Western Playoffs Round 2 - New Orleans Pelicans VS Golden State Warriors - Game Four

[AusPel]

Nothing infuriates me more than Davis jacking random threes. Or all threes in general

Peace I'm out

[Alg_Hornet]

The warriors are not playing that great .. it’s just that we quit during the 3rd Quarter .

I always hated when he does that unless we are up 10+ since he misses so often.

[Pelicanidae]

Yeah, this is brutal. They're playing reckless pick-up style basketball right now. They're playing scared. It's pathetic.

It's crazy. Yes, the Warriors have been making shots that you never expect them to make. Yes, they're passing the ball excellently. Yes, they're executing well on defense. Yes, all of that is true.

That's no excuse for why we're settling, throwing the ball away, paying no attention on defense, and looking like we'd rather be literally anywhere else. That's not how you play at home in the playoffs if you want to win.

[AD-AT]

I am well and truly disgusted right now. This is pathetic effort. Anthony Davis gave up at halftime and the rest of the team feed off of that.

This feels like game 4 of the first series against GS 3 years ago.

[Pelicanidae]

Well, the good news is that there's a Game 5.

[GuardianAngel25]

I said before the series Durant would be the X Factor and give us problems. We have no answer for him. Playing how we have against one of the most talented teams in NBA history and sweeping a good Blazers team has been pretty amazing. All while not having a top 20 NBA player do to injury. This team has so much to look forward to. This off season we need to improve the wing.

[Alg_Hornet]

Get rondo and Davis out

[bahmamamba]

Wow man straight up screw Davis this is how he shows up in a huge game ******** him

This loss is 80% on the players and 20% on the coaches. No excuse for the lack of effort. Thank God we avoided a sweep.

[Taker597]

Rondo and Davis stunk up the court enough for one day.

[England_Hornet]

Horrible horrible effort.

We can’t do a damn thing right and durant can’t miss.

[Alg_Hornet]

I don’t think there will be much interest in that game . If the team competed today then it would be a different story but Davis. Game 5 is simply a formality.

Maybe, but for some reason I feel like we'll take it and come back and get knocked out in game 6 at home. Which is possibly even sadder, somehow.

Probably get blown out. Gonna be a fun Tuesday night game and I'll watch every second of it. No more Pelicans basketball till October gonna suck.

The way we are finishing this game ... i can’t expect anything but a 20 plus blow out

[AUSSIE_PELICAN]

This team already exceeded my expectations, especially when Cousins went down.

I hope Dell can address the SF position.
We need length like 4 years ago.

[Taker597]

AD... Just stop.

[Pelicanidae]

Yeah, I don't blame you and you're probably right, I just have a vague feeling.

Dell did well with the Moore signing

The Solo signing could actually end up being worse than the Asik signing

Hill's one skill is hitting catch and shoot threes once in a while

I'm not sure how that begs 13 mil a year

Post of the day! Get us a freakin SF Dell! We’re past due.

[Pelicanidae]

Post of the day! Get us a freakin SF Dell! We’re past due.

Paul George incoming.

Or Kawhi Leonard.

Or Lebron James.

It's just hit me how many amazing small forwards are (at least theoretically) on the market this summer.

[DaFranchise80]

Not trying to deflect but I’m so glad that I’m not a Raptors fan.

[Taker597]

So...

We need to trade another 1st to get rid of Hill contracts... I'm a Gentry fan now, but Demps can still go with these bad contract and no 1st round pick in 6 years.

Dump another bad contract with a 1st
Get a real SF
Resign Rondo on a 2 +1
Resign Boogie last.

[GuardianAngel25]

We need a legitimate small forward but even still what are going to do against this team.

Hopefully cousins can come back and be a great player for us . He is a matchup problem for the warriors.

Yes Cousins gives us our own special problem for teams. When you look at the Rockets and Warriors sure they have mismatches for us but with Cousins and AD so do we. We can also dictate lineups teams will run on us. On top of that you throw in a bench big like Mirotic in a 3 man playoff rotation and we are tough to deal with. We add a solid wing and this team is set. With our bigs we present a problem for teams that nobody else does.
