January 3rd - New Orleans Pelicans vs Utah Jazz - 13-23

I was at the game, and I like what I'm seeing from the team. Our team discipline has vastly improved in terms of ball movement, defense, and limiting turnovers. I can handle a loss like last night when considering those improvements. Willie is coaching well and the team has bought into what he is selling.

Agreed. I didn't really see anything that concerned me last night, other than Nickeil's continued awful shot selection. Particularly loved Willie fighting for Brandon Ingram by taking that tech.

[13 - 3]

Wayne Gretzky once famously said that "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take"

When you look at it that way, Nickeil rarely misses.

NAW may take some bad shots, but a lot is being asked of him when you consider our lack of scoring punch. His ability to get to the rim is refreshing, and I do believe that his shot selection will improve. He is definitely frustrating during certain stretches, but he'll be a solid rotation player once we have our full roster.

I hope so, but not yet convinced.
