I think you'd find 10x more Pels fans that want to move on from CJ than Ingram.

Expect NO to stick JV on Giddey, stay off him and see if it works.

Giddey made 5 3s last time vs Pelicans. If that happens again Pels chances would go from 10 to 0%.

Pels will probably let Giddey and Dort open (like any team that will face us) so yeah we need them to shoot at a decent percentage.

Dort is a killer this year. I wouldn’t leave him open unless they want to lose badly. Giddey maybe, it will depend on which Giddey we get today, hopefully the good one we’ve had lately.

Best case scenario i’ve heard in one of the broadcasts is Game 5 or 6, which should fit the 2 week timeline.

Y’all don’t speak Pels lingo. Like Mrakar said, if our front office says “to be evaluated in 2 weeks.” That means 2-3 months.

You got to be able to see those two building from crazy distances on a clear day in OKC.
