    Pels make wide open 3s in crunch time challenge

    Herb can’t even be in the game down the stretch or teams can just leave him wide open. It’s gotten pretty disheartening to see his confidence fall so far.

    Meanwhile, Trey has the shortest leash on the team and gets like no attempts anymore lol. Idk if it’s Willie not drawing plays for him or Trey not trying to move off-ball or both but he deserves to be more involved.

    We need Zion back.

    Onto Milwaukee where we are sure to have a grand ‘ol time.

    This team is so cooked man, and theyre squatting on all these assets while the assets get less valuable overtime. The way things are going theirs gonna be no need for a pick swap with the Lakers.

  3. j_palazzolo

    From first to potentially play-in over the course of a month. This fucking sucks.

  4. Pinky1337

    Remember if youre worried about this youre being a fucking idiot and also no one can be traded cause the chemistry is so great

  5. SevenHunnet3Hi5s

    play kira. doubt he’ll be a difference maker or even be much better but at least i’ll be more entertained in these losses. i am sick of watching graham play all these minutes doing nothing

  6. Cbeauski23

    We have too many people on this team that don’t contribute

  7. I truly love BI but honestly I am really disappointed with his level of dedication, leadership, and play this season

  8. afriendlyspider

    The *only* untouchable names on this roster are Zion Lateef Williamson.

  9. Smurkioo-

    26-24 with the Bucks Nuggets Mavs and Lakers coming up. We really might be 26-28.

  10. WeirwoodThrone

    I feel like every game I watch is an exact replay of the last one. Just insert a different opponent.

  11. legend023

    I haven’t watched a pelicans game that extensively in a while and I also haven’t had such a gloom outlook for the pelicans since 1-12 or the Knicks game in 2021

    It was THAT bad

  12. SpaceAfricanJesus

    0-4 in the city edition jerseys

    This team needs a trade, but keep y’all “vibes” takes going.

    Also, Willie Green is looking like a complete and utter fraud without Zion. Someone’s gotta say it.

  13. BobMarleynthewhalers

    Willies downfall is relying heavily on vets cause “vets must play” and failing to make quicker adjustments. Seeing the same thing over and over from games to games is becoming very hard to watch.

  14. DankSinatraSr

    Strap in y’all, it’s not getting any better any time soon.

  15. Lopsided-Ad-8437

    We struggle shooting the 3 again. It’s the SVG years all over again.

  16. AnotherStatsGuy

    This team thinks it can flip a switch in the 4th Quarter. It can’t. And once again, it’s all hands on deck.

    And with Zion (and Dyson) out, this is the exact same configuration you had down the stretch last year. So do it again.

    Yes, that includes Jaxson starting.

  17. Having Jonas probably would’ve put us with the win this game, but I mean…we look BAD

  18. ArrowGantOne

    Well that sucked and me freezing my ass off up here for tomorrow’s game on my birthday is looking like a really bad idea at the moment. Maybe they can have a night when everyone is on fire from 3 and the Bucks rack up fouls. After tonight, if they lose, I know it won’t be me jinxing them. Go Pelicans!

  19. UnimpressedAsshole

    Trey and Herb have been immensely disappointing especially the past month

    This team needs to get its focus right and stop the mindless sloppy turnovers

    We’ve lost our fight and hunger to claim loose balls and missed shots

    Our offense really struggled from a persistent lack of guys cutting to the hoop, and a lack of people crashing the offensive glass. On top of that, we take a lot of shots with nobody in position to get an offensive board.

  20. Remember that “Pels started 3-16”….they could very easily match that by the beginning of Feb. David Griffin needs to make some moves and this team needs to get their heads out of their ass.

  21. Razor-Ramon-Sessions

    Only being able to make 8 – 3 pointers in an NBA game is a major problem. Our shooting is legitimately a problem and Griffin can’t keep waiting to get a shooter. Tae didn’t work out and Jaxson is a porject we don’t have time to keep working on. Both need to be packaged with picks for a shooter.

  22. flockedown

    Dyson needs to replace herb as a starter once he gets healthy. Willie Green is suspect. This team needs a trade and a shooter bad.

  23. lmao12367

    Also watching Herb become unplayable is so sad

  24. Select-Hearing-9298

    Whatever happened to “Pels stacked. League f*cked.” Guess not so stacked. Herb – nothing. Trey – nothing. Graham – nothing. Larry – nothing. Can’t watch tomorrow. Would have to be a masochist.

  25. Senor_Pug

    I’m trying to be positive guys but it’s really fucking hard right now.

  26. It takes some time to let BI back to his normal game. Hope it won’t take too long before we drop to play-in position or even worse

  27. SpaceAfricanJesus

    Zion had this team #1 in the west.

    Saying that out loud is getting more mindblowing with every passing day.

  28. LuthorNZ

    I think this is the game I realised Willie Green isn’t going to change. Griff has to make the change for him, because we can’t keep playing like this and sleepwalking into the 10th seed.

  29. LuthorNZ

    Excited to see Willie come out in the post-game press conference and say this is just a natural part of the season and we’ve just gOt To WoRk ThRoUgH iT.

    Everyone has their annual 7 game skid, right?

  30. _Wado3000

    Tonight the spirit of the team was off the majority of the time, I couldn’t even say that last year with the disastrous start. I can only point to roster construction and coaching.

    Honestly I never believed in the “deepest team in the league” thing. That would’ve been predicated on all of our young players taking a leap, and health being on our side. Truly believe off this game that David Griffin will be looking for a trade. Tae, Jax, Temp, Willy, any combination of them can go. Equip picks as necessary

    Willie Green needs to change the way he does things. I don’t expect constant greatness, but I genuinely believe he deserves more blame than any one player at this point. We’re a talented team even without Zion, there’s no way to explain away all these L’s. A trade will force his hand at least.

  31. maejor_ced

    Told y’all. I love the pelicans as much as anyone but a bunch of y’all in here was delusional asf when Zion went down. Down voting any one that said dark times are ahead left and right. New Orleans will be under.500 when ASG arrives. The only saving grace is NOLA have a easy schedule relatively after the break

  32. Excited to see how the team is down 15 the whole game tomorrow, get it close to finish and lose on some CJ Hero ball or something like that

  33. It sucks because he looked so promising but i would trade Herb for a good scorer or rim protector

  34. Taker597

    Sitting on this roster in the off-season was clearly a bad move when there was obvious needs.
