    Pelicans November 30th - New Orleans Pelicans v Toronto Raptors - 12-8



    Pels play another home game, this time against the Raptors.

    Currently sitting at 11-9, the Raptors have been a pretty good team this year. They're 6th in the East at this point, and are 5-5 over their last 10 games, so they're kind of coasting at the moment.

    They are, thus far in the season, a much better home team than away. 8 of their 11 wins come at home, whereas they have a 3-7 record on the road. Meanwhile, our record is currently 7-3 over the last 10 and 7-3 at home. So there's reason to be optimistic.

    When it comes to injury, it's fairly simple. Naji, Nance, and CJ are all questionable and Ingram remains out. So lineup is probably pretty similar to last game.

    Raptors aren't pushovers and the team will need to be locked in, so let's see if they can execute again before heading out on the road.
    Basketball.

    I'm expecting this one to be a tough one to pull out, unless everyone but Ingram actually plays. Maybe this will be a road struggle game for Toronto, but I just can't see the team we rolled out on Monday (especially if Temple has to play as many minutes as he did again) being able to beat this Toronto team. But, "that's why they play the game."

    Raptors record is a little deceiving becasue they've been dealing with their own injury problems all year.

    But of course for tonight, Siakam just came back and they will be about as full strength as they've been all year.

    But Achiuwa remains out and they arent exactly very large inside. But they've got wingspan.

    Toronto is a 1 point road favorite.

    Who hasn't been dealing with injuries at this point? BI, CJ, Morant, Zion, Jrue, Middleton, Giannis, Bane, Embiid, Lebron, Kawhi, all names who have missed 3+ games so far this season and we're only 20 games in.

    Herb driving to the cup is his best look offensively. Like it when he doesnt settle for the outside shot

    Healthy, aggressive Zion is the most entertaining player in the NBA.

    Dyson's passing is years ahead of where I think anyone could have thought it was.

    He plays with the decisiveness and confidence of a vet on both ends of the floor

    In 3:42 of playing time, DD has 4 points and 3 assists. Griff won on this pick big time.

    Every time he gets run, he looks good. Even when the scoring isn't happening, he's a positive on the floor. Clearly needs to be in the rotation even when the entire squad is healthy.

    Trey is a good enough shooter that he can make them even when he doesnt catch it in rhythm

    Bench moving the ball so well tonight with Dyson in. Starters too, actually.

    Like it doesn't fell like he's just having a good night either. This just feels different.
