re: Pelicans waive Nate Robinson

I actually agree.

upcoming back to backs

Nov 6-7 (ATL, at DAL)
Nov 10-11 (DAL, at ATL)
Nov 17-18 (DEN, at OKC)
Nov 27-28 (at LAC, at UTH)
Dec 1-2 (MEM, at HOU)

so @DAL, @ATL, @OKC, @UTH, @HOU, ish smith/toney douglas are your PG's for the game

unreal

The schedule makers fricked us hard

FYI, I've seen some speculation that Reke could be back for the 18th.

Brother, the Pels have less back to backs than over half of the league. Only 6 teams have fewer.

that is correct...compared to other west teams pels schedule is pretty significantly easier, on the whole. no question though, that these are at the worst possible time, on top of the GSW/POR/GSW start

Do those teams play as many back to backs in the first month of the season as we do?

Do they open the season versus the defending champs on the road, then play a back to back at one of the best home teams in the league for their season opener, then play their home opener again versus the defending champs?

But seriously, its not the schedule makers fault so much, but our opening schedule is fricking brutal, and that's when all of our players are out.

Those are 5 near-automatic losses with Ish/TD unless Jrue is cleared to play B2Bs or Cole returns from his injury and immediately plays lights out.

Not a fan of this. I hope Nate gets signed by a good team and wrecks havoc on the Pelicans like many of our formers players do. Dude didn't even get a MF chance. Ish has played well but really after 2 games were gonna make conclusions that ish is better than Nate? If we can make those conclusions after 2 games then it shouldn't be wrong for anybody to say the Pelicans are god awful after 2 games. Nate was suppose to be a big locker room guy like Perkins. Makes me sick we're bringing back Tony Douglas.

Do you even watch the games or just talk crap? He was terrible and did not even want to shoot. He played no defense.

Can't have two ball dominant, shot seeking PGs as our only options. Need the ball hawk, poor man's Patrick Beverly back to balance out. Ish/Toney are yin and yang

why didnt we sign Justin Holliday

Because we need point guards, not shooting guards.
