This is disrespectful to CP3 imo he’s done this before especially in closeout games. Just two of many examples belowOriginally Posted by Impose

He didn't really torch anyone specifically. He's good at operating out of picks, when his teammate has created space for him.
I'd be beyond shocked enough to question if I took the red pill.
A message to @B_Ingram13: you are a star young fella. No matter this outcome. You should know this about yourself. As for @Zionwilliamson, know you are holding title-contention for the @PelicansNBA in your hands. You get healthy and ready, skies the limit for this franchise.

I am... agreeing? With SAS?
What?
Basketball.
If im bi im going in the offseason and work really hard on my 3 ball and defense...
One big that i would love to have here is bobby portis
Whose minutes do you give to Portis?
Yea, cause I actually like Nance over Portis. Even though he'd be a solid piece.
Neither of those did he go perfect from the field. His 14-14 is most consecutive shots made in a playoff game in HISTORY. At least since they started keeping the stats in 1997. Try again.
Such a catch 22 w/ Willie, he helped us get to where we are but he also hurt us w/ bad rotations and adjustments. Again, he may need to talk to some other coaches and do alot of homework this offseason to get better.
I agree!! Especially with your third and fourth point.
One thing they can't do is just think they can waltz into next year just off this season's momentum. It doesn't work that way.
Everybody has things they need to improve on, including Willie.
And if the FO thinks they can upgrade any position (yes including Larry Nance) you do it.
And I'm sure he will. This is his FIRST season as a head coach. If anyone had told us in October that we'd start the season 3-16, but we'd make and win the playin, and we'd take the top team in the league to six games, while playing three rookies major minutes, no one would have believed them.
Wow. He finally said something nice about us.
Also notice how the media is turning and most are saying Zion would be a fool to leave this team b/c honestly he would have to start from scratch somewhere else.
Just to state how much trust Willie had in the three rookies, they played 93 of 240 minutes today, and 464 combined minutes for the series. The second most minutes by rookies in the first row was Toronto, with 103.
Can't really agree with you here. Aside from trusting Graham he didn't do much wrong. We hung with the -CLEARLY- best team in the NBA. Go read the Suns' fans comments on other forums about us. They were sweating and did not want to play us and have nothing but respect for the fight this team put up.
Willie gonna keep doing what he does. Get some more growth from Hayes/Murphy.
I know everyone is disappointed in CJ but he was guarded by Bridges most the series who's way longer and got 2nd in DPOY voting, like, give the guy a break.
When it comes to these clowns, including our local bozos who joined in the fray (nola.com in particular), never forget.
Nance definitely stays, zion of course gets his and val... that's the only problem no minutes to really give out anymore...he would be a nice fit though as he can defend rebound and hit the 3 ball.. val in the playoffs can easily get exploited though, lucky we didn't face the mavs grizz warriors who would feast on him
We played an UNDRAFTED rookie 31 minutes in an ELIMINATION game. Just think about that for a moment.
I will also add get another reliable 3pt shooter. Someone we can trust to always make it.
I hope a ping-pong ball bounces our way, first.
Plus, I'm not worried at all about these rookies going forward. They're all gonna work on their games and come back even better.
Jax tho, I'm a bit worried about him. CJ in the playoffs I'm a bit worried about as well. (Gotta figure that out).
Will be interesting to see what griff does in the offseason
We played 6 games. 6 games = 288 total minutes of basketball in this series.
Of those 288 minutes
Trey: 120 minutes
Jose: 117 minutes
Herb: 227 minutes.
All three of those, particularly Herb, are huge minute allocations for rookies. And every one of those minutes was earned. In fact, in the case of Trey and Alvarado, there's a strong argument to be made that they should each have played more. Herb, I'm not sure how you give him more without his legs falling off - even Ingram only played 236 minutes, and he led the team in minutes in this series.
We may not have to worry about CJ in the clutch with Zion and Ingram on the floor. In addition to a solid point guard.
Wonder when we get out first Zion interview heck
