    Great win. Won without Ingram and being down 20+. This will greatly affect their confidence going forward.

  2. poorwhitecash

    I never doubted them 😬. Beat a good team on the road. It was ugly, but credit where credit is due, gg Pels.

  3. IHaveNoFiya

    That ending was trash, but a 22 point comeback is nothing to be ashamed of. Great win.

  4. Savings-Bird-1226

    Shout out CJ. Horrible HORRIBLE loss by the thunder

  5. Get that CJ hate out of your mouth. This man is dangerous.

  6. AnEmptyKarst

    I can’t believe we came back from that

    I also can’t believe we came back from that, almost blew it, then pulled through for the win

  7. zekeboy_300

    GGS BIGGEST COMEBACK IN THE NBA THIS SEASON 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

  8. Ciccone7

    22 pt comeback. 11pt 4th Q blown lead. Still got the win. Regular Pels experience.

    In all seriousness Hawkins and Kira’s energy gets the MVP for me tonight. Despite the score they never stopped playing hard. Much better 2nd-4th. Lets just forget that 1st ever happened.

  9. Existing-Sell-3675

    Don’t know how they pulled that out when they missed 5 clutch freethrows. It was more of the Thunder playing horrible and not taking advantage of it. Also, absolutely terrible rotations to finish the game. Almost like Willie was trying to sabotage it by putting no spacing next to Zion. Why not finish the game with JV, who they had no answer for? They were up 10 and then he went with his anti-spacing units.

  10. Aromatic-Macaron3783

    BI better play tomorrow. If not I’ll be upset and still watch it.

  11. UnimpressedAsshole

    shooters gonna shoot and I’m glad Hawkins is a shooter even if he had a rough game

    this young man has a ton of offensive potential

  12. Briguy_fieri

    The pelicans have a lifetime winning record on nights when I eat pasta.

    Tonight I ate orzo.

    Thank me later

  13. JV played 21 minutes, Willie really does hate this man

  14. BEAUTIFUL. I love a 22 point comeback into Greta close out without BI. CJ without injury is hitting different and I’m pumped for hawk and love herby jone so much. Pumped for this squad again this year now BI get better soon

  15. SpaceAfricanJesus

    Sometimes you just gotta take the money and run. This was one of those nights.

  16. Infinite_Response113

    We beat a more or less healthy division rival on the road without BI, TM3, or Jose.

    Who cares if we won ugly lol

  17. shahsnow

    Herb was huge, had whoever he was guarding on lock. Hawkins continue to show his value, I loved his energy in the first half.

    I understand Zions frustration but I need him to move on from those bad no calls and let Willie fight those battles for him, so he can get back on D.

    Hopefully BI is back tomorrow.

    Flock up!

  18. Units4ever

    Shout-out to cj McCollum, not only his shot making but his playmaking, ball handling, defense, rebounding.

    Jv and Larry were outstanding tonight as well.

  19. Interesting_Quit5612

    Heart rate through the roof tonight being a Pels and Rangers fan

  20. Mesame121489

    Great win and none of that “oH tHeY dOnT dEsErVe To WiN” bullshit.

  21. viacavour

    Truly impressive how they flipped it around. Hopefully we get some good news with BI tomorrow.

  22. Julep2005

    We found their kryptonite and it’s bigs, oh and also ballers named CJ FLOCKIN MCCOLLUM

  23. Mesame121489

    David Griffin better be in the league’s ear about their shit refs.

  24. I thought Hawkins was supposed to be a 1-dimensional shooter. Nice to see him contribute with 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals as well.

  25. Pels matchup interestingly well with OKC. I know they eliminated us last year but that was without Jose and Zion, and with WG doing war crimes with the rotation

  26. I would limit Zion’s minutes tomorrow to 15-20 and make BI play. Detroit just lost today against the horrible Portland team. Finishing 2-0 this B2B would be huge

  27. Zion got absolutely mauled all night and got almost no calls
