    What game are you watching?
    I watched the one where they lost their 10th game in a row after being down by 30 points.

    I mean, the Warriors are an absolutely atrocious road team.

    So Norm Powell is a 6th man candidate? Why did we start him when he’s better on the 2nd unit?

    More recently, we beat the nuggets in a series. Who gives a shit, and how is it relevant?

    Wtf were we thinking letting go of Powell. I always loved his game. If he would’ve accepted 6th man role here like he has an LA it would be so nice to bring in a guy off the bench like that.

    We lost any kind of depth we had in those trades last year

    injuries, but they've been worse than just injured. 3-15 over their last 18 games. 8-19 over their last 27 games. From 11 games over.500 to 1 game under.500 in a month

    I was watching the game where the Pelicans were getting dominated by 30 points until Luka left with an injury in the 3rd and still ended up losing their 10th in a row.

    Actually no. We started Powell out of position at the 3. Which was dumb.

    Yep. That tanking is mathematically the best option.

    There was a time early in the season where you looked at the Pelicans and couldn’t help but feel that they were in the absolute best spot in the league. They were playing well, Zion was playing at an All-NBA level and CJ looked good. The Lakers were struggling big time and that lottery pick swap was looking Wembenyama-ry.

    Now, their 2 best players can’t stay healthy and may never stay healthy. CJ has looked like, well CJ but with a big extension. Herb Jones hasn’t looked as effective as he did last season. And that Lakers lottery pick may not be as good as thought.

    remember, the Pels don't just get the Lakers pick. They have to swap. And as of tonight, they'd be swapping the 13th pick for the 10th pick

    The Clippers could really use someone like Mike Conley.

    The Clippers 4th quarter offensive execution looked very Blazery. Now I know where Chauncey got his offensive philosophy from.
