This team is special. For them to do this, after that blown 21 point lead, fall behind by 7-8 points, and then come back to win by 7 point. Unbeliveable.
I’m absolutely convinced Willie just puts on “You Gotta Fight” before every game at Staples.
This was not a victory by the Pelicans. This was an escape. I feel like the refeering didn’t help. But still, Pelicans probably should have lost.
Everytime someone posts about the Pelicans being a poverty franchise they’re likelyhood of getting better just goes up and up.

It’s my understanding that Patricia at least displays situational awareness even if his responses to it are shit. Plus he was the Lions’ coach when they drafted their C in Ragnow. So you know what I can at least point to 2 positive things Patricia did in Detroit.
How the fuck did Tyrus Thomas end up being the stable one?
Herb for MVP. He just does so much for this team. It’s Jrue-like.
Fuck it. I said plan Mardi Gras as though the Saints are going to win the Super Bowl.
Again, the Super Bowl is in Vegas, and the comedy…
We do parades and events really well. That’s when the NBA pulled the All-Star game from Charlotte years ago, they gave it to us.
That’d be great in my opnion. The NFC North has always revolved the Packers. Packers-Bears. Packers-Vikings. Packers-Lions. Let’s get some Bears-Lions-Vikings matchups going.
On one hand, that’s the classic Sean Payton r/NFL hates. On the other hand, it’s a good mentality. “We won. Let’s keep it going.”
And about 7 or 8 points came with the game out of reach. It took them 47 minutes to hit the 80 point mark.
The mistake was being willing to pay so much for Paul George. Even if the Clippers hadn’t included their own picks and swaps, you’re still talking about SGA, Gallinari (a large expiring), and three firsts.
Granted, two MIA firsts and a PHI first were probably presume to top out at the mid-20s, but at some point, the Clippers needed to point out to Kawhi “Look, if we pay any more to trade your running mate, we’re just not going to have enough around you.”
What else can he say? He’s seen the rest of the rotation fight its way back from 3-16 to the playoffs with Zion missing the entire season. You still have to take it from Denver and Golden State as far as I’m concerned.
As a homer: Kira Lewis Jr. and Dyson Daniels.
Around the league? Cade. After missing so much time last season, I thought it might take a few games for him to get back into form, but his season opener should put those doubts to rest.
We need to be able to respond to other team’s runs without them making a mistake. The Grizzlies ripped off that run.
There’s really nothing this team can do any more to surprise me. But a road win vs. Memphis to start the season would be a nice opening note.
Not in New Orleans thank god. Maybe the only team that hasn’t.
Didn’t he also go on to be a US Senator?
