Over under Boogie having 45 tonight?
46pts 14rbs 7 blocks 5 assists
What about J-Smoove? I think he breaks Wilt Chamberlain's record, finally.
Any word on AD playing tonight?
I kinda want AD to play, but this team should easily get a W without them. The supporting cast have to do something besides being awful.
I thought I read yesterday that he was ruled out for this one but is still Day to Day. I can’t find the tweet I saw though so couldn’t verify.
Kushner’s last tweet on it was yesterday and he said AD is questionable.
I'd rather AD not play tonight. It's not worth it for the long haul.
Just please win. Please.
I just love to watch AD play. Every game he makes me question scientific theories
Alvin Gentry says Anthony Davis (left knee/quad) most likely will not play tonight vs. Sacramento

I wonder what starting lineup we go with. Slide Cunningham over to the 4 and start Miller at the 3 or does Josh Smith just slot right into the 4 from the beginning?
The Pels have to win this game, otherwise their season could go up in flames quickly.
We haven't looked as bad as they have. JR Smith, Shumpert, Calderon, Frye, etc, all look awful. Without AD we barely lost to the blazers, with LeBron they clearly lost to the Nets. It wasn't pretty to watch. They were playing better last year when we beat them, and we didn't have AD or Boogie that game. Not saying there's nothing to worry about, who knows when they bounce back, I'm just saying they've done nothing so far this season to have me dreading the match up.
Not sure if Smith is even playing tonight.
This is one of those things where if you're the franchise, standing off objectively with a forever window, you say, A.D. don't play.
However, if you're the franchise aware that you are under the gun and absolutely cannot afford to fall on your face to start the season in the West, you might say, A.D., can you go?
And if you are A.D., and your friend and teammate is returning to his home franchise for his first revenge game, you should be absolutely trying to force your way onto the court.
Alvin Gentry needs AD on the floor. He tells AD take that shot in your knee it will help with the Pain now Get out there for the Team and win one for ME !!
The team likely feels like it can beat SAC with or without AD. Unfortunately, that is not the case. Kings now favored to win tonight at a majority of betting sites.
This game could go 2 ways:
1) It could give the team a ton of confidence going forward with a win even without AD on national TV...or 2) It could be an embarrassing loss on national TV putting the team again in a hole to start the season at 1-4 with a hobbled AD and the Cavs on deck.
Option 1 likely only happens if Jrue remembers how to play this sport. Option 2 likely involves a Buddy Hield revenge game to add insult to injury.
We need a great game from Jrue and Cousins. Nelson needs to play pg most of the time if he can. Shoot 3s!!!

Didn't Buckwheat start the last game day thread and AD got injured and we lost? Who started the LA one? Gotta keep better track of these things fellas. We're not G league fans.
NBA free agent forward Josh Smith tells @TheUndefeated he hopes to get his contract done with Pelicans before tonight’s game at Sacramento.

Alvin Gentry makes it official: Anthony Davis will miss tonight's game against the Kings

Dante Cunningham will move to 4 and Darius Miller will start at the 3

Gentry says he "highly doubts" Josh Smith will play tonight. Still hasn't signed his deal
— Will Guillory (@WillGuillory) October 27, 2017
Boogie will go for 50 but unfortunately the rest of the team will go for 20
Miller might be the worst player in the NBA.
Fox and Buddy will be hard to slow down. Can Jrue Holiday do it?
*Several current Pelican players look at RTB and say "hold my gatorade".
We really should be the New Orleans Hyperboles.
AD's got a nasty black eye
Holiday with a drive & dish :shocked:
Buddy Hield career night on the horizon
Getting killed by Z-Bo in 2017 yikes
Okay so they're just gonna shoot like 70% from three tonight or something?
May want it call a time out soon
