If roberts,henry,mason jr or thomas are on the pelicans next year I swear I will boycott this team.

I agree... I'm already sick of watching these 4 players play after only 15 games....

Alonzo Morning was on Fox Sports radio 2 days ago and said the same thing. Coach K also said it on First Take.

Rivers has no business being in the NBA .. His body isn't ready , his skills aren't developed , & his basketball IQ is low . I understand its hard turning down the NBA , but he will be out the league after his rookie contract is up if he doesn't drastically improve . I have seen no flashes of NBA ability from the kid . There's not one thing he does well

[RUFshreve]

Thomas plays hard and is not bad.

You can play as hard as you want, that doesn't mean you have NBA talent.

[WhoDatPelican]

Who is this? Never seen this chick in my life

[Ryno_33 NOLA]

excuse me? plays hard? yes...not bad? me thinks not

At this stage, I'd still rather him on my basketball team than Rivers, Roberts, Mason or Henry

[Topdawg26]

This is gotta be a first that both first and second string SG's scored only 1 pt in a game combined!

[Ryno_33 NOLA]

@#$% im sick of that xmas ad!

AMEN BROTHER!

[FlyGirl]

Dang. Last I looked the Hornets were down 8. How the heck did they get down 17? Uggh.

[Alg_Hornet]

We are getting no production from the shooting guard & small forward positions

3rd quarter...where the magic happens

[WhoDatPelican]

If he has that much wrong with him then staying in college wouldn't have helped.

[kclaboy504]

i hate the way mike dantoni just smirks..i would love to hit him square in the jaw 1 time and fix that smirk

[Make It Rain]

Is it annoying to anyone else that our best player touches the ball the least

[Ryno_33 NOLA]

thats not saying much lol

Wasn't meant to be. Outside of our first 5 (Vasquez, Anderson, Gordon, Davis and Lopez), this team could be mistaken for d-leaguers

[kclaboy504]

lopez u can dunk!!!!!!!!!!

[RaisingTheBar]

OK dleague for rivers, I'm on board.

nah i know man...i wasnt saying it that way...just meaning that thomas ranks right there with that list of guys thats all

Don't even get me started. Apparently its better for roberts to hold it for 23 seconds thanb to let Anderson create, which Ryno is very adept at doing

[UptownFuz504]

I disagree. College is where they teach the game. I think it could have helped him tremendously. Especially learning from Coach K.

Far better for development than college.
