Thread: February 14th - New Orleans Pelicans @ Detroit Pistons - 11-14

  1. #1

    Pelicans February 14th - New Orleans Pelicans @ Detroit Pistons - 11-14



    Josh Hart and NAW both questionable coming into the game. Killian Hayes and Jahlil Okafor are both out, and Frank Jackson, Sekou Doumbouya, and Mason Plumlee all missed the last game for Detroit and so are slight question marks tonight.

    We lost the last two games, at least one of which we should have taken. That's bad.

    Tonight we take on the 7-19 Detroit Pistons, the second worst team in NBA basketball this year. So let's see what happens.

    21st in Def and 23rd in Off, the Pistons aren't much good at anything this year. They are bottom 10 in the league in points, rebounds, assists, steals, blocks, turnovers, and fouls. They are 25th in the league in 3pt% (35.1%) and 29th in FG% overall (43.4%), and they don't pick up bunches of points at the line either because they're only floating about league average there (12th).

    Jerami Grant has exploded for them this year, averaging 23/5/3 on 44/38/87 splits - by far career best numbers - after betting on himself in the offseason. Good for him. After him, they have no player averaging more than 12 points a game. The only other guy who was, Derrick Rose, just got traded to New York.

    Being honest, this should be another clean win. But we all know there is no game our Pelicans are not prepared to lose, so fingers will have to be crossed and we'll see what happens.
    Basketball.

    Of course NAW is questionable. It's questionable whether he ever sees court time again

    Wishing everyone a happy Valentines Dae

    If we get bombed on again by a team as garbage as Detroit, now with no Derrick Rose, then we are hopeless.

    Saddiq Bey had a really nice game last game. I say the previous issues turn into Detroit having 87 points in the paint tonight. SVG really seemed lost and flabbergasted after the last game.

    In other news, Jayson Tatum turned in a 3/14, 6 point performance in a loss to the 7-16 Wizards.

    If BI were to ever have a game that trash, the smoke coming off this board with equate Hiroshima.

    It's so sad to see how broken his jumper is rn. Don't know if it's a confidence issue or what.

    What the ********ing ********

    Clear path or not, that's not a Basketball play

    Shut the ******** up AD. Bear hugging someone from behind with no intention to play at the ball is no where near a basketball play

    Easy flagrant 1 clear path or not

    Bled, just stop shooting plz. SVG, put in Kira NOW.

    Zo, what the hell was that drive into two defenders with your head down. What was going on in your head?

    These consistent 1st quarter fast starts can't be a mirage. There is loads of talent on this team and for teams that averages +113 per game on offense and also have the most droughts and longest scoring drought in the 2nd through 4th QTR just seems to indicate that while we go on fast start. We really lack a field general to keep the team settle and composed.

    Kira will be that guy. Gotta give him minutes tho, and it looks like Stan is now after that garbage start by the 44%FG for the season Bledsoe.

    Our guards outside of Kira and Hart are the biggest issue.

    Every time JJ comes in, the team goes cold and loses all momentum. It’s hilarious to see cause it’s happened for 20 games and he’s still playing lol. He’s handcuffing this team .

    Is Adams injured? He looks slow in the paint on defense.

    He looks awful. In fact, the team just looks miserable. After they do the first round of subs, it just looks off every game.

    No excuse losing to the Pistons. We better pull this out.
