Game Day Thread! Pelicans vs Grizzlies 3/07/15

geaux pels

AD gets us on the board 1st

Z-Bo called for fouling AD w/ the Grizz on O :hihi:

GORDON FOR 3333333333333333333333!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

way too much cheering for Memphis baskets

DAM EVANS

I'm going to make a prediction, we will take out Asik, and we will make a run. He is absolutely atrocious.

Wow, this one already getting out of hand.

we are atrocious

2 possessions... 2 sweet passes... 1 by EG the other by Q-Pon

Q-Pon says get out of here

Conley poked AD in the eye

QPON! denies dem sucka's! WEAK STUFF HAHA

EVANS FOR 3333333333333333333333333!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

they are running us off the court

and people say this team is good and tell me off for being angry.. lmfao

At least we don't look like a bunch of pansies now. That last TO by Monty seems to have awaken us.

When's Jrue returning?

AD BLOCK

BREAKING NEWS: Cunningham hit a jumper

SO SICK OF THE TURNOVERS!!!!!

another sub-20 point quarter

9 turnovers in 1 quarter is just abysmal

Anthony Davis with the chasedown block on Zach Randolph. https://t.co/wJ8Pe5uTNc

edit: would like to give Cole part of that block b/c he slowed up Z-Bo enough to allow AD to get it

We should win. Bad first quarter but Ajinca is going to help us!!!

People wanted more ball movement. This is sometimes the result when you have low IQ guards.

Monty got blasted for his conservative offense, but maybe he knows this roster isn't capable of moving the ball around w/o turning it over at a high rate.

But.... but our ball movement seem fine when we had the 5 game winning streak. What was the excuse then? Its not like we are not capable.

They have to learn. Gordon, Jrue, and Reke make excellent passes and operate in a high motion offense. What the hell. We need better passers.

The best shooter we have on the court is Babbitt . The flow never goes to him and no touches. Sick.

TAKE BABBITT OUT!!!

COLE ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDD 111111111111111111111111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well this is just pathetic.

We need to play mostly:
Cole, Gordon, Reke, AD, Cunningham.

I think some people overromantcize that stretch.

We won close games that could have gone either way against bad teams. We didn't play THAT well. There were some terrible turnovers there too.

Go back and really watch those games. We played hard. We didn't really play well. Cole took some of the same terrible shots he is missing now, for instance. He just made them then.

We need to get real about that stretch. We weren't playing good basketball IMO

how was Gasol not called hitting Asik in the head? should've been an and-1 for Omer

AD ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDD 111111111111111111111111!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

This is a game where Anderson would make a difference

the Grizzlies are playing great defense...so much for them having tired legs

ISO, iso, iso, miss fast break score. ISO iso ISO miss fast break score.

Memphis is loaded with stars and veteran leadership.

I hate when reke goes reke, but I almost want him to the way they are manhandling us.

I'm here now. Time to turn this game around.

Bad Reke is really bad

They're defending AD very well

there it is, go reke

Eman comes into the room... Pels go from down 18 to down 11

come in more often Eman

Guys, I think we are possibly playing the future NBA 2015 Champions.

Memphis has flawless defense

The biggest problem with Asik is that the nature of the offense we run puts him in a LOT of positions where he has to not be...Asik. If he were Gasol, either one, Greg Monroe, or even Enes Kanter, we'd look so much better on offense.

Worse on defense, probably.


Be a great year to have a high draft pick. A guy like Karl-Anthony Towns would be much better getting those drive and dish, PnR situations.

WTF Reke?????

he's in complete out of control mode tonight

2ce he's gone up in the air not knowing exactly what he was going to do and it led to turnovers
