It was a fun watch. Im excited to watch Fears and Queen play.
Every day
Zion body looks good but i can tell he's not in game shape yet, itll take him about 2 weeks to get into game shape
It's gonna be a good year for us!!! Just gotta stay healthy!
We need to swap Hawk for Peavy for that second unit, Hawk needs to pump fake more though…
Pelicans have an interesting team. Think the media and league fans undervalue the Pels. BTW solid host & good show. Good luck this season / Rockets fan
Another great show, thanks Jake! Can’t wait to see this revamped team, with Queen, Fears, Poole, etc. ⚜️
Herb Jones is the weak link his defense is not that dominant. His lack of offense hindering the offense.
Played well, some issues that come be sorted over time, looking good 🏀🇬🇧
I love it that they didn't give up. Fears played great!
Give fears Hawkins minutes.. Hawkins has not shown the growth you would like in 3 years
Every dayer
Starting frontcourt of ZM, 3M3, and YM had a total of 12 defensive rebounds. Second chance points allowed is going to kill this team this year. We may have to insert Bey in the starting unit and move 3M3 or ZM to the backcourt.
Personally, I would offer Denver Hawk (maybe even GTA) to get JV back (Steven Adams sure works for Houston). Then again, JV would probably not want us. He certainly was undervalued by this coaching staff.
Great analysis. Very exciting to see what Fears can do and his potential
Off topic… man my eyes hurt this orbing from Trying to watch the Gulf Coast Sports broadcast… wholly pixels Batman! I hope the regular season broadcasts are better. I tried the broadcast in both Cable AND antenna….on two different tv’s/HD projector (that never have definition issues) and both looked like dog- 💩. Antenna being slightly better. I know it’s preseason but last year it was bad too. We deserve better!!!! Ok that’s my rant. But if we don’t say anything this won’t get better!! 🙏
Hi Jake
Looking fwd to this season
Especially the rotation usage! Hope they healthy enough when Queens and Murray returns to increase depth!
Every dayer comment
In the 3rd quarter when the Rockets were scoring the reason we got behind wasn't bc/we wasn't hustling it was bc/ we couldn't get anything to fall in the net and they did..
Our rebounding wasn't horrible we had 14 offensive reb they had 16..we had 32 def rebounds they had 34..not bad at all!!
Oh fears is showing talent? Willie Green will squander it
Where was Shumate, why was Herb shooting so much dropping 1 out of 6 shots Should have been playing more defense and rebound where`s the coaching. Get rid of Willie immediately
Trey Murphy still respects his ideals to much! Dude really needs to become a killer. He never shows up against other Stars and legends who are on the backside of their nba careers
Let’s face it Jeremiah Fears should be a starter for the pelicans no doubt
I can’t wait to see queen added to this team this team is going to be amazing let’s go Pelicans
The pelicans are so much better without Cj McCollum they are going to be a good team this year and they are going to make the playoffs no doubt
The pelicans drafted some dogs to play with Zion
