Pels vs Boats

[N.O.Bronco]

Jesus... Mind blown. I never realised that either

Them, along with the Lakers, are two of those teams where I would always look sideways at friends from out west when they put their nose up at the announced Pelicans name.

Like you all have two teams, one named after an extinct sailing ship and one for lakes in Minnesota. Lets slow down on the name snobbery and condescension.

The only people who mock the pelicans name are people who don't know anything about pelicans. That's fine, ignorance can't be a crime

But I get your sarcasm

It's illegal to have general ignorance? Where?

Ignorance is not a defense fam

[UNO Gracias]

Forget what y'all taking about..... Nate Robinson is commentating the Rockets thunder game. When did this happen? ������

I Heard that they are paying him in baloney sandwiches (without the cheese).

I saw Caron Butler commentating the West Coast Conference tourney. Wild.

That is true. I didn't clock that, my brain was stuck in "general ignorance in any given circumstance" mode.

This thread is basically a testament to me realising stuff later than I should and looking like a bit of a wally

I hate to speak too soon, but OKC and Denver on their way to losses tonight

Thunder are done, Denver eh. I said the same thing this time of the game last night with Portland and the Lakers and Lillard decided to go crazy and reel off 4 threes in a row to bury the Lakers after being down 10 with 7 minutes left in the fourth.

Yeah I've given up willing Portland to lose. Lillard is too clutch

[N.O.Bronco]

On the plus side, Yogi Ferrell is the one doing the Lillard impression this game.

6-6 from three and just made another to put the Nuggets back up by 10.

Good work Dallas

[PelsFan2313]

Safe to say Dallas has it in the bag now.

[Pelicanidae]

We're starting off well against LAC

[jprdbulldog20]

[PelsFan2313]

Incredible start.

I've been watching the NBA pretty much my entire over 30 year life and this is the first time I realized the Clippers are named after boats.

Clipper ships man... Old strategy games taught me something lol

[Tim Floyd]

Is... is this team actually fun to watch again? Haven't seen a game since December but that run was incredible. Jrue looks like he's playing his best ball since he got to New Orleans.

Yep. We've been fun for a while to be honest.

What were ya thinking all this time? Named after coupon clipping? Nailclippers?


Back in the early 80s they had a logo that I think was supposed to be sails...maybe in front of a sun?

I hope Austin rivers gets kidney stones

That pissed me off

Wasn't thinking at all. There's a bunch of NBA teams with nonsensical names, doesn't interest me to contemplate it much.
