Both Z n CJ have been ballin their asses off, but they needed HELP
They needed TREY!
IF he can play like he did last night, the Pels can run the regular season table!
Jake wats up with BI? Any updates?
Every dayer
Don't count on Murphy again any time soon he is known for giving a good game then not doing anything for the next few. He need to step in closer and stop trying to hit those Stephen Curry threes.
When it gets to be this time of year, we don’t have time to be inconsistent like we were this season. This is do or die time! these moments are the moments that separate the men from the boys. Go Pelicans!!!!
Zion!!!!!! Where's the jumpers!!!!!!!! Come bro, you would be unstoppable
Every dayer!! 🇵🇭🇵🇭
That is 2great 🎉 win if win get our piant right we can get one!!!😅💰💪
Everydayer! Come on Pels!!!!
Every day
I wonder if ice bath would be a good option for Z. It probably isn't possible for him to be consistent with the super performances not just because he is a big guy but because I have some understanding of how fast twitch muscle respond I imagine Zions body requires considerable recovery as he appears to be composed of nothing but fast twitch 😂 the only comparisons to Zion I can thing of is prime Derek Rose and maybe Allen Iverson these guys just aren't supposed to be able to do what they do. Iverson answer was not to practice hard or at all but that may have made him durable. I think more shooting takes some of the stress off Zions body. When is BI coming back the squad looks really good how big is having Jose back everyone looks better.
It’s triggggggggaaaaaa

I’m just going to say… this whole defense to offense can work and be fun in the regular season but that ain’t going to fly against good teams in a playoff series. How is that not obvious?! Or do we just care about having a good time during the regular season? Small market mindset.
Good win Pels PHX,AZ
Pelicans fly Pelicans fly. !!!
Bless you 😂
Hi Jake
Pels have to get off to a good start and not play the Kings from behind . Cut turnovers, move the ball and take good shots.
This kings game is the most important of the three remaining, could give us serious breathing room for the 6th seed also the Pels staying ahead increases the likelihood that the Warriors or Lakers are locked into the spots and will rest starters against us. Gonna be hella difficult to beat them for a 5th straight game, but if we find a way it would be incredible
