    You're right, he didn't play a Frank-Redick-Hart-Moore-Kenrich lineup for 4 and a half minutes during the second quarter, thus meaning only one guy above 6'5 was on the court while the Raptors were playing multiple bigger guys.
    Basketball.

    Kenrich didnt even play in the first half. Favors was on the court.

    If were being honest it's time to sit Redick. He's been useless outside of the occasional 3. His defense and rebounding has hurt the team

    Favors just isn't working out, and Oak isn't a defensive presence at all. Melli is a terrible defender. The problem is coaching, and our bigs aren't that good.

    I don't think we were seeing it because Zion covered for them.

    I'd also start NAW over Ball, and make him earn his starting job back if he can.

    Or tank for wiseman

    Okay. But he's not playing with Simmons and Embiid to cover his mistakes. We're a smaller team. He cannot be on the court.

    Favors has struggled particularly. It is what it is. I think this team is bereft of confidence at this point.

    Agreed, and when Zion gets here do the same. These are the only 5 guys worth building around.
    If you Jimmer it, they will come.

    He will have trade value though and that's on the front office know what players you sign

    He's a good locker room presence. Not a good fit on court. Bad signing giving what we paid.

    That is with 6 games of analytics. We were never gonna be a great 3pt team.

    Gotta feel particularly bad for Ingram.

    He wasn't our worst player tonight (Lonzo, for example, had a worse night, and so did Okafor in many ways) but his stats are going to take a pretty big hit from this.

    27 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal, 1 block doesn't sound too horrible.

    But 10 of 25 shooting (40%) is not good. 3/10 from deep (30%) is not good. Led the team in fouls with 5, was second only to Ball in turnovers with 3, and had a team worse -25 +/-.

    Not a great night in the box score for him.

    I don't disagree with you, I have a bunch of problems with our offensive tendencies.

    But if the question is ''why are we shooting so many threes'', then ''cause we hit a lot of them'' seems to be the answer right now.

    Another 70 games like this, and we'll be picking whichever elite player we want.

    I don't feel bad for him, his stats for the season won't take much of a hit considering how well he's been playing. And I don't think anybody cares about +- when the team is playing like crap. He actually had an okay game.

    I just want to see a Pelicans roster with a good coach. Is that too much to ask for? Every year it’s this player and that player sucks and all this. These losses are on the coach. He is trying to run a scheme that doesn’t fit his personnel. It’s really that simple

    I mean, like I said, he didn't have the worst game on the team. But any game where you shoot 10 for 25 in barely 31 minutes, and 3 of 10 from deep, and almost foul out, and have a less than 1 AST:TO ratio isn't exactly a game I'd describe too positively.

    He looks like he gives more than a damn. That's better than most players on this team.

    What in his scheme isn't working?
