He played some f***ing great defense that second quarter.

Agreed.  Folks gotta get more sophisticated in how they view games.  Jollins' counting stats don't look good but he's impacted the game quite well tonight.  He's not on that 20/10 track but he's doing his job rn.

He can't pass himself the ball. I don't like seeing him underutilized, but the offense is doing fine and he's playing his part. If the coach isn't going to make an emphasis on getting him the ball, there will be more games like this.

Then if he starts jacking up shots whenever he touches the ball and not in the flow, there'll be criticism too. He's playing individual and team defense.

Anatomy?

Yep. Biology as well and we did really well with Chemistry.

Well, it would've been ADay and JDay... but yeah, turned out those were declined... one of those mysteries of life.

 

But wow, someone's Photographer of the Night, eh?

Well demand the fkn ball. Trae has taken 14 shots already...They might as well trade JC and and just put a defensive player only(OO) at PF.. smh

I can't wait for election day just so they stop rolling these garbage ads. I get there's millions of dollars behind these campaigns, but you'd think they could do something better than repetitive attack ads.

( doooo . . . . doooo . . . . dooooo )

 

(doooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo )

 

The National Basketball Association has issued . . .

• A 30 POINT WARNING for TRAE YOUNG
• A TRIPLE-DOUBLE WARNING for DEJOUNTE MURRAY

Effective until 10 pm Eastern time.

 

At 8:29 PM, National Basketball Association radar was showing a barrage of floaters from Trae Young, along with long bombs from 30+ feet, indicating that a 30 point WARNING may have to be upgraded to a HIGH POINT EMERGENCY very soon.

National Basketball Association radar was also showing a plethora of assists from Dejounte Murray, complimenting the points and rebounds he's accumulating so far.  This has also prompted the triple-double WARNING to be issued.

Defensive conditions are favorable for both players to reach these marks, which may prompt a WARNING to be issued within the next 30 minutes.  This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION for Pelicans fans.

When a warning is issued, Pelicans fans should take cover immediately.  Step away from TVs.  Stay away from large crowds in sports bars.  Even hide under a sturdy table.

This concludes this message from the National Basketball Association

They need to photoshop it with the Sub-Zero slide kick

Game a lot closer than it should be but those second chances are keeping them in the game. I wish we would at least flirt with the idea of giving Kaminski some minutes against bigger frontcourts.

4 turnovers and he's a 0 on the court meanwhile DJM is a +17..

 

That means that DJM did a great job vs the Pelicans 2nd unit.  Trae is doing his job as well.  When he has a high number of turnovers, he needs to offset that with a high number of points and assists.

[Atlantaholic]

What a pass by Trae my lord.

I don't see the point. The offense is doing well, he's just not a big part of it this game. If we've got better advantages elsewhere on the court, I don't think we need to force feed Collins. The coach should have plays designed to get Collins involved, but we haven't done that the entire time JC has been a Hawk.

John you gotta join the FG column.

 

Thank you.
