And I bought myself a city edition hoodie🫤
It’s crazy and sad that a rookie that hasn’t been playing basketball very long is now their most efficient player.
Missi is the bright spot in the terrible start to the season.
Missi is a rare positive for this dumpster 🔥 team….😢
happy to see missi develop solid chemistry with murray
Just think there were those saying the Pels need a center some was even saying the Pels should have kept Valanclunas 😅 at this stage of his career he can out play Valanclunas. The only thing on this team close to Valanclunas is Theis with those lazy hand offs turn overs. Missi is the center for this team. Murphy sucks he plays soft why is he holding conversation with the other team players during the game. Trade him along with Zion and Hawkins and get some real shooters that got some dog in them
Looking at the schedule they could lose every game until the Wizards on 1/3/25!
Thanks for Dyson and those picks! 🤝
Jake, you deserve better than this crap. The fans do, too.
Tank you, tank you so much Pelicans for the loss. Just keep losing & maybe we can get out of this purgatory thru the draft. Lets geaux.
Look, I'm gonna need TREY MURPHY to be the consistent 20 point scorer we PAID him to be…
That is all..
That is my post!!!
Someday one of these media people has to ask why Karlo is not getting a chance to play. Everybody was excited about him after Summer League and he plays good in the G League. Imagine having a young defensive and offensive big next to each on this team. Ask the Pelicans and let the people know whats going on Jake.
Lol bro just start the video off natural, whats up with them weird forced smiles 😂
Missi gone be the real deal. 💯
We should trade Missi for a vet center so we can be true contenders. We alr have vets all around besides at center.
Fire Willie Green
Every dayer comment
Dyson looked awful, I’m glad we have Dejounte over him
Why is our transition D bad. Simple we don’t get to the FT line, we shoot 31% from 3, and we try and crash the offensive boards to make up for bad shooting. This leaves us vulnerable to transition buckets
Missi > Matkovic but some of y’all idiots still asking for Karlo lmao if he ain’t playing now he never will Theis and jemison playing before him just shows how bad he is
Trade Zion asap keep BI Trey need to step up for the money he is getting
Mr. Erry Dat'rr👈🏾 Thanks Jake!! In Yves we got exactly what we were looking for in a starting center for this group. Excited about his development as he keeps surprising me. Really wish we still had Freddie V to help develop his shot in yrs 2 – 3 though. Still hoping for this to be a gap year. #TankPelsTank
If Missi continues to grow as a traditional center, how compatible will he an Z be?
They looked completely gassed when Atl pulled away in the 4th. Having 4 more rotation players would have made a big difference.
