Thursday August 6: Pelicans vs Kings Bubble Matinee(12:30 PM) Gameday Thread

[neworleanshoo]

we're gonna give up 50 in a quarter. stellar.

[DroopyDawg]

How the h3ll do you give up 50 in a quarter?

[Pelicanidae]

Really disgusting defense early on, prompted by giving them so many shots off turnovers as well.

Second quarter has to look very different or else we're just gonna get another Clippers game.

Cannot be down double digits at the half.

[WildlifeAirGrp]

Wow...what a hot mess. Somebody could actually score 200 on us.

[neworleanshoo]

Sure just leave the due who's crushing you ALONE on the arc. Just like Gentry taught ya.

[Pelicanidae]

We shot 73% from the field, 71% from 3, scored 39.
They shot 82% from the field, 87% from 3, scored 49.

Obviously we're down, that sucks, but both teams have been so bad defensively this first quarter.

[Taker597]

Okay... 49 point QTR and 19 point by Bog in a qtr has to be our new franchise worst record of the week, right?

[Taker597]

Considering that we are only down 10 points. I know this is a crazy game

[AusPel]

JJs ability to hit off balance/leaning threes so consistently.. Theres no one else like him

[Nola3]

Honestly shocked Bogdanovic missed that half court shot

[Pelicanidae]

49 points in the quarter is a new Pelicans record for most points given up in a quarter

[Pelicanidae]

And they get the roll

[Taker597]

This is just bad. Feels like King just caught fire and our passive defense ain't doing anything to cool them off.

[Pelicanidae]

Frank slips in transition. Turnover.

That's yet another slip on these floors.

[Taker597]

It be nice if can capitalize on steals more than 1/3rd of the time.

[Pelicanidae]

Big flop from Giles and now he's jawing about it lol

[HartOfaPelican]

Wow. The refs actually get a memorial call right.

[Pelicanidae]

We're only down 9 with 9 left in the quarter. Could easily get this down to a one possession game by the half, and then suddenly things are winnable.

Just need to actually defend.

[Taker597]

Play Frank Jackson in an important game, bruhhh. This is the game where players need to start cracking 35+ minutes.

I guess it's better than Moore, I suppose

I'd play NAW tbh. Jackson offers less than 0

I'm losing my mind with him being in the game this early for this long

You'll see him later, we've only played 10 guys so far. Number 11 waiting in the wings.

Frank Jackson has played more minutes than Josh Hart tonight so far.

[Taker597]

Yeah, I agree. King already got 5 players with double digit miniutes. Atleast one team is playing like their season is on the line.

[Eman5805]

Zion and Ingram need to touch the ball every position...

Also Melli doesn't have freaking shot.
