It's appropriate that a Pelican's wingspan is the largest of all the birds

Coz that's how wide open we leave every shooter

I've seen enough. Durant is the best, Harden is the best, Irving is the best. Get the parade route planned.

This game Zion is playing like he did when he was way overweight and still recovering from the meniscus tear. Looks disinterested. His worst game in a while.

He isn't. There is no pressure on him to create and score so he can play within the flow of the game. One of the many benefits of playing in a stacked team


I'd maybe buy that if Kyrie and Harden were both playing but that reason is literally false for this game.

He is in mid-season form.

Is this the new NBA where super teams get constructed where key players can miss half the season (Lakers & Nets). You wonder what the rest of the league is thinking playing most of their key players most of the season.

Maybe Harden should come back as a sixth man?

For me the true best player in NBA (Kukoc was right)
Absolutely unguardable and plays in the right way to make things even better.

SVG and David Griffin should be fired. This is truly embarrassing to watch.

This is ridiculous. Pelicans better not waste 7 years of Zion with this trash roster around him.

They should’ve sold high on Lonzo

Harden can have Wilt Chamberlain stats and he still will not win the MVP. His stint in Houston did him in.

I say this about once a week, but Grayson Allen has quietly turned himself into a good NBA starting 2 guard. He is a good defender, he is a damn good shooter and can attack the basket every once in a while.

The buyout market mechanism is seriously **** when you can add probable hall of famers in their early to mid 30s for the minimum

I wish fans were able to eject referees from games.
