After a big night from Randle, setting a new career high, and Elfrid hitting his third consecutive triple double (the most consecutive trip dubs in Pelicans history), we managed to also get a loss! Which is nice for the tank. Unfortunately Washington also lost, so we didn't jump over them quite. They don't play tonight though, so if we can manage a loss to Phoenix then we'll pass them and then it'll be neck and neck.
We have now lost 5 straight, and honestly, this is a game we can win even without Jrue and Moore. We play Phoenix. We've lost 5 straight, they've lost 3 of 4. They suck at an astronomical level, but we've not looked too hot recently either. I will note though that we have not lost 16 straight at any point, which they did back in February, which is just tragic.
Well, since we've played Phoenix pretty recently, I'm not going to put too much here. I just hope that, after not really playing too much last game, Diallo and Okafor get more of a chance to play. It's the second night of a back to back and Randle played 43 minutes last night, so surely Gentry has to see that maybe limiting him to 30 tonight is a better idea than playing him out full-on.
Let's go and #DoItFairlySized.
