    The Build Up to Thursday Home Opener Game Three Thread

    I am very jealous of people who live in NOLA and/or don't have six kids, right now. I would want to go to both games do bad.

    What's up? Doing anything different for the game? I'm hyped.
    BI, Zion, and CJ had a net rating of +3 when on the court together. BI and Zion had a +13.4, BI and CJ had a +13.2, Zion and CJ was just +5.4.

    BI and Zion worked. BI and CJ worked. It was CJ and Zion and all three together that didn't work.

    Not doing anything different, except being louder than usual!

    Yeah, y'all can have the game day thread because I don't do the texting crap at the game because I like to focus on everything going on at the game......I just hope the team show up in the first home game and don't take their foot off of Portland neck....

    Did Pels really have a better road than home record? Who’s nervous about a home game?

    No. Their road record and home record were identical in the regular season.

    Though usually you expect the home record to be better.

    Tickets are printed, truck gassed up, wardrobe ready to go.....Just have to manage to get through a 2/3rds day of work somehow.

    Never thought I would be gearing up for this game with the Pels up 2-0 in the series and looking to close it out at home.

    We will be doing our best to make this the best home crowd AD has ever experienced as Pelican. These are the types of moments that could grow the fanbase exponentially. There is a very 2006 Saints vibe to this run, New Orleans and Baton Rouge just seem electric about the Pels right now.

    Great to hear Bronco. The way that Jrue has blown up around the world in the space of 2 games is unimaginable

    We going to the WCF, you heard it here first

    I'm most stoked about this team finally igniting a fan base. We have all the ingredients to be the new "merican team". The underdogs who shouldn't be here. That NOLA swag. And we put the Blazers in their place two more nights and then we get to go up against Merica's most hated team.

    Going against GSW next series, we would temporarily be the playoff fan favorite. Knock GSW out and the bandwagon will be bursting.

    Honestly, for whatever reason, we do seem to be universally loved right now. People I know that are fans from all around the league seem to be pulling for the Pels. I look across NBA message boards and it's the same thing.

    I think it helps that there really is no one on our team you want to root against. We don't have a Draymond nut kicking people, or a Harden cheesing the game with annoying fouls, or a CP3 cheapshotting players and whining, or people tired of the LeBron narrative.

    We have a humble superstar big man that everyone loves to watch, a stoic grit and grind guard, playoff Rondo, Threekola, a bunch of feel good underdog role players, an underdog coach with a great sense of humor, and collective sympathy toward a big man that was having an MVP type season unfortunately cut short. All culminating in one of the biggest surprise runs of the post all-star season.

    Make sure y’all blow the roof off of that place. I’ll be watching in the mancave with my red AD shirt on. Geaux Pels!!!
