Game Thread: Jazz @ Pelicans

well now this is interesting...

Right now, @PelicansNBA don't think Davis injured ankle on specific play. Wear & tear... Flared up during warm ups & got worse during game

edit: this may just be my skepticism talking... but this certainly sounds like a line a team would give when they're saying "we're not going anywhere and we've seen enough from our best player... let's save him for next season"

Any word on how serious it is?

This team is cursed.

eh I'm not worried, no need to overreact to something like this

Evans creating for the easy dunk for Frenchie

and a nice steal by 'Reke

Frenchie taking a charge... like a boss

Was Smoothie King Arena built on an Indian Burial Ground, I've never seen a team lose so many players for long periods of time like this.

Chill guys. It doesn't sound serious. He was a little sore before the game, and he tried to play through it, but it was really stiff. We're just being overcautious because he is our franchise for the next 15 years.

Deep.... Breaths....

does this team and coaching staff know what the term "2-for-1" means?

I hate that AD is out, but... like last game, I wanna see how everyone else steps it up in his absence. These guys need to learn how to play together and not HAVE to lean on AD. Tyreke is the star right now. Let him run things. Let others do their job. Still a good shot at winning this.

considering the Superdome was built on an old cemetery... it's not that far-fetched :hihi:

Tyreke 13 pts 8 asts 3 rebs in the 1st half

Wait... the Superdome was built on a cemetery, no wonder the Saints beat us with their voodoo magic

the only game I'll say the Saints won w/ the help of voodoo magic was the 2000 wild card game against the defending champ Rams

and only b/c the pre-game entertainment was a voodoo priestess doing a prayer to put the spirits at ease

AMINU AAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDDDDD 111111111111111111111111

for the 2nd time this qtr

Evans w/ a double-double 13 pts 10 asts 4 rebs

Tyreke putting on a passing clinic

I would love to have favors or gordon hayward on this team

note to Utah... Frenchie does have a bit of a respectable mid-range jumper

Frenchie w/ 6 pts 7 rebs... think he'll get a double-double tonight

MORROW FOR 3333333333333333333!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The second Steimsma showtime pass of the year.

The best play Steamer will ever make. Ever.

You know, back in NBA 2k11, I was drafted to the NY Nets. as a 6'1 SG, (I didn't know height was a huge deal), I played with Devin Harris as PG, Terrence Williams as SF, Derrick Favors and PF, and Brook Lopez as C. We were unstoppable. Just thought I'd toss that out there.

screen set out of bounds call... don't see that 1 everyday

RIVERS FOR 33333333333333333333!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Babbitt has a jump hook? who knew

I love MyPlayer in 2K, I had a SF lead Memphis to the title and then Chicago signs me as a Free Agent and we go and win 75 games and the title

Why did we stop attacking Burke?

meanwhile in LALALand... the T'Wolves are up 35 on the Lakers early in the 4th

BWAHAHAHAA some tony parker crap there....

Joel Myers on Babbitt's last shot attempt....."it looked good until it left his hand"...

Bron Bron needed only 3 qtrs to get a triple-double in Miami's 32-point win in Detroit tonight

I saw something out of the corner of my eye about Miami and Lebron and triple... I thought it said "Triple Overtime" and I was "Oh Damn!"... then saw it said "Lebron, Triple Double", then immediatly quit caring. I was more impressed with a team taking the Heat to Tripler Overtime than Lebron getting a triple double. Does that even impress people anymore? He's good. Noone is surprised anymore.

it's only odd that he did it in just 3 qtrs


until you look at the opponent

also... the surprising stat of the night... Portland easily handling Chicago in CHI-town... up 17 just about 1:00 left in that game

Had a thought, what do you guys think about bringing in Reggie Evans, dude seems like he could be a good big off the bench

If he could come here for Stiemsma money, sure. Not any more than that, though.

That's what I was thinking as well 2-3 million would be ideal.

Huge 3 by Morrow.

I love how they have a little "It's Miller Time" logo when they show Miller's highlights. That's hilarious.
