Game Thread Pelicans vs Mavs 11/1/14

Does AD have two fouls or something?

Nice Evans driving and dishing to Asik. And Pelicans create a turnover.

Man, Mavs are real good this year.

Why are we going back to this terrible system?

the games too fast for my internetzzzz ;0

And AD hits them both.

Gordon really sucks

I'm not at home so I'm going to need a recap of the game after!

AD just set a great pick on Holiday there.

I HATE HEDGING!

AD and Asik need time. They're literally running into each other out there.

AD needs to add the spin move to his repertoire. But one step at a time.

Damn. Had Evans put that one in, he'd be on fire NBA Jam style.

I really hate Reke's game

Pelicans looking better on offense because they're running the floor.

Jrue holiday has lost his shooting touch..

I honestly think a lot of it is he has no defined role right now. Just like Evans last year, Monty doesn't know what to do with him.

I think he needs to play the spot up role at 3 to start, get some set plays for him to get some open looks, then stay out with the second unit and become the primary ball handler for a few minutes. Maybe have him play the entire first quarter or something.

Evans took a pull up 3, and yes, he missed. But at least he hit the one before halftime.

He has played like an idiot today. Taking 3's and long 2's at the beginning of the shot clock. Not looking for open shooters.

Yeah, he sucks? Give him more minutes! Awesome idea dude.

Can't believe AD missed two close shots. Da well. We got a foul out of it.

Man DAvis has struggled with put-backs these first two games.

I've said this since game one. Eric needs the ball and this offense just leaves him on the wing. If the object was for him to opt out, this is not going to get it done

Lol I can't believe AD missed that putback but at least he's getting amped off his rebounding. We're still in this. Defense has improved.

He has only taken 8 shots also has 6 rbs and 6 assists.
