    Pelicans February 5th - New Orleans Pelicans vs Toronto Raptors - 28-21



    Today we take on the 17-32 Raptors.

    They're 24th in Net Rating, as a result of being 19th and 20th in ORtg and DRtg respectively, and their recent record reflects that. They are 5-12 thus far in 2024. Now, in fairness to them, they've also had a fairly tricky schedule over that time (losses to Boston, OKC, Sacramento, Clippers, etc) but nevertheless, it's true. That 5-12 is probably an overestimation of their current strength as well, because in that time they've made trades and 3 of those 5 wins came right at the start of January. Since January 10th, they're 2-10.

    They're bad.

    The Pelicans, meanwhile, have recovered for a few wins after a short skid and are hoping to continue their recent success. Let's see if they can do it - this could be a trap game.
    Basketball.

    We are more talented team by far.
    They are tonight on second night of b2b and they played 2OT game last night.

    There is 0 excuses for tonights game. We have to win it, and we have to make it easy.


    All that said, we are the Pelicans, who knows what will happen!

    Starting to see Zion making a point of getting down the floor early and getting position deep in the paint. Good stuff

    Now that BI had a great game im allowed to post this.

    https://x.com/NBA_University/status/...967701042?s=20

    He is great at making bad shots, but they are still bad and not efficient shots.

    Was very encouraged by what I saw from BI and the rest of the squad. We can make an even bigger statement with an LA sweep in these next 2 games. Let’s get it!

    Yawn… now let me see games like that against contenders consistently. It doesn?t happen. Giving him a supermax will kill this team for 5 years.

    Don't say such things, you'll be seen as too negative.

    Some people wear pink glasses and they dont see the world as it is.
    For example, tonight we play nationalonal televised game vs Clippers. History thought us that we always get wrecked in these games which means we will get wrecked tonight, but some people will not believe it untill it happens...
