November 1st - New Orleans Pelicans @ Oklahoma City Thunder - 2-1

Missed the beginning. What happened to JV after just two minutes on the court?

I'm really glad I don't spend money to watch this. My YMCA 8-10 year old team legit hits a higher % of 3's than this team.

The problem with a first quarter like that is that even if there's some kind of genius sideline talk before Q2 and the team gets their heads together in the next 30 seconds, the damage is already done. Now you have to come back from a 19 point deficit, which is hard enough to do anyway. You lost yourself the game in the first 10 minutes.

We shot 18% from the floor and 8% from 3 that quarter.

is this team mentally weak?

Yes.

And also injury prone.

And also coached roughly.

And also young.

And also missing key roles on the team that have not been filled in 5 years.

sounds like a recipe for disaster

We are trying to implement a 3pt shooting plan without shooters. Our coach is unable to adapt on the fly so we are screwed. I personally would slow it down to a half court game and have Jonas back Chet down or look for cutters. Defend and rebound or we lose.

Comical

5.6% from 3. 1/18 so far.

I’m just done with Brandon. I’m starting to wonder if he just doesn’t want to play with Zion.

Unfortunate all around at this point!

All I'm gonna say is, Trey wouldn't let this happen.

Oh hey there was a JV play. Hopefully this continues.

We are getting CLOWNED out there. Seriously look like an expansion team.

If you gave me a ball at the 3pt line I guarantee I could do better than that with my eyes CLOSED.

1 for 19 from 3

Our generational player has 5 points.

This has got to be a record

I'm at a loss at this point, never seen a game be over in just the first quarter.

Good d by Herb

Nah, we don't need a true point guard to run this offense. We got this.

Only the likes of Atlanta, Dallas, Indiana, Charlotte, Brooklyn. Boston, Detroit, Golden State, and Denver need point guards. We got this!!!!

So has anyone gotten the Bally app to work?

The last few plays have looked a little better. If they can just get it to around 10, then the second half has it there for them. They just have to play with the effort and not settle.
