Speed is better than Die Hard. Artist. Portland born and raised. New Orleans living.
I would encourage Pels fans to start the "Sell-The-Team!" chant starting tomorrow but lol at the idea of Gayle Benson attending a random Pelicans game in November.

Gonna have to deliver this message to her at church I am afraid.
Dallas fans chanting "Fire Nico!" enough that it's actually happening is basically witchcraft, which I mean as a compliment.
BREAKING: The Dallas Mavericks are expected to fire Nico Harrison, sources tell The Athletic.

The former Nike executive drove the decision to trade Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers eight months after Dončić led Dallas to an NBA Finals appearance.

Nico would have to be in witness protection rn had they not lucked out by getting Cooper Flagg
Nico Harrison fired. The Mavs fans get what they want. Except for Luka back on the team

If you combine the records of the first 10 games in each of Willie Green's 5 seasons as HC of the Pelicans it would be 15-35 - A .300 WIN%!!

What are we doing here, Gayle?!?

Here is another issue for Portland: their halfcourt defense.

When they allow opposing teams to get set in their halfcourt offense, the Blazers bleed points. Not enough data for specific 5 man lineups, but I would bet the rotations that give up more points in the halfcourt are the small ball lineups

What's wild is that if (hopefully when) the Pels decide to make the move, Borrego would presumably be the interim.

Wild how almost identical their HC W/L record is as of right now

Everyone not named Gayle Benson and Joe Dumars saw this coming for the Pelicans. I feel so bad for their fans, man.

After a slow start to the season, CJ McCollum over the last 3 games is averaging 30.6PPG while shooting 52% from the field.

Tyler Herro is watching these games in street clothes on the bench and realizing in real time why the Heat haven't given him an extension lol.
November 11, 2025 at 3:42 AM
This Pelicans team is soooooooo far away from being remotely close to even a play-in team.

Joe Dumars, man. Just...ugh.

Jrue has had a few really bad TOs this second half.

Someone check Banchero’s texts after this game. He may have some money on this. Unreal.

Unreal. Blazer fans aren’t used to this feeling.
Holy shit, what a tremendous inbounds play by the Blazers! Tiago Splitter: whiteboard god????
November 11, 2025 at 2:33 AM
What a fucking play call
November 11, 2025 at 2:31 AM
I love Clingan, but the Blazers basically play 4 vs 5 on the offensive end when he’s on the floor.

He’s most useful in the halfcourt offense setting picks at the top for the ball handler. But then the issue is that dude drives and doesn’t have DC as a roll man, so they typically…

The Magic are getting set in their halfcourt defense and the Blazers can’t generate easy looks in their halfcourt offense.
The Magic are making their shots. The Blazers can't hit wide open shots and are losing.

Seems that simple.

Did I miss a Queen injury or something? What’s going on here?
New Orleans Pelicans - Starting - Jeremiah Fears, Herb Jones, Trey Murphy, Saddiq Bey, Kevon Looney

I am not joking when I say this…

But CJ McCollum is really what this Blazers team needs.
November 11, 2025 at 12:48 AM
Shaedon Sharpe’s 3P shot selection is….not good.
November 11, 2025 at 12:39 AM
Magic proceed to go on a 8-0 run the moment I hit post in this.
It’s shocking how booty the Magic’s offense is.

Lesson learned: don’t fight my son Toumani for a rebound.
