January 23rd - New Orleans Pelicans @ Minnesota Timberwolves - 5-9

Reid is murdering Steven tonight

Pathetic

Can we get AD to say “These turnovers are uncharacteristic of veterans” again?

Adams is gassed

Funny story. They want it more.

More Kira less Lonzo... he is absolute garbage right now

When the commentators start mentioning the poor body language, you know it’s over.

Pelicans motto:

“The good ole Pelicans, make the worst teams in the league look good”

Bench starter. No excuse to get out worked.

This team is rubbing off on Adams. SMH

Yep. We need a drastic change and fast. The lethargy is contagious. Even JJ caught it

The veterans are the Achilles heel of this team.

We suck

I genuinely feel sorry for Zion and BI. Hell, add Nickeil and Kira to that list.

just tank this is pathetic

I knew this road trip would be brutal as soon as I saw it.

It's depressing.

Honestly wish Jrue was still here. So badly lmao

Lonzo and JJ for Rubio and Culver

After a bounce back last game, Ingram is 0/4 from 3.

Lonzo is a characteristic 1/5.

The team overall is 5/18 (29.4%)

Redick is 0/3.

This is classic Pelicans right now.

Stan needs to take notes from Antonio Daniels..Stan should have never came back to coaching..the game has outgrown him and this old school bs..

No, because they don't want to.

every dam play someone is open..stupid rotations no IQ on defense

At this point, I just want to blow the team up and keep the main young guys being Zion, BI, NAW, Hayes and Kira. I'd rather see young D League level guys who give effort and want to be here play.

Jrue wasn’t perfect by any means, but he sure as hell wouldn’t stand for the way this BledZo backcourt is running the game. He would take the reigns for better or worse

The ugliest clank I ever heard man...

For real. Remember when AD went baby-mode and everyone on the board was like ''ah well, time to lose everything'' but then Jrue just held everything together and even though we lost a lot, the team was playing hard and going for it every night. Jrue leading the way. Even last year when we were losing a ton, you could always trust Jrue to put in effort on D and drive (what happened when he got there was a different issue, and everyone and their mother complained about turnovers, but he still did it).

This team has no guard like that. At least, not in the rotation [play Kira]

How can these guys not make any 3's consistently?

PLAY KIRA. PLAY KIRA. PLAY KIRA.

Every game Zo/Bled doesn't get benched is an indictment on Stan

Look at the pressure Nickeil is putting on their ballhandler. Compare that to Ball and Bledsoe giving up free drives. Says it all. The effort just isn’t there from our starting backcourt.

Ingram hasn't looked good in 3rd and 4th quarters as of late.. He needs to fix that.

I could only imagine if this team had KAT and DLo playing. We would be down 30. This team is atrocious

I'm convinced that this team does not practice or watch any film..just go straight to games and warmup.

Im not sure Lonzo gets more than 9 mil this year. He's a bust, through and through

Where you at Griffin... Glad, he didn't decide to do another media tour like he did last year and go into hiding from his ivory tower when we was 6-26....

I’ve always heard that Bled is considered a bit of a negative Nancy, and that wouldn’t surprise me in the least. Jrue was a good presence in the locker room for sure

lol again jj is in no sight of Kira lmao we are tanking

What's that?

Mr ''I Don't Want To Be Here'' is a bit of a sulker?

Shocked.

This is probably a game Melli should play...but he won't.

jj cant defend anybody and now cant even shoot why is he even in the nba

This may be a low point.

Sigh

That is the worst type of presence to have amongst young players. It rubs off on everyone. We definitely need to avoid these guys in the future

And I love JJ. But why isn’t Kira playing in his stead? JJ just hasn’t earned any minutes. Like at all

Bright note: Like the general level of defensive intensity Zion is playing with tonite. Looks like a fire got lit under him

The annoying thing is that we're still only down single digits.

With our talent and their talent, if we played one really strong quarter (of the kind we played early season against, say, Toronto or Miami) we could still win this. But the team just doesn't look like they have that in them right now. No real will.

Frankly, JJ's just about done.

Oh for sure. His efficiency hasn't been where it normally is but he's clearly the guy (at least among the big minute guys) who cares most. He has 9 rebounds, for example: nobody else has more than 5.

That 3rd quarter was probably the ugliest basketball ive seen in sometime.
