Bruno recalled from D-League already.

 

Demar is also likely to return on Jan 8th.

 

What was really gained by sending Bruno down for 3 games? Is there something about sending guys down and bringing them back up after a certain amount of games that gives them an advantage later?

Not sure really. He apparently has a good work ethic so it isn't really to "light a fire under him".

 

It's probably a good reality check to show them what life is like when you don't stick in the show though.

Big game tonight can't wait!

For like the 10th time the team didn't have hardly any practices on the road trip so they didn't want him sitting doing nothing. Also gives them a chance to see him in game action.

It's weird how the Pelicans aren't much better than they actually are. They are very talented. Eric Gordon injury hurts but they should be better than .500.

their lack of depth is killing them, and as mentioned, monty williams isn't a good coach at all.

 

big game for the raps tonight, but with their perimiter d, i think they're going to have a tough time containing the splash bros.

Lou Will is gonna get absolutely rekt on defense tonight

 

Watching Casey make GV guard Curry will be fun.

[Guest]

I'm gonna have a fun time watching three guards who all need the ball on the floor during crunch time tonight.

I agree

Good thing JV will be on the bench to watch it all unfold.

 

2Pat needs to go to work on Lee tonight, same with Amir. Really can't see us winning this one, they match up on us so well. And if they start Draymond, yeah, we're f***ed lol.

[Guest]

With ezeli (i think) and bogut out for tonight, jv really has to get some looks down low. he also has to play in the 4th.

[immature]

Yup. Completely agree. Casey will probably play small ball though, especially in the 4th.

[Horses Fart]

Prob gonna get destroyed tonight but if not........YE f***IN HAW! Bonus.

[jays_fever]

They Beat Memphis, should have beat Portland, destroyed the clips. I'm not sure why all of you are so negative.

More so appreciative of GS

Well Golden state is clearly the better team, but it's not like we don't have a decent shot at winning.

[Guest]

2pat will out splash the splash bros.

 

Hopefully.

Stranger things have happened.

 

Kinda.

I think Casey gets way too much hate. His rotations this year have been a huge improvement over prior years. He is kinda stuck playing GV as he is the only guy besides Lowry that can play the point. As for JV its been clear the team plays better with him off the court. PP/Amir gives much better spacing on offence and is better defensively.

[Orgfiller]

f*** sakes Casey. The guy is starting Landry, who is coming back from a concussion, over James Johnson again.

I disagree, when JV starts beasting in the post he allows the team to not only rely on their shot. He's a presence on the glass and his size usually keeps people from going into the paint too often.

Amir, JV, and 2Pat all have capable jump shots. Of course, 2Pat's extends to the 3pt line.

[Orgfiller]

GSW doing their thing right from the start.

Well you are disagreeing with the numbers then as the team is much better on both ends with him off the floor this season

 

GD, I agree but JV isn't really a catch and shoot guy.

[burlingtonbandit]

Damn GS is so good.

[burlingtonbandit]

Lol never want to see Ross shoot that again.

[dineke]

Curry is so good... and he makes less than Lowry!

[burlingtonbandit]

I know GS is good offensively but Raps defense needs to be a lot better. 18 points and the Q isn't half over.

[Orgfiller]

Why does Speights look like Melo out there? Guy has been money with the mid-range J's.

[burlingtonbandit]

Lol never want to see Ross shoot that again.

 

He just did it again.
