@ProPelsTalk But Mike Standfield told me they have championship aspirations. And that’s why tickets are so high

In YOUR eyes, what do the Pelicans need to do to be better?

English
Should the #Pelicans run it back with the same team? Chrissy’s answer may raise some eyebrows! 👀

@just_adavis @DaltonGNOLA Herb is literally the definition of a role player.
English
@DaltonGNOLA They dont have role players either then cause herb is not treated as such

@cbaise09 @JDubOfInTheNO @ProPelsTalk They could have cleaned house upon arrival. This is 100% on benson dumars and weaver for this garbage product you see
English
@JDubOfInTheNO @ProPelsTalk Let’s keep in mind that they inherited Griffin’s hand picked coaching staff and drafted roster. Let’s see if they decide to clean house and bring in their own coaching staff.

April 16th, 2025: the day the Pelicans ownership officially gave up on being a respectable franchise.
What a helluva way to spend my last day as a 43 year old.
English
I just realized the Pelicans have TWO 2026 second round picks. Maybe you can add Poole and Hawkins with them two seconds for a late 2026 First🤷🏻♂️. Wishful thinking lol.
English
If both are available, who would you rather the #Saints take:
Mansoor Delane or Caleb Downs?
English
@mcuban @Joshimpressions Need cheaper tickets. Cheaper concessions. Better product overall.
English
Make the games 40 minutes.
8 x 82 / 48 =13.667 That’s the equivalent number of games you would reduce the schedule by. Without breaking arena leases.
Works for college. Works for international. Works for the WNBA.
AND.
If you looking at tv and streaming ratings, the less the actual playing time for a televised game, the bigger the ratings.
Ie, the less time fans have to focus on a game, the more they enjoy watching it on tv

0 for 3! Also — notice how none of the ideas involve shortening the season which is partly how we fell into this tanking sinkhole in the first place. They come up with 3 “solutions” and none of the 3 are “what would 72 games look like?” This league is so frustrating
English
@Dubbslane @ProPelsTalk @jarrettreed_ How can you be positive about a team that’s consistently below average. It’s not negative when it’s reality.
English
@ProPelsTalk @jarrettreed_ Fan comes from fanatic.
Irrational is built in.
Just own it. You’re fanatically negative about the team.
You love to hate them.
English
“Don’t tell me I’m not a fan. I don’t have to be delusional about the state of the team to be a fan. I can be realistic about that and still want the team to win. In fact I stay up so much doing this as a reflection of how much I want them to win. That’s how much of a fan I am.”

3 out of 7 years Zion eclipsed playing 50 or more games
What to do with Zion this summer?

@DillySanders Clutch winning is always a reflection of if you have stars on not. Brunson took over. Pels didn’t have a star to counter. Most nights when the Pels win in clutch time it’s cause they get stops not because they have a star. (They don’t)
English
I think clutch winning will come with more time together, if they decide to run it back next year.
This unit is still relatively young together. Would probably benefit from better rim protection.
Justin@ProPelsTalk
The team is competitive every night. But they can’t figure out how to win.
English
@ProPelsTalk Stars win games in close games. They don’t have a star
English
@thesoulman57 No player is worth what the pelicans gave up for queen.
English
Man I wish the Pels had a first round pick so they could get Acuff😭. But DQ was worth it.
English
@thesoulman57 Borrego can’t make them rebound. Borrego can’t magically have a star player close down the stretch. The roster needs a lot of work before any coach can be effective
English
I rock with Coach Borrego, but games like this is why I want Joe Dumars to have a long, extensive coaching search.
English
@RodWalkerNola Yes if they plan to hire a Mosley ham Ollie type. No if they are trying to swing for a bigger more established name. And we all know benson is cheap so I would keep JB.
English
Has James Borrego done enough to win #Pelicans coaching job? | Pelicans | nola.com nola.com/sports/pelican…

@JeffDuncan_ I’ve been waiting since 2012 for benson to care about the pelicans to be relevant.

After tonight, if my math is correct, the Pelicans magic number to officially be eliminated from play-in contention is 4. Any combination of Pelicans losses and (right now) Warriors wins, reduces that number. Pelicans have 11 games to go
