Good first. I like the effort from all teams except the usual solo play from Randle. Yes he score but that's all he do. No defense, TO....

We've lost 6 straight against teams with losing records. We need to stop that tonight.

Loved Meyers as the Lakers play by play guy in the post Shaq era. His voice made waking up at 4:30 on the weekends more tolerable

Chicago area would be the closest, maybe Omaha depending on what side of the state.

Nope but its a really funny name for an arena, at the same time I really want to try one of their smoothies. Hopefull,y the Pels arena has some amazing smoothies, if not, that will be a massive let down.

I am wondering what the Wolves do during half time? Can we stop the point Ant experiment?

To start the third the Pelicans have 7 FGA (including 3 layups/dunks) and 2 FT, while the Wolves have an airballed 3pt attempt and 3 TO.

He is not a point guard. I don't anyone has ever claimed him to be one.

This halfcourt group doesn't work against chaos. New Orleans might be the most prime example of chaos around.

Up 8 going to start the 4th is very lucky after how they started the 3rd. Really need this win to stay with the 16-17 loss pack.

They must be amazing. I'm not even into smoothies, but now I'm intrigued..

Finally Randle throws a pass to Gobert for a dunk. Just hope Randle and Ant don't shoot us out of the game.

Gobert has baby hands

Sticky s*t. Randle caused the Gobert 3 sec call, then Ant missed two tough shots in a row. Glad the ball is back with Conley

EDIT: add that miss dunk and turnover to Ant's resume

If Ant can get one more rebound to end this game, we’ll have three players in double digits for rebounds. Not sure when the last time that happened?
