The team is still good and will make the playoffs if we can get all of our players back in time. We need to play Missi when we play teams with a good center. Stay away from the small ball lineup. Play Jemison or Matkovich.
Let Missi play and get experience at this time. It will help at the latter part of the year. Nobody played good defense against the Cavs.
In between Jordan Hawkins and Brandon Boston, how does one even justify paying Trey Murphy that type of money?😂😂😂
Whether Missi play or not nobody is playing defense. Cavs played with 2 big men we went small. Please bring the coach that Milwaukee fired last year. That coach was 30-13 before being fired.
My team everyday 🍿
Great comp for BJ Boston. I think Kev Martin is fair. He has a better looking form tho 🤣
Do you have any idea when our main players will be able to return to the court? Approximately educated guess.
Yes, lets now focus on the no names, cause everyone youve heard about is either injured, or a head case. Haaaa
Green is a bad coach 😢
These 4th quarter collapsed are starting to remind me of a recent coach that just got fired🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
bruh by time ppl get healthy the season gon be over…. we as a fan base is tired of nola sports
I hate to say it but Willie Green time is up.
Trade Trey Murphy and get something barely decent for center position
Willie getting out coached every night, for 3 years straight. All this talk of the injuries? In the words of Charles Barkley, “Stop it.” The effort level is embarrassing, outside of Boston & maybe GTA. No excuse for that. The team is soft as hell, awful in the second half. It’s not ONLY the injuries, it’s also Willie.
Brandon Ingram is a turn over machine. I don't care how many points he scores, he kills the offense with his casual ball handling and lazy passes. I still would like to see him traded.
Boston did well against the Magic. Missi and the rest of the Pels took the night off. Once again Zion not available.
Oh man we definitely didn’t need that Jonas Valecunius….he was only a walking double double and made 6 3’s in one game….but he can’t hit the 3……..it’s hard to overcome injuries in basketball…..
How can we make the most out of Zion? 6 years in and it’s still a mystery.
Zion had mri. Out indefinitely again. This team is a hospital ward.
With all due. This kid has always had the pedigree to be an All-Star, and to many a disappointment as he hasn’t developed faster than hoped, but it seems he’s ready. He’s no bench player, he’s go-to. His defense is very legit (I wouldn’t say elite, but close), along with 50/40/90… cmon now. Lest we forget when he was drafted.. (and thought of as a steal).
Still every dayer
