Shout Out to them Caw Caw Boyz! @jee504 @Crude_ @HafBayked @AP21 @Shizlansky @caddo man hopefully I'm not missing nobody!
What's y'all predictions?
This is a make or break season, the Rondo injury may slow us down but I'm confident we will pick up a decent backup point guard like Jamer Nelson to fill his place until he comes back in two weeks.
Here is my prediction:
49-33
7th Seed
Second round exit
AD: 27/10/2blks
Boogie: 24/9/4ast
Jrue: 16/4/ 3ast
Rondo: 7/4/9.5 ast
6th man : Ian Clark 14/1/3ast
CAW CAW!!!!!! Let's go!!!

Yes and only because they are telling Jrue to attack when he gets the ball. The offense is motion so I see Rondo feeding the whole time. He will have to make them pay from three. This team will have to show they can make teams pay for sagging the Defense. -
yeah if he can get more good looks I think they'll do better than people are giving credit for
still no front court duo thats ? wit ours....I see MN giving them the most problems out of all in the paint -

Lets see if Jimmy really that much of a difference because the old squad still couldnt ? with the Pels. This new version still seems suspect. -

? about to start off soon!
Here is my prediction,
Memphis will be emotional and in sync in the season opener, edging us out 87-83 final. The Pelicans has not given me any indication that they are able to defend well, nor pass the ball without Rondo. Hope I'm wrong. Still got us being a dominate team once Rondo and the new guys mesh well. -

Just curious but why is Memphis gonna be emotional? Tony Allen? Lol -

They some hoe ass ? though but you right. -
Man we better pick up Nelson and man wtf is wrong with Holiday? This ? sooooo sorry bruh. Like how can your confidence and swag be off so much?
-
It's just one game and Memphis is always a bad matchup for them so...
A lot to takeaway from it though -
I'm not "trolling" imo pelicans won't make the playoffs they have no spacing/shooting and their wings suck
I'm not that high on the t wolves either I think they won't be anything but a 5-8 seed 1st round exit
You cheap seats cats on here take things too personal
Them rockets fans mocked me when I kept saying they were pretenders who would get exposed last season.then what happened in the playoffs? Lol
I know this game clown, now start looking at potential returns for cousins
-
So Jrue was the killer last night. If he hits his average points production then that is a win.
This team can hold serve in the beginning without Rondo but not without the big 3. AD and Boogie will eat. Jrue and two more bench people have to eat too. Preferably Ian Clark and Etwuan Moore. All they need to contribute is 10 points each. That is 25 points per night from AD and Boogie. 15 from Jrue. 10 points from Ian Clark and Etwuan Moore. After that the other guys and contribute the next 25 points. All of this is within the scoring averages of all the players on the roster.
The Defense is there. So that is not a real concern to me.
I saw a play where Jrue forced the ball to Cousin while the defender was fronting him and pushing him under the goal. At that point, pass the ball around the perimeter to the back side and have Boogie reposition himself. -
i think people are being too easy on the pels. I know its just one game but still.
i honestly didnt realize the lack of depth they had last night
D. Miller ? me off b/c again, he reverted back to his early pelican days. ONE FGA?!?! and his defense was ASS. Got lost on several assignments.
I.Clark came out aggressive early, then just kinda faded
E.Moore, if he's asked to do anything besides catch and shoot, its gonna end in a turnover
As well as Boogie played, he had several mental lapses making stupid cross court passes, and not finding the open man once he started penetrating and the defense collapsed.
Dante gotta hit those open 3s
Jrue gotta be aggressive. I know he wanna move w/o the ball, but he need to dribble with a purpose.
I think AD was just forcing the issue last night. He played a very uncharacteristic game. He channeled his inner Lamarcus Aldridge and was just settling for jumpers. -
Was not impressed last night.
0-1 -
refs played the ? outta us last night several times.....im thinking damn did they take away the timeouts for this?
anyway Jrue was ? up
AD was kinda off....almost looked like he was holding back like he may be playing hurt again and nobody saying ?
I think all the turnovers were mostly just from frustration and good D.....they were gettin bumped around a bit and nobody could really get in rhythm....ball stopped moving way too much....gotta remember Rondo is gonna help with that tho
I dont wanna talk about Alvin......he'll stand over there and argue and cry with the refs but stays in line lol.....ima need him to go ahead and take that tech....toss a clipboard or a chair or sumn....get your team fired up
out here lookin like u ready to take a nap -
