Pelicans @ Suns Friday game thread 10-28-2022

[Mainstreet]

Lets slide Ayton to PF, for one or 2 games against good teams.
He WANTS to play that 4 spot, its something deep down inside that pulls him to the 4, its his destiny. And there's not a 4 in the league that could guard him for 40.
Bonus: We still have a VERY competent center in JOCK to hold the fort down while in the learning process. And backups in Dario and Bizznatch.
Extra Bonus: DA turns into the next better Tim Duncan. Jock becomes to expensive for us to afford but we do it anyway because our new owner just doesn't give a ****.
We solve our NAGGING CRAPPY PF problem and our Center position takes little to no hit at all.
Now all we have to do is trade Chowder for a PG that can bring 7 to 10 assists a game, he doesn't even have to have those numbers before because Oliver Miller could get 7-10 assists with Booker and the other monsters on this team.
Make it happen you ninnies.

Yeah I'd give Ayton a shot at power forward as it may create some problems for the opposition and Jock at the high post a try. Jock has done very well and particularly in that last game with 17 point & 7 rebounds but 4 games into season I just need to see a larger sample of success. I do think Jock has some fire within him as he's been a bright spot for the team.

Tonight could be the night where Ayton and Landale see the court together.

I want Zion on that court. Interested to see how we’re tested with him there, especially after the series they gave us last year.

Here is the latest on the Pelicans injury situation.

Looks like Zion is OUT.

[Chaplin]

Welp no excuses here. No Ingram, no Zion. We better win this game.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Looks like Zion is OUT.

[Mainstreet]

Here are the starters.

[Dr. Jones]

Will we be out rebounded by 20?

 

[Mainstreet]

Mark West is on pregame. He looks like he can still play.

 

[Mainstreet]

It's scary to think about if the Pelicans had drafted Ja Morant instead of Zion.

 

[Dback Jon]

Is that Jose Alvarado?

Yes

 

[Mainstreet]

Almost game time.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns win the tip and Booker lays the ball in.

 

[Mainstreet]

Ayton with the flush on the fast break.

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns are running tonight and lead 10-3.

Timeout.

 

[Chaplin]

Gawd I love those unis.

 

[Dback Jon]

Love the ball movement

[Dr. Jones]

Those uni's are everything I wanted. Just..... Somehow give me that old sunburst before I die.

So much fire

 

[Dback Jon]

Love the ball movement

And they immediately go away from that.

 

[Dback Jon]

And just like that New Orleans takes the lead

 

[Dback Jon]

Shots are just going in and out

 

[Mainstreet]

Suns have gone cold.

 

[Dback Jon]

Bridges hurt on a dirty play by McCollum that was not called
