Are you kidding me Jimmer adds the one thing this team desperately needed last season and even more importantly this season when we lost morrow. And that's a legit three point threat not named Ryan Anderson. When we have players like Reke and AD, who thrive and feast on opposing defenses when they have space, jimmer becomes one of the more valuable bench players. Im not sure of you watched last night's game but did you see what a lineup of Rivers, Jimmer, Babbit, and Anderson did. It was beautiful. Now imagine Tyreke instead of Rivers. How do you stop that?
Also Jimmer brings a huge fan base that are now Pels fans and bigger fan bases means more fan recognition and tv games and as a fan of the pelicans that should be something you want
I don't seem to remember Morrow getting this kinda hate? Jimmer is basically this seasons Morrow imo.
Sorry if someone made those points already, joining the discussion a little late.
Only two guys on here are spitting hate at Jimmer, the rest are just uninformed opinions.
Nothing to see here, move along.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Here's the thing though, it's clear from these preseason games that Jimmer is way better than Gordon. I think Jimmer will start the game at the 2 and Gordon shouldn't come on the floor unless it's to clean up his sweat off the ground. I mean the dude is never healthy it makes sense.
It was freaking hilarious, and pitiful. I was so mad i paid for season tickets to show up at the arena to watch Dickau. There were guys in my pickup games better than Dickau. I mean it was still better than watching the best teams in college basketball but man i felt ripped off every time went to a game. It was down right criminal to charge people to watch that team.
Love the Gaurdians refrence haha

Woah you can tell the future. I mean that's got to be it right. How else would you know what Jimmer is going to be doing next year. Quick who is gunna when the super bowl this year? Does AD win a championship in NOLA? Does Ebola cause the end of humanity?
But seriously though it's called brand recognition. As a fan of the organization you should want as many people as possible to want to watch the Pelicans play. Maybe, just maybe we can turn these Jimmer fans into Pelicans fans. Which means more fans across the United states even the world. This creates demand. And where there is demand there are 30 or so money hungry owners looking to make more money. Which means capitalizing on that demand which means more tv time, press coverage etc.
Jimmer also helps us win, so if you refer back to the point that you refused to address I talked about spacing and how that could help us win games which is the main thing that will get us tv time.
I mean im no business major but im pretty sure that's a rough, incredibly simplistic breakdown of how the economics of basketball work.
The most overused words on Pelicansreport.com. Wrongly, I might add.
ELITE - (often used with a plural verb) the choice or best of anything considered collectively, as of a group or class of persons.
GREAT - notable; remarkable; exceptionally outstanding
These words should not be used lightly
well looks like i was right taking the under on if NOLA NBA would make it 4 weeks.... HE GONE!
I'm definitely rooting for gordon to do well. It's the best chance of not having to see his lazy *** on the court with our jersey after all
