    2-0 never felt so good. First winning streak of the year!

  3. NightmarishDreams420

    we actually have solid 3 point shooters not named Trey now omg

  5. NightmarishDreams420

    Get RJ in New Orleans. Make it happen David

  6. buddha6521256

    Who would’ve thought the pelicans of all teams held a team to below 90 in the 2023 nba

  7. supa14x

    CJ McCollum has 13 assist in the first 2 games. Shout out to our uncle

  8. Pinky1337

    I will hunt down every person that doesn’t have Herb Jones on their all defensive ballot later this year

  9. MrFishAndLoaves

    Gayle likes the Pelicans more confirmed.

    We are truly a a basketball city now.

  10. Briguy_fieri

    Imagine having the “Mecca of basketball” only to get curbstomped by a shotgun house air bnb

  12. awc23108

    I love this team.

    We don’t even have Trey and Jose yet

  13. buddha6521256

    Pels big 3 today: 60/15/12/5 steals

    What a way to show off our defense

  14. rocelot25

    I don’t know what I was thinking last year. Being a Pelicans fan is great, I know only joy

  15. BasketTimely

    Zion/BI combine for 50

    Held them to under 90 points

    Great win!

  16. BubbleGumGuy94

    So looks like Kira and naji might lose their spots, but when Jose and trey get back my gawd! This team is gonna be insane!

    James Borrego, you god!!

  17. buddha6521256

    It’s off topic but imagine being Zach lavine dropping 50 and still losing by 20

  18. SpaceAfricanJesus

    People wanted Zion benched for 1 1/2 missed rotations on defense. Then he goes off in the 2nd quarter and leads us to an 18 point lead which ultimately was too much for the Knicks to come back from.

    Moral of the story: don’t overreact

  19. Wakandaforever456

    I pray for a healthy Zion this season.

  22. buddha6521256

    Our big 3 playing only 30 minutes each in this game and still essentially winning by 20 is a great recipe for an overwhelming health advantage in the playoffs

    Last year part of the reason we fell apart was because Zion and BI had to play too many minutes and do too much with the other hurt

    Now it seems we have a solid 10-12 serviceable players that don’t blow leads if the stars need a rest
