    Doris Burke ''you have to get it out of Chris Paul's hands, you have to make somebody else beat you''

    Yes, can someone let the Pelicans know that?

    Naji - 4 mins

    Naji plays 4 mins in the first half, doesnt play in the 2nd half. Basically, I tell him to go out there and harrass CP3 for 4 mins, giving Herb a break off him for 4 mins in the first half. I am going to finish this game with CJ-BI-Herb-Trey-Nance. In that 2nd half, I am blitzing and trapping every pick and roll and making other guys try to beat me.
    From 5PM today. And I am not getting paid millions to coach. Go ahead and blame the refs. I am putting this one on Willie

    Anybody else noticed ESPN keeps using the New Orleans Hornets logo coming out breaks?? What is that

    I just don't understand what's so complicated about the idea of ''don't let one of the greatest midrange shooters and ballhandlers of all time feel comfortable in self-creating midrange in the 4th quarter of a playoff game''. It's not rocket science.

    Why is Lance on the 3pt line

  12. #162
    Complete 4th quarter implosion

  13. #163
    Now that is frustrating. To lose an eminently winnable game because of a complete refusal to respond to what was actually happening on court.

  14. #164
    Can someone explain to me why you let Larry take 4 3s man...

  15. #165
    When your offense down the stretch consists of multiple Larry Nance three point attempts you're doing something wrong.

    Not complete. One issue. One unprepared coach.

    I mean I like Nance but it's insane to put the game on his shoulders - from 3! nuts.

    The ball keeps ending up in his hands with the shot clock running out. Blame it on execution you would think we could have gotten a better shot off before nance has to heave a 3.

    Ugly possessions late from every name you can think of. Nobody on the team playing well since Alvarado went off - that means the final 5 minutes were essentially bad play all around. Can't win that, especially when CP3 is there.

    Whatever else is true about CP3 is that he's just not going to beat himself. It's not enough to try and make him lose, you have to force a win.

    lol if we lose this series I’ll be disappointed we definitely should’ve won this one I like nance but he’s not big enough and he shot way too many threes we need Brandon to have the most shots McCollum should be the second option Hayes is nice for defense and drawing fouls but did a bone head thing

  21. #171
    Chris Paul given three days rest is a killer. Maybe when we get him Sunday, his shots won't be falling as consistently. The problem is when he's on, we don't really have anyone that can guard him any length of time, and he's killing us on all of our switches. Offensively, I don't know what to say. That was an embarrassment. We weren't running any plays to free up BI or CJ. It was just like the second quarter, they just kept going ISO ball and allowed the Suns to hit them with double teams forcing bad shots from Larry Nance at the end of the shot clock.

    Missing jaxson hurt us on the boards we got killed.

  23. #173
    To be honest, I think this was a must win game for us. Even if we win Sunday they've regained homecourt advantage, with the light at the end of the tunnel in Booker returning. Which won't matter if we can't do anything about our center play.

  24. #174
    Brandon need to come out like booker did and take over the game not have Alvarado and nance leading

    We actually out-rebounded them on both ends.

    It just feels like we got killed on the boards because we lost a lot of crucial ones late. Why? Well, we benched Valanciunas. Cause CP3 was cooking him. But then CP3 cooked Nance too, and Nance wasn't rebounding. So we gained nothing by benching JV and lost the rebounding. Lovely.
