re: CJ and TM3
Posted by Fleur de Diable on 4/16/24 at 8:01 pm
Each have had catch a shoot opportunities. And CJ has taken three horrible pull up threes. One was right after a Zion screen where they got Reaves switched onto Zion. For a veteran, who some consider cerebral, you would think he'd know to take advantage of such a favorable matchup instead of shootin...
re: Kyren Lacy Statistics
Posted by Fleur de Diable on 12/20/23 at 10:19 am
You’re combining his stats from UL. But, if he does become the all time leader in all three stats next year, he’ll have the best receiving year ever. So, let’s hope it happens....

[quote]we've still allowed a bit more points in the paint than I'd like to see[/quote]
We’re at 41.3 ppg allowed in the paint. Good for second in the league. If we kept that up for a whole season, it would rank as a top five unit, 4 of the last 5 years....

Posted by Fleur de Diable on 12/28/20 at 10:08 am
Just guessing that it's SVG trying to learn his guys. I would say you need to feel comfortable with your team in order to "frick around". Of all the 9 new coaches, I'd say he may have the biggest question marks, besides Silas in Houston.
Everyone else either knows that they're dealing with a con...
re: Anyone else notice once Adams went to the bench in the 4th we couldn't make a shot?
Posted by Fleur de Diable on 12/25/20 at 8:34 pm
4 for 11 and 3 FTAs(without Adams) vs 2 of 9 and 2 FTAs (with Adams) but okay.
The issue of the fourth quarter with him on the court or off the court was turnovers....

No I didn’t. Because they weren’t making shots before he went to the bench. They were 2 for 9 on their field goals before Adams sat down with 5:50 left in the fourth. ...

re: Brandon Ingram, how tall do y’all ACTUALLY think he is?
Posted by Fleur de Diable on 12/15/20 at 11:45 pm
The NBA sent officials to take heights for every player(without shoes) last year so that they could end that foolishness. The only Pelican who changed was Zion from 6’7 to 6’6. And just judging off pics alone, I’d say it’s pretty easy to just say that the 6’7 for BI is probably accurate.
As far...

re: Pelicans' rookie Kira Lewis Jr. is a student of the game
Posted by Fleur de Diable on 11/30/20 at 3:45 pm
I can accept that criticism of the my argument. I should have simply said being drafted at 13 doesn’t guarantee him anything. Griff has stated multiple times the type of culture they’re trying to create. Getting playing time because of draft status isn’t a part of that and if NAW beats him out as t...
re: Pelicans' rookie Kira Lewis Jr. is a student of the game
Posted by Fleur de Diable on 11/30/20 at 12:43 pm
Langdon said in his post draft interview that he could foresee Lewis competing for minutes this year, but they got him because they thought he had the highest upside of anyone available. Their eye is on the future.
This was widely accepted as a weak draft. Being drafted at 13th, in a down year, d...

The snap count numbers are out and old Two Firsts played 62% of the snaps compared to Trey playing 19%. So I don’t think he’s lost anything to Trey. Any more observations?...

L-O-F*CKING L. The NBA draft as a whole is a crapshoot. Yes, there are years where you get a Lebron, Carmelo, Bosh and D-Wade, but there's a reason that was a special draft. This draft could turn out to be that and we end up looking like the Pistons with Darko, but the point of this post is that n...
