January 7th - New Orleans Pelicans VS Memphis Grizzlies - 18-22

[Pelicanidae]

End of the first, we're up 31-27.

AD has 19/4 and 2 blocks on 90% shooting early. Just unstoppable.

[DaFranchise80]

Okafor with the Euro step in transition. I’m impressed.

AD finally getting that handle to take ppl off the dribble consistently. Thats what seperates him from being a legit top player in the league above the likes of Durant.

does gentry knw how to do rotations or is he just dumb?

Here's what I don't understand.

First quarter: AD gets 19 points on 9/10 shooting.
Second quarter: AD only gets 2 shots.

End of the first half, we're up 53-51.

AD has 23/6, for some reason only getting 4 shots in the second quarter despite his fiery start to the first. There's me thinking you're supposed to feed the hot hand and exploit the gravity it has on the defense rather than just ignoring it, but hey what do I know?

[Pelicanidae]

Great little 9-0 run here, started getting some offense through AD. Jrue and Payton each have 3 steals.

Memphis plays so slow they lull you to sleep.. Gotta keep our pace up and play our game

[Pelicanidae]

AD with the brutal hammer from the Okafor dish!

[Pelicanidae]

FRANK HAS 11, HE'S HOT.

[AusPel]

Frankies shot looking good

[Pelicanidae]

AD just appeared out of nowhere to get that block. Came over for the help out of nowhere at all.

[Pelicanidae]

Won the third quarter by 11 points, only 1 turnover the entire quarter, going into the fourth up by 13. Looking to get a win here.

[Pelicanidae]

AD in that quarter: 8/3/3/1/1

And yet the impact was everywhere. A good quarter but nothing crazy on paper. Shows how misleading a box score can be.

[Pelicanidae]

Off ball movement has been beautiful this second half, against a team which can play defense as well. Say what you want about Memphis, they are a good defensive team.

[AusPel]

Dat Frank dime tho

[Pelicanidae]

I love watching Okafor play. He really isn't the greatest player in the world, and he's not a brilliant defender, we all know that, but he plays really hard. I think he's taken all the years of being benched and traded go to heart, and even though he only plays 15 or so minutes a game right now, he tries to fill them with production.

[bahmamamba]

ahahaha I love how Noahs bs is being called put

[Pelicanidae]

Okafor with the spin move and that touch around the basket!

[Pelicanidae]

Yep.
