This game is looking bad. Pelicans have had a ton of control. We have had a lot of opportunities but not able to capitalize. Need to see a much different team in the second half to win. The defense needs to get much better, we are getting out muscled and the Pelicans are hitting a lot of their open looks.

Also the refs are giving us no love. Ant is getting mugged, Towns got mugged a few times, no whistles.

What happened to Nowell?

JV is kidney punching KAT with his elbows on almost all his post ups.
Refs don’t care.

Towns needs to stop whining and take it To JV.

What happened to Nowell?

Collision knocked him for a loop and a rolled his ankle. Came back for the free throws but could barely move. Played one defensive possession as well and then went right to locker room.

These jerseys are cursed like the muskie jerseys. Seems like every time we wear them we get bodied.

No defense at all. We need Ant to go on a tear here in the 4th

Thanks. Bleep! It hurts to lose him.

Sloppy careless ball tonight. Ball doesn't want to drop.

That's it. Props to the Pelicans man, they got our number and they own us. They just know how play us so well and they executed massively tonight. Can't take that away from them. Good game. Zion needs to get it together so they can make some noise.

Wow tie game, did not see that happening.

3.6 seconds of defense and we get 5 minutes to win it.

lol of course a cellar team hits a miracle shot against us

Post #39 » by **Calinks** » Wed Jan 12, 2022 3:42 am

LOL you just knew he was going to hit that shot with how this game was going. Pelicans had those sliders all the way up. Props, good win and great game from Ingram.

Disappointing that Okogie got knocked off like that. I kind of think Anthony Edwards should have left his man to help, in that situation.
