    I'm not even worried about Dame.

    Stotts, yes... I am worried about him.

    For all of Pat's hops, that is twice at the end of games he has been blocked on a dunk attempt. I've never bought the 44" vertical. He never gets anywhere near as high as Clyde did. Drexler must have had a 50+" vertical if Pat's is 44".

    Dame: losing puts some pressure on us; our job is to defend homecourt; one game at a time, win next game

    NOLA had a low score, but we let them shoot 47.7% from the field, so I think we did have a poor defensive game.

    I'll have to watch the play again, but I wonder if there was an outlet to a 3..

    Regardless, dumb to pass it into a guy streaking to the basket if he's not going to pass it out to get the points we needed since we didn't have any TOs

    He literally can’t guard anyone on the Pelicans roster. It’s not his fault. He just can’t. He’s seven feet and slow. If he’s going to be in the game he needs to score a lot more than 11 to justify getting P&R’d every possession.

    He was fine in the 24 minutes he played. He wasn't the problem tonight.
