November 2nd - New Orleans Pelicans vs Detroit Pistons - 3-1

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Herb has the clutch gene

[Pelicanidae]

CJ bruh, please

[RobertM320]

Looks like a team out of gas. Three games in 4 days, the same day flight, a lot of energy expended last night after falling way behind, and then having to dig deep again in this game when it looked like we could coast to the end.

[Pelicanidae]

HERB LMAO

[Pelicanidae]

Herb the Hero

[Freyfamilyreuni]

I don’t see Herb ever getting a mystery knee injury between shoot around and the game

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Nice surprise win

[markid]

3 games in 4 days. They are probably exhausted at this point.

[Pelicanidae]

Fantastic team effort win.

33/4/5 from CJ
23/13/5 with 3 blocks from JV
20/2/2 from Matt Ryan

And Herb with the gaudy statline of 21/5/3 with 3 steals and 4 blocks

4 guys with 20 points, Herb collecting an insane quantity of stocks, JV holding it down on the boards, CJ fuelling the offense early, Matt Ryan sniping.

Was seriously thinking CJ had Detroit and the points in this game. Line was 4.5 and he "slipped" and turned the ball over, then jacked up a crazy 3 that was way off with plenty of time on the clock, and then kicked his dribble out of bounds.

[6warddude]

this team made free throws on a back to back to hold on to the lead....

good win...

[Pelicanidae]

Shout out Dyson also for a pretty good game. 10/7/6 with a steal, and a pretty wild 3 late in the game

[RobertM320]

33/35 from the FT line tonight. 94%. That's different.

[Pelicanidae]

Pelicans are now 4-1. We have played zero games fully healthy.

[Pelicanidae]

33/35 from the FT line tonight. 94%. That's different.

Including from guys that missed a bunch yesterday. CJ went 10/11 from the FT line tonight - he was 4/7 last night.

Daniels went 2/2 tonight - he was 1/4 last game.

Could you imagine if Dyson ever developed a shot? For extended stretches you could put him on a penetrating guard and Herb on their best wing.

True but also, the number of players who are ''if they shoot'' away from being superstars is huge.

You can tell they are doing well because nobody is talking about trading players.

Oh I’d be more than happy to trade BI right now

Me too. Gotta make room for Matt Ryan. Lol

I mean, I can if you want?

[As I See It]

Fantastic team effort win.

4 guys with 20 points, Herb collecting an insane quantity of stocks, JV holding it down on the boards, CJ fueling the offense early, Matt Ryan sniping.

......and this is why we'd be fools to trade JV. We were +20 when he was on the court.

Sidebar: The first half was the best showing of selfless team basketball by the franchise in New Orleans.

The intrusive pop-up ads getting old. Would be nice if admin would look into it. I come here because of habit, but as things are I may migrate to the site with more game time action if things don’t improve.
