NBA Season 2016-2017

Just tuned into this toronto/NOLA game with 6 mins to play. Havent seen AD get a touch on offense in 3 minutes of action. This is why the pelicans are bad

NOP guards are not good. Don't get me started on Galloway in particular.

Carmelo Anthony has 26 points and 5 rebounds on 10-17 shooting (pretty good).

Knicks down 20 to the Wizards though lol.

Wow Phil Jackson has really screwed up with this team. Yeah Melo is no superstar but without him the Knicks are probably close to as bad as Brooklyn..

47 seconds left. Raptors, Pelicans tied 96-96. Need some clutchness AD...

This has been an absolutely whacky end to this Raptors/Pels game lol Terrible execution on both ends lol

[jpotter33]

Did freaking Jrue Holiday just blow like four straight offensive possessions for them without AD even touching the ball??

AD had one touch in the last 6 minutes.

That was probably their best shot to win

TOR probably takes this now in OT...

Don't look now but the Raps are currently losing to the Pelicans at home.

Winning basketball games becomes a helluva lot harder when you're missing your best player.

I know this is subjective but personally I think Lowry's their best player. I'd label Derozan as their best scorer.

Nonetheless, what you say is very true. As Chambers was saying, I wish Celtics fans would get that.

It's not even subjective. Lowry is much better. But they're missing their second-best player, and it's hard to win without your second-best player.

I like Lowry more too  and thought he is at least as good as DeRozan. But I felt ppl would think I am clueless if I said so lol

Well at least the Pels and Raptors are going into OT.  Hell let it go into 3 OTs.  Wear the Raps down so that they're ragged tomorrow when they play us.  I want that win.

We all dream of Boogie, but the guy I really want is AD.  I'd trade all the picks for him.

Yab+Zizic+2017 Brooklyn, 2018 Brooklyn, 2019 Memphis, 2019 Clippers, 2020 Celtics.  Amir and Zeller for salaries.  Danny needs to push in all the chips.

Yeah, I've got a feeling tomorrow night is going to be some big fun.

On a positive note, Toronto gets to play at least one overtime on the first night of a back to back, with the second night in Boston. So there's that. Thanks, Jrue Holiday

Dude, AD is off. He's 2-15 and been brutal for the few minutes I've watched. He probably shouldn't be touching it at this point. On a related note, Toronto heading to OT the night before our key matchup is awesome.

Whoa... easy there. And I think Pelicans would still want someone good back, like Bradley or Smart or Brown. And possibly Rozier. I think NOP view him as untouchable and they plan to build a team around him (he still has 4 years left in contract).

I've had the game on in the background while doing some work, and I only started really paying attention in the last six minutes or so. So my bad. All I saw was Jrue miss on like four straight possessions down the stretch.
