Has a player ever had the writing on the wall as obvious as this dude?

Aminu is one of the reasons I still occasionally watch games
The unintentional comedy factor is awesome. Gold, jerry

Yes he needs to be gone

If we didn't have so many injuries that shot by Aminu at the end of the fourth would warrant a couple game son the bench IMO. Get AD the damn ball and know your role.

Rivers + Roberts tonight
27 points on 10/20 fg, 4/6 from 3, 5 rebs, steal, block, 3:2 A/T ratio
They are playing really good.

Recap
A longer quote about what may have been the critical moment in the game.
3rd Quarter Blues:
The Pelicans took over in OT. The Nets finished the game with tired legs. We may have to replace the rims after the abuse they took on the last possession of the game. The sheer number of bricks that they shot in this game probably increased their number of offensive rebounds unnaturally.
quote:
the Pelicans rallied from a 22-point deficit to overtake the East’s hottest team, the Brooklyn Nets. It was the second-largest comeback win in franchise history.
quote:
Evans approached his career high of 35 points by finishing with 33, part of an all-around performance that also included 10 rebounds and seven assists.
quote:
By Davis’ recent standards, he finally played an “average” game, but still registered 24 points and 14 rebounds. He went 9-for-17 from the field and came up with an All-Star-level defensive play in OT, when he grabbed a Mason Plumlee layup attempt out of the air, resulting in a jump ball, then won the ensuing tip.
A longer quote about what may have been the critical moment in the game.
quote:
Morrow was ice-cold early in overtime, missing a couple of weighty shots that could’ve put the Pelicans in great position. Williams decided to sub Morrow out for Luke Babbitt, but referees ruled that Babbitt had not gotten to the scorer’s table prior to the next dead ball. So instead of exiting, Morrow stayed in and canned two crucial three-pointers. The first trey gave the Pelicans a 106-100 lead with 2:37 to go; the latter was a back-breaker for the Nets, making it 109-102 at 1:00. “I told (Williams) ‘good sub’ when he took me out,” Morrow said of initially believing he was coming out of the game. After the trifecta at 2:37, Morrow ran back on defense yelling “I ain’t gonna miss no more!” A smiling Williams: “The Lord blessed us. I was trying to get (Morrow) out of the game, then he comes right back and hits a shot.”
3rd Quarter Blues:
quote:
After a poor first half and an equally sluggish start to the third quarter, the Pelicans trailed 66-44 after only two minutes of action. However, New Orleans outscored Brooklyn 29-10 over the remainder of the third period, cutting its deficit to just 76-73.
The Nets steadied themselves a bit in the fourth quarter, maintaining the lead all the way until the 4:52 mark, when an Evans layup tied the score at 89. Brooklyn had to rally from a five-point hole in the final 1:14 to force OT, but a Plumlee dunk and a Paul Pierce three-pointer created a deadlock at 98.

They were coming off a big win in Dallas so that certainly helped the Pels a great bit. Good win last night.

Nice recap. That was a great second half to watch. Tyreke was on fire. Roberts looked great and won a little of my heart coming back after the hyperextension. Monty got pissed at the refs for the first time this season when Rivers got gang banged with no call. Morrow was fired up as usual. He's super competitive. I liked this part of the article:
We are on fire with AD, Tyreke, and fillers. I hope the chemistry is there when Jrue and Ryno come back. Obviously it adds talent and moves bench players to bench roles, but I hope it doesn't push Davis from the focal point of the offense. That's my only fear about next season. He's showing what he is capable of, we just need to let him do it. Keep on getting him the ball.

I'm with you, but it's tricky. I think you have to be creative and a little unpredictable with your possessions each time down the court. And you need other scorers to score.

That three he drained early in OT was big time. He has his faults, but the guy has ice water in his veins. That shot really seemed to get the ball rolling in OT and we never looked back.
