Nice 13-0 run!
I survived Katrina, but nothing I owned did.
Close the quarter on a 15-0 run. Need everyone to step up tonight. Glad to see Nance back.
We’ve been without at least one of our two best players for 90 percent of this season and we are still just a game behind first place. When you see our bench you understand why.
Kira looks dangerous and confident in the dribble. He and Jonas seem to have a good understanding.
Basically, we're without 5 of our top 7 players. Three starters (Zion, BI, Z), and first two off the bench (Trey and Dyson). And we're up by 22.
Carlisle has used 4 of his timeouts in the first 19:33 of the game.
Could it be that we 're-found' our needed rim runner?
I don’t mind any player with shooting potential taking a shot from 3. Spacing is the most beneficial tool in the league. But Jax should only use it as a last resort. Be comfortable taking the shot when it presents itself, but always look to cut first. Jax looks a completely different player on both ends. Kira’s cameo was good as well
I don't know about "insistent". It's the first trade with them I've ever posted or mentioned. I think the idea is Hield gives us better shooting. If you don't plan on keeping Jaxson, don't believe Kira will develop, and agree Devonte is a negative asset, then you're really looking at a 2 for 2 trade.
pacers do have some shot blockers.. im kinda low key enjoying seeing them block some of our shots smdh lol... now seeing jax counter them and blocking shots himself is making me enjoy this game more...
Gotta say, it says it a lot about this team - a team that some people in the media (not everyone, just to be super clear) was writing off as a fluke after the 4 game skid - that we come out of Christmas without an entire starting line-up worth of players and go against a fully healthy Pacers team, who are a solid team, and are so far clearly in control.
There has never been a Pelicans team, certainly not since the name change, where we've had the depth and roster talent to do that.
We're top five in the league in scoring. I don't think offense is our problem. And that's with a ton of games already missed by Zion and BI.
I guess its just every deal you see involving the Pacers on Twitter includes Turner and Hield together. And most teams don't need both.
I am glad that Willy is getting to the bottom of his rotation and they are getting some run. We are seeing some guys that maybe could have made a difference in other games when we were struggling against size. Also puts guys on the market that maybe we can get value for. Good stuff
We're also in the top half of the league in 3pt%, despite missing Ingram for more than half the season so far, when he's good for 38% from deep in any given year. That's a lot of high end, high volume shooting to go missing and still have us as a good shooting team. This team doesn't need more shooters with any desperation.
Entering the 4th up 28. I'd wonder when it's to empty the bench, but half the bench is starting tonight.
Naji 18 and 5, with 2 assists, in 22 minutes, and 0 PFs.
Our bench is so good. And now it looks like we may have extra pieces
Everyone looked great except one person.
Garrett Temple.
Do you know how bad you have to be to look bad in a game like this?
