December 25th - New Orleans Pelicans @ Miami Heat - 1-0

[REALCHRISM]

You get that wide-open shot from the ball going low to Zion even though it was a missed three by Bledsoe. Bledsoe and Nelli are liabilities.

[hornetzplaya]

Bledsoe is lazy!!

Could be a future trade chip.

[Pelicanidae]

Melli currently providing nothing at all on either end

[hornetzplaya]

Boy the heat are exposing our defensive inexperience

[As I See It]

Again...the first quarter of the season is on BI and SA's shoulders!!

[REALCHRISM]

Yep.

[Pelicanidae]

This is the second game in a row Bledsoe has started with an entire first half full of awful decisions and bad misses.

Will he bounce back in the second half of this one like he did the last one?

[Pelicanidae]

Zion comes out of the restricted area to completely freeze Dragic, and Melli just doesn't feel like rotating to the paint so he doesn't. Dunk.

Sigh.

[REALCHRISM]

So many open 3s.

[Pelicanidae]

That's not a foul?

Okay.

[hornetzplaya]

Boy they just hot af from deep lol

[Pelicanidae]

Miami shooting 66.6% from 3. Jesus.

[sterlr]

Didn't like the body language when we went down by 8. Team needs to develop strong mentally.

[REALCHRISM]

Hart should be starting. Bledsoe is a liability. I don’t get why NAW is not getting any minutes.

[da ThRONe]

We aren't even bothering with defending the 3's today.

[hornetzplaya]

Imma stick with my guns.... Bledsoe and Melli need to used as trade chips for 3 & D type players. Still it's only the second game. But good Lord, what are they offering us?

[Funcrusher]

Hayes/Hart/Melli/Bledsoe playing like absolute trash. Guys are consistently left guarding 2 guys at once because players don't care about rotating

[Pelicanidae]

We aren't even bothering with defending the 3's today.

So many possessions where someone either completely fails to rotate (forcing someone else to scramble), or rotates so late that they may as well not have bothered.

[REALCHRISM]

No, it is not. And when you are dribbling the ball it is traveling.

This game went off the rails the moment Nelli came in. Back-to-back misses and then every play was a contested three.

[sterlr]

Where is the inside game when we're cold from outside?

[hornetzplaya]

WHERE IS NAW?

[REALCHRISM]

I’m so confused by the offensive foul call on JJ.

[Funcrusher]

That's not a foul?

Okay.

Same thing last game. Dude's not getting calls he consistently should get.

[Funcrusher]

jesus christ lonzo

[Pelicanidae]

What a braindead foul.

Tyler Herro coming off a screen, what do you think he's going to do?
