the lakers, playing like shit

Ima tell you how I told a heat fan after the pacers game, I guess you can be happy the team got it's 1st win but that's a win you can't even feel good about. And if you do, your expectations and standards are low

 

[infamous114]

Yea, we haven't felt good about either win. It's like "Meh. Do better."

Top two players who are bigs which requires a game manager to set them up. Sadly, Nelson is like the first game manager AD ever played with so we shall see how we look tonight against Portland.

ok...i see what you saying

but after two lackluster seasons with a top 5 player in the league on the roster, it can only go up from there

Listen y'all had ryan Anderson, jrue, tyreke, and AD and got one playoff sweep out of it I have no confidence in y'all

Y'all obviously in that Kings/suns/Lakers/mavs territory

You beat the lakers who barely beat the Suns who have lost to everybody except the Kings

Wait until you play a team like detroit or Utah

Reality gonna set in

But I'm contradicting myself because I'm telling you to have higher standards...ah well

 

[caddo man]

If you gon keep entertaining this mfer then you might as well close the thread and do it in the NBA thread. This back and forth is looking sad as fuck.

 

[AP21]

nah...i get your pov now

season is still early, and roster is still unsettled unfortunately

it would be nice to not have the mental lapses, but one thing i saw on my TL was two plays in a row where they tried to go to Boogie in the post. Same post action

once was with Moore i think, and the other was with Nelson.

Nelson, clearly with the higher bball IQ noticed what they were doing with boogie. Attempted once or twice to get it, saw it wasnt there...put the ball on the floor towards the goal, drew the defense in, and kicked it out to Moore who hit that 3 to put he pels up by 8 iirc.

Moore kept pumping and pumping and pumping, and took like 8 secs off the clock trying to do so

i think if they remain healthy at key positions and the roster gets settled, its my hope to start seeing wins against more quality opponents

I feel you. Jameer Nelson actually a good pickup

Almost makes me feel like rondo not needed if jrue started at PG

Bruh nerdass geriatric? That is best you got. Keep trying bruh. You got time. It aint Friday but..........

 

[AP21]

tough loss

pretty much held CJ and Dame in check for practically the entire game

got killed on the boards. This was just a strange game. A lot of rebounds portland got was b/c two pels were fighting over the ball lol

AD goes down...negative MRI, so that obv changed what they were able to do, but they still had their chances.

My reaction to the AD news.................
