Kill them. Most of them are out anyway.

Ingram and Herb Jones did everything at practice yesterday so they probably will be available. Tough game if they are back.

Doesn't matter. Just kill them.

How do you kill something that cannot die?

Checking the standings that's not true.

With Theis out Missi is gonna play +30 minutes for sure. I am impressed by his play and I know that we were interested in him at #22 but he wasn't available at that point. He looks a solid two-way C since the first day in the league.

Would love to see Oso matched up with Missi.

I remember the first time Goran Dragic matched up against Derrick Rose:

This is sad as far as support for NO is concerned. I saw tickets online as cheap as $2. For an NBA game. It'd probably cost you more to get there than that.

I wanted to bet on the Pelicans for this game since I figured this has chance to be repeat of the Nets game but the odds weren’t even very good. Like they’re basically trying to screw you over regardless of if you bet on the Pelicans or the Suns.

And that’s dumb as hell considering this is a 4 win Pelicans team.

That's pretty crazy since they had very high expectations before the season started. Though it makes sense since they have been hit with injuries all season. They are only missing Zion now though right? The only major roster hit I mean.

He’s gonna be out for a week at least after the game. I think there will be swelling on it tomorrow based on how the replay looked.

I agree with the below tweet responding to the above one

That beautiful 3rd quarter once again

Defensively we suck. Lazy as all **** hell.

And Beal needs to start carrying some of the water because he has been garbage the past couple games and is straight chucking

SkyBill40 · Post #17 » by **SkyBill40** » Fri Dec 6, 2024 2:44 am

Booker trying to play hero ball and making one poor decision after another. And with this pretty weak sauce effort they're putting in tonight, it's looking like the 9 game losing streak NO has going on is about to end.

What's it going to take for this team to get it together? Will they ever?

It is inexcusable for the Suns to lose this. KD injury or not. That said, they may find a way

If Beal is hurt or struggling, Jones or Montae should be in the secondary creator role. You cannot have a guy wreck you. Also, our D is a **** joke. Weird traps begging for open 3s. We are going to give up 130 to the **** pelicans

Montae has an open shot, Grayson semi open, and they pass it around to give Okogie a corner 3. The ****
