Gotta love the irony here. -No one hates Powell- -long ass post with multiple incendiary remarks about Powell - -No one hates Powell-
Yeah but the guy that posted between the two positive recollections is one of the most inconsistent posters in the forum with the only thing that's consistent about him is that his takes are outrageous and that might be insulting to fans of the word outrageous.
Come on man why so rude? I’m the one who called for this blowup years ago. I’m the only one being positive since this rebuild has started. In fact I can’t wait for the lottery and draft
Listen I've been rude to you plenty of times but if you read the quoted posts in the post I was just replying to, all of that rudeness was aimed at @Mr. Robot . For the record I'm entertained by your contributions even when they piss me off. On the other hand I had to block @Mr. Robot for a period of time because he was saying stuff that was so blatantly toxic but now he's just a minor annoyance because his posts are so nonsensical and like I said inconsistent.
I have to co-sign on this post. Isn't he the pro-Nurk and only Nurk guy who slams on everyone else on the team with a picture of Che Guevara? Yeah, I just checked. Blazerkor is absolutely right. There are posters I dislike more personally because of their behavior, but Mr. Robot is just madness incarnate. He isn't consistent about anything but his unrepentant love of Nurk.
https://www.nola.com/sports/pelicans/article_5fd1fa08-b695-11ec-8d41-7b29d4bd9c8c.amp.html Next week’s win-or-go-home game between the New Orleans Pelicans and San Antonio Spurs will tip off at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday. Valanciunas is expected to play Thursday against the tanking Portland Trail Blazers. He missed Tuesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings with right ankle soreness. Star forward Brandon Ingram is listed as doubtful against Portland with right hamstring tightness.
Wow that's a pretty big game for us. Not too nervous about it but the Spurs winning it sure would put my mind at ease as far as the following Western Conference play in game goes.
I just hope that Murray is getting some run in at their practice facilities or pregame or whatever so he isn't just coming back from that illness without getting his conditioning right and his game warmed up. I actually hope that they play him and everyone else in one or both of the remaining two games, just so they come into the Pels game clicking.
Oh, I know. It was just ironic sequence of events. Thought it was funny. Pretty sure the Mr Robot guy thinks Nurk is better than LeBron James in his prime.
This is good news if they play him. With Cj on the team and Zion coming back that will fuck up their chemistry and get them out of synch
"madness incarnate", ill take that as a compliment usually i like to criticize players, coaches (in any sport) etc and while you dont see it here (cause i like to troll people), i criticize nurk a lot on some other places, some would call it "tough love"
So really this pick can land anywhere between 10 and 12 but it doesn't really matter too much. For it to land at 10 we would either need both the Spurs and Knicks to win out and the Pelicans to lose their last two or the Knicks can lose against Toronto and the Pels can lose their last game and then the Knicks win a coin flip or the Knicks can lose that Raptors game and the Pels can win one and the Knicks win the coin flip. At the same time the Spurs would have to win out and the Pels lose out and the Spurs win the coin flip or the Spurs could win both of their play in games. The eleventh pick would be one of the Knicks or Spurs getting ahead of the Pels or tying them and winning a coin flip. The twelfth pick happens if the Pelicans win both of their last games and the Spurs don't make the playoffs or if they win the coin flips. That's what it's come down to and the only thing that really matters to us now that we're locked into the sixth spot in the lotto. Obviously if the Pels make the playoffs or get extremely lucky in the lotto we lose out on the pick. Let's hope the Pels lose a bunch, not make the playoffs and then May 17th can't come soon enough.
I guess 30 days after the play-in games is not too long to wait, but I would still prefer that they cut that wait time in half. Give the teams (and fans) more time to prepare for the draft.
Wow your right on CJ never missing the playoffs. LeBron has now missed 2 of the last 4 years, and missed his first two.
