Tobias ducked up his knee. Dude looked to be in great shape

League is on alert. Missed a ton of FT and 3s and still dominated the game. Davis and Asik are lethal. Asik guarding the rim allows davis to roam. Anyone that says Davis isn't top 3 in the league is a boomtard

You sure it was his knee? Looked like a cramp IMO.

I'm surprised with the dud by Parsons.

He went up and came down holding his knee from what it looked like. Could be wrong though, I was on the other side of the floor

Orlando, son. But they looked really impressive. Pretty much what I said a couple of days ago. Not a great shooting team but defense will be elite.

17 point win after going 4-17 from 3 (24%) and 15-31 from FT (48%). They will not come close to shooting that bad.

Opening night for a core that hasnt played together. I dont really care about the opponent, it's just encouraging.


Really should've won by 30.

his points + rebounds only outpaced his assists by 1

He was grabbing the back of his leg.

FT shooting obviously won't remain that bad, but it was a huge problem for them last year also. They'll definitely be an interesting bunch.

Yeah I saw on twitter they said cramps. He played a lot of minutes.



As for the FTs, AD, Gordon and Anderson missed a few. I expect the other guys to be inconsistent from the line, but not them.

Davis was bred for bball; he is so long. Everyone else is going to be able to gamble defensively knowing that fricker is roaming the court.

Davis is so active and plays do hard. It's awesome to watch

Asik is quick as frick too and moves well for his size. Great effort too that I haven't seen from 2 big men in nola before

Okay I wasn't expecting Ariza to hit more 3s than rebounds and assists.

Also, I think my Carlos Boozer stock just went up.

Sucks for Randle (and owner)

Couldn't watch the game overseas but I'm just picturing AD helicoptering all over the lane and baseline clearing out drives. He had to alter at least a dozen other shots right?

Actually it's quite the opposite. He just swats everything around him. Most of his blocks come from midrange jump shots where the shooter thinks he's out of his reach.

Pels had 19 blocks and 11 steals. Defense was elite.

Will definitely need to shoot better. I think at one point we had 46 of 54 points in the paint.
