We're up a few midway through the 2nd.

Terrible call leading to cousins third foul.

Mclemore some very good takes, but looks terrible on defense.

Reke travels on one end no call; IT on the other and it gets called.

You could see DMC shaking his head and laughing about it on the bench. He looks pissed otherwise.

Had a monster first half though with 17 pts while Anthony Davis was 0/7 I believe with 3 pts or something.

I don't understand why the Pelicans let Cousins dominate his match up (Ajinca & Steisma) not let Davis have a go on Cousins. If Davis was this great defender (not saying he's not), he should match up on Cousins. Maybe, he will when Cousins make one of Ajinca/Steisma foul out.

With the amount of fouls being called tonight I assume the a hornets don't want to risk Davis picking up some more fouls.

It isn't like Davis is balling out on offense. He's 1-10 FG & getting owned by JT.

Whole team goes to pick Ray up

Yeah great to see Ray taking it strong to the bucket too.

I'm just not a Anthony Davis guy. I can't buy the future top 3 talk, although I think he will be a good all-star for many years

reggie evans is a keeper for this team!

IT and Ray together look effective

Ray Mac with the three! Definitely agree with IT/Ray looking effective together.

This is probably the Kings best lineup:

Isaiah
McCallum
Gay
Evans
Cousins

Derrick goes too long with invisible stretches/games. I have hopes for him developing into a serious player

Start Reggie Evans.

NO tanking hard trying to keep their pick.

i would hate to be the opponent fighting for rebounds against cuz and evans...

I've always liked Evans as a player, nothings changed now that he's a King, but Ray McCallum is becoming one of my favs. I love guards who are just flat out pesky and capable defenders. He could develop into a Kirk Hinrich type, this team desperately needs that.

Because NOLA understands they have no shot at the playoffs this year, and the addition of a potential elite-level talent is much more worthwhile than getting the 10th seed.

aka...NOLA tanking. Hard. Look at how much they've been playing Austin Rivers lately.



Sigh, the way things are playing out. Philadelphia, New Orleans, and Los Angeles will all make the playoffs before Sacramento

NO blew a chance to be amazing with the Holiday trade. If they sign Evans, keep Noel, keep their pick and tank away this year with Noel being injured, they have a chance to add a top 5 pick and then check out that lineup. What if they got Exum?

Noel
Davis
Who cares
Evans
Exum

Damn.
