Btw I believe the Pelicans will beat the Warriors on Saturday. The Pels at home is a different team. Plus our home opener against a team that will assume that we will be a cake walk? Win

If you watched the game, our defense played aite, but Curry made our defense look horrible. He was contested, and still drained threes on us.And it doesnt help that he can pass amazingly. Dude ? embarrassed us bruh. -

C.J. McCollum embarrassed us too, I can't seem to differentiate here buddy. -
We suck man we ? suck.
I know it's only 3 games but damn smmfh -

Lol hang in there y'all. We played the champs back twice. Won't see them hoes until March again. Our next couple games should bring us back to regular schedule programming.
If y'all didn't watch the game, but check the stats and seen the score board it would look really bad. However, I walked away from the game ? and hopeless as usual win we facing Curry smh, but more optimistic with the system. Players are getting healthy, and it was even mentioned that Pondexter and Cole who are our heart and soul will be returning real soon. Also the passing is improving, and it took the Celtics 10 games in Erman system to get adjusted, but when they did they went from 23 to 11 in the NBA in defense.
This will be the HARDEST part about our season, getting adjusted and finding our lane. But once we do, and get healthy and find AD spots we will be a hard team to stop. -
Oh I'm riding with them no matter what. I just don't like all these points being given up. I just thought a little extra would have brought when they played GSW esp since they swept us last year. I just want the chemistry there and if we face them again to be ready in the playoffs.
-
@sliverfoxx, stop making so much sense brah...lol
agree 100% with Silver. How can you establish any sort of consistency, trust, or chemistry when your core group of guys are all out at the same time then you bringing in dudes off the street and expect them to pick up a system like Erman's in a week? lulz
Then they played GS twice in 3 games. Steph Curry was the MVP for a reason. Thats just what he does. And CJ Mccollum is finally playing like the player they hoped he would be when they drafted him 3 years ago. It was just a good game by him. Why dont people like to give credit to the other team? -
And it continues, 30 points to Evan Fournier 0_o
-
Sigh ......
No comment man
-
Difficult and depressing
-
TBH im gonna go ghost yall until we win a damn game. Im predicting us to lose to ATL by 35 on Friday. AD is frustrated, but he playing like a paid ? ? right now. He gotta stop starting games so lackadaisical and play high energy like he usually do.
Overall our team is filled with low IQ players that will take maybe 20 games to grasp this system. -
BTW if any ? come at me or the Pels in the NBA thread im gonna do absolutely nothing about to their ? ? . Absolutely nothing bruh because i just,,,,,,,,,cant.

The entire team is playing uninspired basketball but Anthony stands out the most. I don't think they're responding to Alvin Gentry which doesn't surprise me since that's been the problem for him everywhere he's been the head coach. Til this day I still don't understand how the the hell this team could come outta of training camp with so many damn injuries? For half the team to be injured in training camp is just completely unheard of.
That right there should've been the indication to everybody that this season is gonna be a complete disaster. We play in the Western Conference, you can't start out the season terribly and still expect to make the playoffs in the Western Conference, there's too many good teams. -
Trash

Wouldn't be surprised to see Gordon and Anderson expiring contracts moved at the trade deadline in the mist of this disastrous season. There's no way in hell this team should overpay Eric Gordon for average production in the offseason. We need to find a taller 2 guard who can actually defend his position 1st while still being able to space the floor. Paying Eric Gordon $15+ million a year just to average less than 15 points a game just wouldn't make any sense and would ? future salary cap space to improve the team.
-
Trashboat.
We need a real 2 guard -
Nic Batum expires at the end of this season and is a realistic target I think this team should try and target in the offseason. He defends and stretches the floor and we could play him at the three, move Tyreke back to the 2, and keep Jrue at the 1 for more season until his contract expires at the end of that year. That's length, competent 3 pt shooting between Jrue and Batum, and defensive ability on the perimeter to be able to competently compete against the perimeter heavy teams of the West like Golden State and Oklahoma City.
-
I am not giving up yet. The team still wants to run a traditional offense while Gentry came here to push it. He needs to adjust his scheme a little to conform to the players.
-
On offense, I came around and don't necessarily think it's the system that's the problem, it's the team collectively not converting on open looks. You combine players missing wide open shots and turnovers along with horrendous perimeter defense and you get the results of a team that appears headed towards the lottery, which I don't necessarily think is a bad way for this team to try and acquire more talent considering we appear to be stuck in mediocrity and slowly regressing.
-
Progress man.
We gotta build off this for tommorw in Dallas. Hopefully we can finally bring it in.
