Pelicans easily win at Boston without Gordon

[Pelicans78]

Back to back double digit road wins. Even without Gordon tonight. Aminu was the star, but the front court played well.

Pelicans been okay of late, can't say same for celts

[whitemamba]

did rivers get any playing time?

Celts had won 6 in a row before tonight.

[Pelicans78]

8 points in 22 minutes on 3-6 shooting. Solid effort.

his minutes have been decreasing no?

[Pelicans78]

his minutes have been decreasing no?

Yeah since Gordon came back. Roger Mason has been playing well off the bench. Since Gordon was resting tonight, Rivers got more minutes.

He's been struggling too this season.

guy should of stayed in college for a little longer tbh, i liked him at duke just thought he came in too early

Yeah I didn't like the pick. Felt he was too raw to be drafted 10th. He definitely needed more time in college. He won't get much minutes with Gordon playing. Probably should be a D-league candidate.

not much in the draft though, thats why i cant blame the FO for making that pick, draft was drier than the sahara.

Solid win for the Hornets. The C's looked old and slow and their FT shooting was horrible.

[Killakobe81]

Back to back double digit road wins. Even without Gordon tonight. Aminu was the star, but the front court played well.

I may be opinionated but I admit when I am wrong. Aminu is much improved, I think the Olympic experience helped him immensely.

Celtics were on a 7 game win streak before tonight.

Pelicans are playing solid lately, I think they're a mediocre team, not the bad team their record would indicate.

[Ghazi]

I haven't watched the Hornets in a couple of weeks but Aminu's defense was atrocious early in the year.

[Darth_Pelican]

I may be opinionated but I admit when I am wrong. Aminu is much improved, I think the Olympic experience helped him immensely.

Aminu has played well in about 6 games this season, and horrible in the other 30+ games.

[HarlemHeat37]

A healthy Pelicans team would be on the same level as Portland, Utah, etc, tbh..their frontcourt is one of the best in the NBA, Vasquez is a solid starter(although he's a game manager) and Gordon is an all-star level guard..that's enough talent to make a run at 8th, if they were healthy..

[Pelicans78]

Aminu is probably the Hornets best defender with his length, athleticism and rebounding.

[whitemamba]

him and davis should still bulk up imho

[Pelicans78]

I may be opinionated but I admit when I am wrong. Aminu is much improved, I think the Olympic experience helped him immensely.

His defense is strong, but he will never be more than average offensively since he can't shoot or dribble. But his defense is valuable.

[Pelicans78]

him and davis should still bulk up imho

I think Aminu is ok as a SF, but Davis definitely needs to bulk up. But he will.

[Ghazi]

hhmm, well somethin was causing them to struggle defending small forwards early in the season iirc. they were bottom of te league defensively for a while, but seem to be climbing out of the cellar.

[whitemamba]

I think Aminu is ok as a SF, but Davis definitely needs to bulk up. But he will.

they need to bring him down to the 4, and get a true center.. davis reminds me of a better lamar

[Ghazi]

Hornets, get the fuck on AIM dawg!!

[Pelicans78]

hhmm, well somethin was causing them to struggle defending small forwards early in the season iirc. they were bottom of te league defensively for a while, but seem to be climbing out of the cellar.

It was his effort plus the team as a whole was bad defensively. They've been much better lately on that end of the floor.

[Pelicans78]

Hornets, get the fuck on AIM dawg!!

Wish I could bro. Gotta go to bed. Early day tomorrow. Look me up tomorrow.

[Darth_Pelican]

The Pelicans no longer hold the worst record in the West. lol Suns

[whitemamba]

Davis has been playing the 4 all year... Lopez has started at center all season.

i meant ditch lopez and get a real center.

[Darth_Pelican]

ahh yeah I caught that and edited

lol

kicking ass and taking names with or without pussy boy

[racm]

kicking ass and taking names with or without pussy boy

Son General Greivis, Unibrow, and even Aminu are all key players... the problem was playing that chucker Rivers more than one should

[Brunodf]

Healthy Pelican team is top 5-8 in the West.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol no..8th at best, tbh..

[mexpurs21]

Will Stern fine the Hornets for resting Gordon?

[Pelicans78]

:lol no..8th at best, tbh..

I would say 7th at best. They're as good as Portland. They're a notch below Denver, unless of course you're including the Lakers up there when healthy.

Ya I'm including LA with a healthy Howard/Gasol..

As I said earlier, NO is just as good, or better, than Portland, Utah, Minnesota, etc..I don't believe they would be better than LA, Denver, GS..

[whitemamba]

still really young, but i see them being not bad a few years down

[LnGrrrR]

Good game Pelicans fans. Guess the C's have to restart that winning streak...

[RudyRay]

Pelicans have a good young core (Davis, Gordon, Vasquez, Aminu) and can only get better if they continue to miss the playoffs and stockpile lottery picks.

[Paranoid Pop]

That division is ridiculous...

[BRHornet45]

:lol no..8th at best, tbh..

Son the Hornets just swept right through all 3 Texas teams with ease especially the Spurs. They f***ed them in they ass and made them humble. You should be humble as well instead of being bitter about it.

[Raven]

The Pelicans no longer hold the worst record in the West. lol Suns

their longterm outlook actually looks great..

[Paranoid Pop]

Feels like the hornets are steamrolling the league right now tbh... They have a great future.
