Thunder vs Pelicans : Game 4 Playoffs! GAMEDAY THREAD!

[pr1840]

Playoffs always expose CJ’s lack of athleticism. Naji and Jonas came to play though.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Watching Pelicans games makes me so angry.

[AD Zen Master]

It looks like the NBA wants this series to end.

Do you blame them?

[Nichols]

I'd give Marshal 2 minutes. He's a lil gassed.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Well no more Jonas this game.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

I’m a little surprised Dyson has gotten no run in this series. I get his lack of shooting, but no one else is shooting worth a crap either. At least he can be disruptive defensively.

It takes Willie Green an eternity to play him in the regular season, and he still gets frozen out for weeks at a time. Is anyone surprised?

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Trey’s been a little bit disappointing in this series as well.

[Nichols]

In two minutes hopefully Marshal and JV gets back in.

[Nichols]

Wow!!! JV is actually back in. lol

[Freyfamilyreuni]

This feels over. I actually feel a bit for Brandon. I’ve been his harshest critic, but it’s a bit tough coming back from an ugly looking injury, and then losing Zion, and having to try and get your rhythm back against a really, really good defensive team.

Trey’s been a little bit disappointing in this series as well.

Eh, he's had problems with shooting but he's still shot at least 40% from 3 in two of the games, he's rebounding, and he's recorded at least 3 stocks in 3 different games, so I'm a little hesitant to get too harsh on him.

Taking good shots, the ball just isn't going in for the most part.

Certainly not a great series from him, but he hasn't been even top 3 of our biggest problems.

You are a very empathetic person. More than me.

More than me, too.

Imagine if we had taken Jalen Williams instead of Dyson Daniels. He was there for the taking. My god.

That guy looks legit. He's got it on both ends of the floor.

That's valid.. but he should at least divert his energy into rebounding, assisting, and playing defense if he's struggling to get a rhythm scoring. He's not doing that consistently.

[Mount_Zion]

Brandon Ingram 1-11

[Pelicanidae]

Brandon Ingram 1-11

Hey, put some respect on his name.

He's 2/12.

[ragincaucasian]

Welp, that's all folks!

[ragincaucasian]

BI can go to the Suns. He and Beal deserve each other

[Mount_Zion]

Hey, put some respect on his name.

He's 2/12.

Ok he's improving

[Freyfamilyreuni]

OKC is just a much, much better team. Even with Zion, at most we might have picked up one or two games. They’re deep, really good perimeter defenders, a lot of three point shooters, with a guy who can make his own shot and seems to have figured out how to make the refs blow the whistle.

[Pelicanidae]

It's okay he's 2/13 now, it's getting worse again.

This is true. Which is why I said that losing the series isn't the problem for me. Obviously winning is better, but I can understand a loss.

It's getting brutally embarrassed for 4 straight games. Blown out twice, including at home.

If we'd done our best, maybe lost in 5 or 6, close series but we just didn't have the juice, that's one thing. This is different.

Because their coach plays rookies all year long. Our coach is mentally impaired.
