CP3 in this post-game
''Man, you have no clue how emotional every game here has been. Willie being my brother, someone I talk to about everything, seeing his son sitting on the baseline. It's a good win for us. There's a reason he's the coach here. There hasn't been this much energy here for a long time.''
''This city raised me, man.'' Gives praise to a family he knows in New Orleans who. Dapping up Pelicans mid-interview.
''It's emotional, this is home for me. I root for this team when I'm not playing against them.''
Basketball.
I’m a grown a** man. I just cried like a hungry infant. To see the emotion from Willie because he knows they got screwed is hard to see.
CJ is a top tier 3 point shooter. He just didnt show it this seriesOriginally Posted by AUSSIE_PELICAN
He would fit well with zion in street clothes... very good player but injury prone

Man. That was sad. We fought. But Chris Paul did not miss.
We need a starting pg Ingram at the two her at the 3 Zion at the 4 Jonas at the 5 cj playing all the minutes we tried to give to graham and be our 6th man manu ginobili style; I’m disappointed truly believed the whole series we could take them
Those tears were from playing graham
Mr p3rkins coming on tv saying ingram is the best player in this series fired up Paul im sure
Twitter on the Pelicans
What a season. ❤️

Couldn't be higher on the Raptors' and Pelicans' futures, man. They showed so much in these playoffs

Whom will throw my phone in a lake before I can bet on the Pelicans winning the 2023 title?

The officiating was horrendous. All things considered they are still the better team, but I hate how the officials rub our noses in the dirt and make it even more challenging to take an already difficult series. Just leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
I just didn't factor in CJ being as bad as he was. I mean 4 games and he was pretty bad.
Still like the guy but my goodness.
Ingram just needs to keep doing his thing we will have a well balanced team if Zion and incoming pick get with the program
If you'd described this series, and the way this team played, to me before it started and asked if I'd be happy with that. The answer is yes.
Proud of the team. And I think the experience the got from this series will be immensely useful moving forward.
Phoenix played damn near perfect basketball and we almost beat them.
Took a once in a lifetime game from CP3 to stop this going to game 7.
maybe with Zion back in the point forward role it will be a better fit for CJ and Ingram as the backcourt. I love his game but agree CJ is not ideal for facilitating the offense. I like Alvarado as the 6th man
The hope for cj would be he could settle in as a number 3
Jokes aside, really proud of this team! This experience will be a huge boost for our future!
That would be awesome but I think he maybe a weak link on defense and if Zion don’t improve that won’t be good on that side
yeah this result was well above expectations, huge performance by the pels with massive minutes going to rookies too. from where this season started to where it ended, massive turn around and hats off to the team.
I don’t think they are. All of the Pels losses came from the refs taking the Pelicans momentum. It happened in this game 3 times alone. I’m not a homer at all when it comes to talent, but the Pels are better than the Suns. We will see that next year
And the draft is in less than 2 months!!!
Yeah, Willie has to stop stuff like this. Playing Jax was too much and we lost that lead, then bringing in Graham too much just like earlier we lost alot of games b/c he had to play Temple. Somebody (maybe Monty) has to talk to him about not doing this. Going w/the hot hand and not worrying about playing your veteran guys. Makes no sense. He is a rookie coach so he will fix this. (prayers hands up). Lol.
He isn't in the playoffs.
Teams with length kill him every time.
Sure when he has the space, playing with Zion he will be better, but he had open 3's he should have knocked down this series.
Anyway, i'm not knocking him, he is great for this team.
Yeah CJ was very poor. It’s not a shock as Portland usually went out with a whimper every time they made playoffs despite getting good seeds here and there. Mentality changes once you hit the postseason
