    It’s another reason why Dyson needs to hold onto his starting spot when CJ gets in. We need all the rebounding help we can get.

    Why we didnt try to score on last possession. It is IST and couple of points could be important for tie-breaker?

    Half the players have no idea what's going on with the tournament and only about 20% of the fans actually care.

    They are already at +23. Without going to check that might be the biggest differential in the west at this moment.

    Yea but teams like Pelicans should try to give their fanbases something to cheer for. We sufferd a lot, and we get excited for little things. I hope we don't get knocked out bcs of 2 points.

    Yeah but what the first part means - about the players - is that the guys on the floor may legit have not even considered it. It's not that they knew it was an option and decided not to, its that they don't even really get that point differential is a thing.

    That said, we already have the largest point differential in our group, by a fair margin.

    One of my biggest reasons why WG is not the HC going forward is his almost hatred of JV and pigheadedness of not using JV more and finishing games with a useless LN. It's the sign of a dumb coach

    **It's the 2nd highest among teams that's played 3 games. The highest is OKC but they are 1 - 2.

    So if they finish 3 - 1 and still dont win group B, still a good chance they can get the wildcard spot.

    Tied with Denver at 2-1 for the Holiday Cup. Beat the Clippers and advance. Nuggets win we have the h2h and point differential tie breakers. idk if it h2h counts first. the format funky.

    IF DEN and Pels both finish at 3-1, that means the Nuggets would have beaten the Rockets,, who can then be no better than 3-1. A three way tie would be determined by point differential, which we lead. And we would be one of the top 6 to move on.

    good game...

    again herb and naji bring that energy and hustle that make everyone else follow...

    im glad dyson confidence is growing on offense and especially with attacking the rim.......

    and i think any trade herb or herb should come off of the bench talk should be silent for a couple of years....

    go pels........

    I don't know about you guys, but im really looking forward to that Cliipers IST game. I think it was right move by NBA to make this tourney a reallity.

    24.11.2023, 10:30 pm! I just hope we don't have any more injuries untill then.

    *We could have already advanced if we showed up against the Rockets :/

    Dyson Daniels getting all these reps and time with the first unit is going to be really beneficial for us. When CJ comes back I hope he's with the 2nd team whereas to take advantage of him being a scoring combo guard that he is and can come in and light it up with the unit that needs him to do so

    I’m glad we are riding out the storm as things could’ve easily gotten ugly. Two big wins to get us back to even. We really just need to get everybody back and have one healthy season. Even Naji has been a huge miss for us as the guy rebounds, is a willing cutter and will spot up when asked. Trey, CJ and Jose will make us incredibly dangerous regardless of our transition to a new offense.

    I was listening to the spaces and they were really going off on Willie Green even after a W. I thought I was the only one that hates the way he coaches.

    I don’t blame Green at this point as he is only in his 3rd year of a head coaching job. He is obviously in over his head and that is on the organization for waiting until the team was built to compete to sign a rookie head coach. They could have gone this route earlier but they wasted two years on Gentry and Stan THEN decide to go this direction when we have an actual team. It is utter stupidity from the front office and hopefully Green picks it up quick but he will likely not be the reason we compete. It will be up to the players to buy in and build that chemistry on the court and take over.

    I actually agree with another poster that we don't need CJ if this team is relatively healthy. I'd look into moving him for an expiring(s) and a first rounder. With the cap space we can help keep everyone else.

    About half the fanbase has been on Green's case for the last 2 years, not sure how you've missed it.

    It has crossed my mind that maybe Green and Borrego should switch places, though it would never happen.
