Watching Russ play 10 ft off his guy is so frustrating even when it doesn’t hurt us on that specific play.

OKC just looks visibly frantic on offense. Needlessly so.

Donovan was getting a head start in case Gentry went small and decided not to play Cousins or Davis.

This team is pathetic. They are never going to "figure it out" with this coach.

He’s easily the most consistent player. I’d have this guy out there 36 minutes every night.

So how do you guys feel about getting Stackhouse or Messina to replace Donovan? Can't be worse

Felton and Russ together to close the game is cute.

They need a swift kick in the ass. There is zero fight in this team.

They're one of our worst defensive duos, so it makes sense that BD plays them in a close game

When was the last two of these guys had a good game against a decent opponent? Has it happened?

This is sad. 19 point lead to N.O, 23 pt lead to Spurs, 22 point lead to the Celtics, 15 point lead to the Kings...Am I missing any?

Almost blew a lead against the clippers. We’ve only beat three teams with a winning record-Knicks, Pacers and Bucks, all from the east. We aren’t as good as our record.

The Pelicans fan in me is relieved. The thunder fan in me has reached a boiling point. It's not like the Cousinsless pels were executing all that great on either end. And like I said the Pels havent beat a team playing well all season. I was still very confident in this team a weak ago? Now? I dont even know. What a mess.

And another loss in a game decided by 8 points or less.

Surprising.
