Wow! Terry!

We really need to stop this Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline.footing around and put these guys away. This would be absolutely devastating to lose tonight against this team.

Rozier takes it to the basket, finally someone wakes up

I don't buy it. This is just us REALLY playing down to NO, because we look the same with the starters in as with the bench. This particular team has a problem of playing down to competition at times, which might be due to being so good at being the underdog.

EDIT: The refs being so tight and calling everything on both ends doesn't help our running offense, either. We always seem to struggle with a very tight whistle.

Stop taking 3's!!!!

but this is so bad it's hurting my eyes

why cant we beat the Pelicans.. I know we just finished beating the Nets in DC. But we should be able to take care of the Pelicans too.

With IT in, we go up by 10+ When he's out the Pelicans go on huge runs... the reason is that ET is basically a bench version of IT (obviously not as good a player but similar skill set). Smart is as good of a playmaker, but Turner is the only consistent playmaker and scorer we have off the bench... they're lost without him.

I mean there are other factors like AB being completely off and some lazy play, but I bet we'd be by 10 consistently with ET in there even with these factors

Perkins looks like he is in great shape

Ehh, we didn't have IT in when we went on our first half run and pushed the lead up. It was with Rozier, Smart, Crowder, JJ, and KO.

Marcus looks really good running the second unit.

[max215]

Excellent feed by Marcus. He's playing really well.
