    Based on his injury history? Name one valid reason for thinking that's a possibility.

    Matt Ryan starting. I hope we take 400 threes.

    Statistically speaking, our best lineups so far this season are JV + 3 shooters. Player 5 can be anyone and the lineups have worked. Tonight it's JV + 3 shooters + Herb.

    Let's see if the small sample size statistics bear up to a more rigorous test.
    Basketball.

    Matt Ryan starting hot

    CJ scoring too

    Matt Ryan with a 3rd 3 already, he's 3/3 to start

    We are already short handed and now we are resting guys because why not right? We basically have zero competition in the West. Hell, let Zeller start at point guard. Let's do all the smart things

    Alternatively, yeah let's run guys into the ground early despite knowing they have a serious injury history just for the sake of looking tough to the public and then act like we don't know why there's a season ending injury 10 games into the year.

    Herb warming up now

    Matt Ryan up to 11 first quarter points

    He's been so good for us this year so far. Dude's really fighting for a legit contract

    20 minutes would be fine.

    Matt Ryan may have found a home here

    Plays hard on defense even if he's not naturally gifted there, shoots the ball with all the confidence of a real gunner, is 6'6, and could probably be had on a relatively inexpensive contract. Feels like it to me.

    Much better than the corpse named Garrett Temple.

    You know what would be nice to see in some of the spots where scoring is rough? Seabron.

    Say what you like about Seabron's overall game, but there's not many other people on this team who will drive with the consistency and efficacy he provides. Dude just does it.

  16. #41
    Oh look, speak of the Devil - there's Seabron

    CJ's still hot from the end of last game

  18. #43
    I'd get mad at Ryan for that out of bounds TO if it weren't for the fact that, as a Pelican, it's ritual that we have at least one of those every few games. Never seen a team more prone to it than us.

  19. #44
    Love that, after the statistical background of it working, and then it working well in the first quarter, we have now abandoned JV + 3 shooters in exchange for JV + 3 none-shooters.

    Started late after fighting with the Bally app. Is Hawkins playing?

    Yeah, he's played some. Not done too much yet though

    Matt Ryan really trying to make amends for that last second 3pt shot against us last season, isn't he?

  24. #49
    Matt Ryan is 4/4 from 3 so far this game.

    4 3PM in a game is his career high, also - largely linked to the fact that this is the first team he's getting real minutes on.

    Fun fact: that shot happened exactly one year ago. To the day, I think.
