OMG THANKYOU!!! nobody should be forced to watch Toronto's broadcast lol

All that matters is we keep the game close and give ourselves a chance to win in it in the 4th. I don’t care how we look

bledsoe is very impressive so far

Zion should be able to dominate individual matchups, he isn't. 1v1 team chemistry isn't relevant, OG is smothering him..

Make no mistake, Zion is a Defensive Liability

Zion is 20 years old fam... Chill.

Bledsoe looking like out best player out there ��

This has been a great lithium test. We aren't letting games get away while being sloppy.

Beating Raptors is all about weathering the storm.

I found Joel and AD on League Pass :happy2:

********ing Ball... We got a 3 point ball game. Why do garbage like that...

That woman is a horrible ref

These dogs playing hard. SVG philosophy is a great mix.

Things get shakey when Adams gets off the court

Pelicans playing great in the 3rd.

Just goes to show you that if good players at least attempt to play defense, you can win games.

BI just needed to warm up

Look at Lonzo making shots and driving to the hole ��

That was one of the hottest shooting quarters for a team I can remember. Silly.

Did JJ just Harden into that 3?

Zion lost defensively

Come on Lonzo

If the team gets better they are a playoff team.

The radio announcers are particularly funny tonight.

That is definitely the difference.

I'm assuming this is what they refer to as "defense"? Who knew it made that much of a difference?

Steven with the euro!! Favors could never!!

This is boring. Bring back GentryBall.


Kidding of course

Ingram having a Pippen like night.. Love it!!

Put Zion back on restricted minutes :hihi:

Imagine if they hadn't turned the ball over eleventy million times, this game wouldn't be close

Notice who's not in the game late in the 4th?

Holiday?

Ingram is one rebound away from a triple double

Been creeping these forums for years, had to make an account just to say yall killing me with the Zion hate.

Dude is basically a rookie+. This is equivalent to the second half of his rookie season after the injuries and Covid.

Kid is 20 yrs old. Can still do ridiculous stuff. Needs work on D but again, rookie+

jj....

This team can close, unlike last year.

The intelligence level on this team has risen 10 fold with the coaching change. Amazing 3rd quarter.

It's a PeliCAN not a PeliCAN'T

Being a professional gambler. When I drop a unit on Pelicans. It's the right move.

They need to get moving with the vaccines so we can all go to games again.

Gave up only 42 Points in the second half.

If they can hold other teams close to 100 we are going to win a lot of games.

True.

My disappointment is with Ball. He seems like a liability. Maybe we should try the rookie.
