re: Jose re-evaluated in 2 weeks

Has it?

Yea

Don't get me wrong, he's a solid player. But there's just something about him when he's on the court, we win our minutes over and over. I know my initial post was defensive related, but I also mean overall. He just wins when he's on the court.

And the sample size is 2 seasons and a good bit of minutes to think it's not all that random.

He has a ton of deficiencies, but whatever he does, we win minutes when he plays.

Fair notice- I haven’t looked at advanced metrics on this so I could be completely off. But I didn’t feel like our defense took this big dip when he got injured and I love Jose.

It was something like 110 Drtg when he's on vs 114 when he's off. It was if I recall something like equivalent of 2nd best defense when he played and 17th best when he was off.

And the season before, the difference was 7 points in Drtg better when he plays. I don't know how he does it, but he just does it lol.

I agree with you he is this teams X-factor. I think part of his efficiency on defense is how he also provides his efficiency on offense. I feel like his plus/minus is great with guys like CJ and Zion. Theres no one on this roster that can provide his efficiency as a PG. He’ll be missed but I’m hoping Kira can help with the offense and more minutes for Dyson will help our defense. But we’ll miss him on that random wednesday back to back night when energy is literally flat and Jose basically gets this team to compete again.

Oschner is the problem. New Orleans as a whole is subpar when it comes to healthcare

What scares me into thinking this could be more than 2 weeks is they sent him to a specialist. He's been an NFL doctor for a few decades with an apparent focus on foot and ankle injuries.

---

My first thought when I saw that was they are worried about the stress reactions from last year

Dyson should get most of these minutes, but I bet for some absurd reason that they go to Kira instead.

2 weeks!

Well at least we can keep the same team slogan from last year

REEVALUATED in 2 weeks.

He was injured I believe 5 weeks ago today.

So that's 7 weeks before he's even revaluated, for an ankle sprain.

So likely at least 8-10 weeks for him to play total.

Unreal

Only happens to the Pelicans. We're a complete loser franchise.

I think your letting your Saints disappointment leak onto the pelicans board. It’s frustrating but lets them play a couple regular season games first.
