Anderson broke his foot, no? They look solid. They have a big team and they are damn athletic. Losing Anderson hurst because they need every shooter they have, but they will be fun to watch.

He chipped a bone in his foot. Out 1-3 weeks.

Yeah this team is really exciting. Just need more frontcourt depth. Center is a potential weak spot.

Impressed with Tyreke's defense against George.

Didn't know how talented Holiday is.

Cornerstone scoring at will right now. Strong 1st quarter.

o/u on days that Gordon plays before getting injured?

Hopefully he can give us 70 games. Hard to replace his scoring ability.

Our frontcourt depth is weak without Anderson.

Props to George. He won the game in the 2nd half. Pacers defense stepped up too even though the Pelicans settled for too many jumpers. Also Monty Williams isn't a great coach. He made some awful mistakes with his rotation and not going to Gordon more.

George is an amazing player. On both ends. Pelicans looked really solid. The thing they need to work on, IMO, is they rely on ISO ball wayyyy to much. They have great talent and athleticism, but with Jrue, Tyreke and Gordon, they get the ball and rely on that one v one too much. They need to move and find spacing. It's an adjustment though because all 3 of those guys are used to having the ball in their hands to score. Fun team though.

They're going to rely on isos all year with Monty Williams as coach, tbh..

That's the truth. He doesn't know how to coach offense and he never hires any good offensive coach.
