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

[Taker597]

Rondo is one of the most overrated players of the last decade. Before that, there's argument, but Rondo is actually a fantastic litmus test for how much you know about basketball.

For example, if you think Rondo is a top 10 passer in NBA history, you don't know what you're talking about and you're easily tricked by box score assist numbers.

Rondo is one of those players that people who don't know anything about basketball like to stan to pretend that they do know what they're talking about, but that actually knowledgeable basketball people have been over for years.

Good thing I was never a Rondo fan. Almost abrasive as The Triple Double Westbrook Era.

I'm going to have a ********ing aneurysm with Frank Jackson on the floor

[HartOfaPelican]

Am I missing something. WHERE IS NAW!?!?

[Eman5805]

I just knew we'd make Bodanovic or whatevewr his name is look like freaking James Harden.

[Pelicanidae]

Jrue and Lonzo go to the bench.

Kings open the lead up again to 8.

[Eman5805]

Every time we get down to 2 points, we urinate it away.

[Funcrusher]

Frank back in the game after they cut it to a three point deficit... no words

[luckyman]

This is game where you strategically play Okafor. But we dont have this level of strategy anywhere on the bench.

[Taker597]

Sac playing like they want it with their best two players almost 30 minutes. We haven't broke 25 minutes.

[AD-AT]

It's one thing to put out a lineup of BI/Frank/Hart/JJ/Jax but then another thing to decide that you aren't going to play through BI on that lineup. He had one touch that entire time on the floor.... fire this $%#%% coach!!!

[HartOfaPelican]

Gentry does no like momentum apparently.

[Nichols]

That was really really dumb Hart.. Never looked up to pass to anyone.

[kinglio21093]

This team isn't winning tonight. They're falling apart.

[Pelicanidae]

Just pathetic. Pathetic stuff.

[TrellNolaFan]

That was really really dumb Hart.. Never looked up to pass to anyone.

I came to grips that this whole team is dumb.

[Taker597]

You let your bench lose the game. It's basically the playoffs. Ain't no reason for this.

[Taker597]

Held on as long as we could

[HartOfaPelican]

Just give the ball to Zion.

[Nichols]

I came to grips that this whole team is dumb.

Not entirely their fault. Notice how smart coach Pop's teams play? Even when they don't have talent, they play intelligently.

[TrellNolaFan]

I wonder how much these refs are getting paid lol. These calls been horrendous!!!

[Taker597]

Kings playing playoff minutes. We still acting like we got 20 games left to turn it around.

[HartOfaPelican]

What do we all expect with Gentry at this point.

[Pelicanidae]

Just an absolute lack of effort. Zero care. Three people looked at that final Cory Joseph shot and all three of them decided not to bother moving towards it.

[neworleanshoo]

Gentry defense is as bad as it gets. just horrible.

[Taker597]

17 Frank Jackson minutes.
