#6 in row
16-10

AD speaks w JB about buying his condo.
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

AD probably sitting this one out. Pels don't want to wreck his value after a -50 handout from Theis.

Feed the streak. Another 50+ point win, no mercy.

The four man unit of Kyrie-Smart-Tatum-Morris has the best net rating in the NBA amongst all units with >100 minutes this season. Thats nuts.

Semi Ojeleye has been really solid in limited minutes. He’s shooting 36% from 3 and playing great defense as always.

Yep. Also, it is notable that Theis has two victory cigars, coming off of injury and having played so little to date. He needs more time!

He’s being groomed perfectly for a big role next season following FA departures and our hopeful 3 for 1 AD trade

If you are a real estate agent, you should spend a ton of money on in-arena advertising tomorrow night during the game. There may be some potential clients on the opposing team, looking for homes sometime in the summer of 2019

One thing to keep in mind... we are 15-10 and have only played 10 home games (lowest amount in league) thus far. Compare that to 15 road homes, and I did a quick lazy scan and I believe that’s the most road games played in the league..

Rumor has it he won’t be traveling with the team for this game. Pelicans fear there is risk in having him experience playing in front of real fans this close to his pending free agency. Sources expect AD to be ready to go tonight in Detriot though.

I previously stated we'd catch the Raptors in the standings by Xmas. Decimation of the Pels keeps that alive. Raptors have a ridiculously tough stretch (8 out of next 9 against top teams with a 5 game west coast trip) so these wins are a must.

They are lucky that Denver will be without Milsap and Gary Harris though. Looks like Murray might be out after he got kicked in the shins the other night too.

Become the 1st team in NBA history to follow up a 50+ point road win with a 50+ point home win. Why even do that, some would ask. Because we **** can! (If we lose by double-digits, feel free to blame me and my cockiness).

Still a week away so hopefully Murray's back by then.
