No significant injuries as far as I can see. I'm always interested in having another look at Zion and how strained his relationship looks with the Pelicans.

No should win... but...

I only hope George doesn't get more minutes than Dunn.

Zero defense and Clarkson turning the ball over..... Not good.....

Pelicans shooting 55%, I mean maybe if we played more zone.......

Clarkson working on a triple double

10 Points
6 Assists

6 Turn Overs

This teams is much better when you play Kessler, Agbaji and Dunn and then you insert Markkanen, Clarkson or Sexton.

We can't play Olynyk, Clarkson, Sexton and George in a same lineup. This is a suicide.

We have streches of good basketball in this game, but the rotation has to be different. Our TO kill us. Bench had 13 TO, starters 5.

There's no sense in George minutes. I'm sorry but this is what it is. They guy was -13, 1-7 Fg% and 2 TO with 3 reb and 5 assists... but he is always negative. Dunn is not the best pg out there in the league and still is much better as PG than him.
The guy is shooting 36% from the floor, 32 from 3. 2,3 TO per game.

I don't know what is happening with Talen, but if he is healthy George minutes has to go between Talen and Dunn.

FJS and others,

I agree to disagree with the upmost respect.

I would play George and Sexton every minute we possibly can and put Dunn's rear end on the bench unless injuries require us to play him and possibly THT as well. We have all been clamoring on this board about not playing Hendricks enough as well. We got to play these guys no matter what their numbers are telling us. We aren't here to win this year.

We need to stop with this nonsense. Play the young guys and move on.

I understand your point.. but if we are doing to do it, let's do with Hendricks too. What is a no sense is giving big minutes to players who aren't showing anything because they did a good summer league.
The guy is shooting 35% FG. This is unacceptable. There's a lot of team (rockets, Pistons, Sixers in the process) where their youngs did not learn anything.
Frankly, Kessler and Ochai has showed more than KG and they are young. And probably they learnt more last year because they played with veterans and tried to win. I think young players grow more in a right culture.
Let him playing as bad as he is, not playing Hendricks (who is not playing worse than him) or Brice is the real no sense.
Life is not easy, earn your minutes.
If you continue with this pathetic defense, your poor FG% and your high TOV, you must to remain in the bench. And I don't care if we are winning or losing.
I rather to compete. We are not going to take the 1st position in the draft. Pistons, Blazers, Spurs, Washington, Hornets, Hawks, Raptors and Grizzlies are right now worse than us. Do you want another Hendricks? Cool. Play him. Bulls, Nets, Warriors and Rockets aren't much better right now.
