April 14th - New Orleans Pelicans VS New York Knicks - 25-29

Impressive, but it was still a fastbreak. Set half court defenses are another animal entirely

He's done it on those too this season.

Honestly, I'm not rejecting the idea that defenses will adjust more in playoff settings, and that will make it more difficult for Zion then, but anyone who just waves their hand at it and says ''Oh well, teams will just start building a wall!'' is admitting they flat out haven't watched the games. Teams have been building walls against Zion twice a week since he entered the NBA and it hasn't worked yet. It's just not as simple as that.

Naji from 3!

What’s the point of making these coaches wear mask if they’re just going to leave it hanging under their chins the entire game?

[Pelicanidae]

That is Zion's first FT this game lmao

[Freyfamilyreuni]

BI’s shooting is impressive this game.

You can’t build a wall to stop that

[Pelicanidae]

You can’t build a wall to stop that

Knicks: ''We're going to build a wall.''
Zion *thinking of the Jazz*: ''Better teams than you have tried.''

Marshall’s an NBA player.

Marshall’s an NBA player.

I hope we have a sort of plan to keep him on, preferably on the cheap. If this is real and not just a small sample madness, he's a legit useful rotation player who can probably be brought back for very little cost, and if it's cheap then even if it does end up being an outlier sample it's not like it would cost us much.

I do like the effort Bled has shown in the past few weeks. We don’t need him to be an all star. We just need him to honor that contract. I am never going to fault a guy for giving his all on the court.

[Taker597]

Payton got 11 points man... I swear if he scores 20 points. That's worse Fox just by principle of letting Payton scoring any points.

[Pelicanidae]

Zion's career high assists is 8.

He has 7 with 4 minutes left in the 3rd.

[Taker597]

I like having real NBA caliber depth.

[JJackisangry]

The thing I like about Naji is how comfortable and competent he looks offensively combined with the effort he shows defensively. You can keep guys like that on the floor at the end of games which is huge. It’s what kind of turns me off about Hart at times. He has his moments offensively, but Naji looks infinitely more comfortable.

[Taker597]

Zion and Ingram with 12 assist. Star players gets their role players involved

[JJackisangry]

Naji is also rapid yeesh

[Freyfamilyreuni]

I think Naji should have shot that last one.

[JJackisangry]

I’ll say the same thing to Jax that I say about Steven- you have to be ready for that pass man.

Rose always looks like the old Derrick Rose when he plays us.

[Taker597]

Bleh... Can't seem to finish any QTR tonight in the +

[As I See It]

Marshall’s an NBA player.

...and a RFA.

[6warddude]

first team to 120 win...

[Taker597]

Feels like a 30-13 kind of QTR... Ugh...

[ragincaucasian]

Naji gives the most damns on this team. That's kind of sad.
