14th November - New Orleans Pelicans VA LA Clippers - 2-8

Love to listen to Chauncey Billups, he knows a lot about NBA basketball in 2019 and the words he says make sense.

It's not even a fact the sun will rise. It would require an astronomically unlikely sequence of events to prevent the sun from rising, but still not a fact. So likely it may as well be? You damn right.

As for the Pelicans, no. I do not need to accept we will never be healthy. I do not need to accept we will never win. You accept whatever you want. Be miserable. I'm enjoying the ride because our organization has never been set up this good as far as I'm concerned.

Let me guess, you're not being a pessimist, you're a realist too, right?



Didn't you see his earlier comment? He clearly doesn't know what facts are.

Get of my D bro lol u always have something to say to me. If I’m a pessimist let me be. I can say what I want so can you. Ok it’s not a fact we are never going to be healthy are win but that has been the result every single year that I can remember. You feel better now that you won a argument of the net?

Good to see Favors involved early.

JRUE JUST DROVE ON PG13 AND LAID IT IN.

Yes! More, please.

Why would Jrue ever pass that when he had the lane completely open?

Jrue drives again, and-1 on Harkless.

He can do this. He just needs to *decide* to do it.

''Jrue's one of the best in the business at getting to the rim...'' yes Chauncey, true.
''And getting fouled.'' - No, Chauncey, Untrue.

I've never seen this many times with players stepping out of bounds. It's the simplest of mistakes.

Love early shot clock off the dribble threes from Moore.

We're gonna need either Frank or NAW to have a big game off the bench.

Hopefully both.

Redick's done it like 5 times this season already. Weird for him to do that so much

Y'all catch Hart video bombing? He's awesome.

Jrue hits the tough contested fallaway after the play breaks down. He's looking good early.

Kenny gets the steal and the 3 pointer in transition

''This is the fastest team in the NBA.''

No we aren't.

Jrue with the putback

He's going to be having a good game tonight lol

Jrue has 9 points on 4/5 shooting tonight so far, in 8 minutes

Didn't say what it was fastest of.....could be "fastest to have the most starters missing a certain number of games" or "fastest to step out if bounds".....lol

I personally thought that was a block, Montrezl had his feet set but it wasn't a head-on collison, it was from kind of an oblique angle.

Not mad if it's called a charge tho

It just boggles me like, does nobody check this stuff? Shouldn't the commentators have like, a basic list of stats and facts on the table in front of them so they don't keep saying nonsense like Jrue being elite at drawing fouls?

Great team D from Redick there, moving in to blow up the backdoor pass. Clips keep possession, but that stopped an easy layup

The defense has looked a lot better since Favors came back.

He needs to stay healthy.

Oof. We've come a long way since then.

Fantastic patience and ball movement there

Kenrich doing Kenrich things. He only has 3 points, but he has 6 rebounds (3 offensive), an assist, 2 steals, and a block already. Just Kenrich things.

A stat boy. They just need a good Tony.

This game is going great. Why are you two triggering my PTSD? Heheh

Exhibit A why judging a player early is unfair and irrational.

JJ Redick. He's not even playing as well as he should yet. He is a 50/40/90 guy. He's been oddly bad at FTs. Bad for him, anyway.

You can be there for 48 minutes, if you're not actually face on to the ball handler, it's not a charge.

Jrue hit him square in the chest. Chauncey agreed

End of the first, only down 1. Second unit hasn't looked good.

Oh well, if Chauncey ''Jrue Holiday is elite at drawing fouls'' Billups says so... :rolleyes::D

This coach is trolling. He put Frank on Paul George to end the quarter.

Hayes just tried to merk someone.

These refs are BS.

These refs are inconsistent af

Jesus, seeing Moore as the lead ballhandler try and go 1v1 against Paul George and settle for a bricked 20 footer is just depressing

Jackson with the horrible foul smh

Another TERRIBLE 2 quarter.

I wonder if Gentry can hear AD.

We have to face the facts.. we are never going to be healthy and never win anything.

Ok hear me out.. Can we just sub out coach in the 2nd and 4th quarter. Possibly for the 3rd as well.

Good joke man

They are really giving PG everything lol

Favors. I knew he could step out and do that. But he literally stepped out.

Finally a nice 11-2 run.

Jrue just taking people off the dribble and driving some more. Good stuff.

Jrue splashes the 3. He has 14: that's this season average
