We might win this but man I do not like the direction we are going in
We are having to scrape and claw just to get back to down 11 to an underwhelming pelican team without their best two players. What’s not to like about that direction?

Suns had 14 turnovers in first half. They play like they don't practice together.

I suspect Willie Green had a lot to do with the Suns success.

Isn’t that what I kinda said?
I think it generally is viable, but not the way Booker takes it. If it was a speedster that grabs the ball and pushes for penetration and a layup or foul, yeah it is viable. Or you push it and if the shot is there take it, if not pull it out and get a good shot. With book it is always predetermined he’s taking it, it is always a deep 3, and he always misses it. So I guess my answer is: yea it’s viable, unless it’s book.

Last game Monty said something at halftime and we fired out of the locker room and powered through the third quarter.

This team should be self motivated. Monty shouldn't have to get on them.

I think it's hard for them to be motivated after playing in the Finals. Regular games just are not the same. Hopefully they will snap out of it.

They aren’t going to even make the playoffs playing the way they have been.

I'm not buying that anymore. The effort has to be there for 48 minutes.

Pelicans open 2nd half with a lay-up.

CP3's face looks like he's not into it tonight. Just the look on his face.

Booker needs get some close-in shots to find a rhythm.
