Another 40pt quarter to a mediocre team. Not sure if it's the Harden news but the team just looks deflated.

The energy level is minimal at best.

Defense picked up in the after that awful run to start the game. Just need the offense to pick up and should be good.

This New Orleans roster looks awfully built btw

We have no chance if this is the Kyrie we're getting tonight. He's not interested. Breaking away from the gameplan defensively.

Really disappointed in Kyrie. He's playing awful basketball on both ends of the court right now.

We've played better with him on the bench.

Kyrie should focus on facilitating. He clearly doesn't have the same spring in his legs to be his usual effective self. Get open looks for Joe and Shamet, shouldn't be too hard given the Pels defense.

Ramadan Kyrie is not the best basketball version of himself clearly. :(

Sometimes I have no idea what the official is watching. That ball was as blatantly off Ingram as you can get, and they call it off Griffin somehow? Are you kidding?

Good thing we didn't give up points, but we should have had the last shot of the half. And no way do I want Nash challenging that with just 2.4 seconds left in the half, even if he definitely wins it.

It's not even that, his defense is lazy as ****.

And our offense is looking better without him too...when he's in, we're force feeding him the ball on offense and totally getting away from what's actually working.

Sometimes this team just hard to watch with their lack of effort. Thats why I'm hoping Alize can get some burn. Brown can't be the only extra hustle guy.

With the Harden set back, tonight is a very important game for us to win. Hopefully our luck will turn around.
