November 7th - New Orleans Pelicans Vs Chicago Bulls - 4-6

I don’t know if anyone else noticed that Wesley Johnson has a tattoo of wings on his back. They kinda look like the Pelicans wings on the court. I guess it is destiny he ended up with the Pelicans!

It's crazy. It's almost like playing playoff quality teams on the road without your superstar looks a lot worse than playing lottery teams at home with your superstar playing.

Tim Frazier is 0 for his last 9, for a total of 0 points in the last three games through 22 minutes.

Frazier and Clark are terrible. They check in and the lead suddenly shrinks.

Miller has his stroke going tonight

Mill3r

AD looked like he took a shot to the face.

Edit: Yep, Randle swung his arm into his face.

AD has the worst luck in the NBA.

#Pelslife

AD laying on the floor like Tyson hit him with a Haymaker LMAO. Gladly he is fine

If that's AD done for the night, he has 30/10/6/1/4 on 60% from the field and 67% from 3.

If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times. The NBA treats AD like a pinball.

Miller time

Niko making the pass to Manute Bol there.

Absolute turnover machines

This 4th quarter is getting sloppy.

Niko's shot has vanished recently. He's 1-for-7 from three tonight, and wasn't he something like 3-for-10 last game?

Any chance of jumping to try and block Miller? Jesus Christ he wasn't doing anything but shooting

Come on guys. Two consecutive buckets at some point, PLEASE.

WEEEESLEEEEEY

Yes Wes!

I've never seen AD so happy with a SF before...

We haven't had a proper one since AD has been here

Ugly game and terrible start of the 4 quarter. We need this W. Nothing is comming easy...

Before this season, AD's career high in assists was 7.

He's had at least 7 assists in three games this season so far.

Why not just buy out solo and take the hit this season and sign the best min player available at the 1/2? Or trade him for anyone else... Anyone with an expiring that is.

Strung a couple of plays together there to get it back to double digits on the lead. Good to see.

Joel roasting Jimmy Butler for precautionary rest.

End of the game. WE WIN. 105-95

LOSS STREAK, OVER.

AD had 32/15/7/1/4 on 13/24.
Jrue had 17/10/9/2/2
Niko had 9/15/1
Randle had 12/5/5

Wesley Johnson had 12/4/3. A good SF. Woah. Miller had 11 too. 20+ from the SF position this game? Insane.

Glad to break the streak and get a win. Payton coming back next game. Let’s get a win streak going again!

Can the Grizz even keep this up?

Apart from Golden State, I see the West as pretty wide open from 2-8

Good win. Streak is over. Only got scary when people who won't play as much when Payton is back were on the court.

Saturday night we'll be back even.

Gonna make things a little awkward when we trade for him.

As he should. Butler is just proving how much of a prima donna he is.

I am sure he will eventually be traded.

Yeah. I think we make a trade but I think it's closer to the deadline.

They should bench him like Hill, and give his minutes to Frank.. Frank is alot better out there than what Frazier has looked like

Their defense is legit. But they can't score for toffee. Bad offensive rating, slow pace, bad offensive rebounding, not a particular strong assists team. They don't have a true lead guard at all, neither Kyrie nor Smart is a real orchestrator. Tatum and Brown are good players off the dribble and they can get their own but neither of them can playmake. Their best passer is Al Horford, and he's good but he can't be your only real playmaker.

You can't imagine Kyrie will average less than 20ppg all season, so he'll probably start scoring more later and the offense will improve as the team adjusts, but right now it's their defense carrying them. If you can score on them, they can't push back.
