Early Game Thread - Favored NOP (-4.0) vs. SAS as both teams have seeding on the line

[TimDunkem]

I feel bad; It’s like these old legends trying to hold on to their legacy vs. a young hungry team with visons of the ultimate prize. Pop should have never got into politics because if he had focused on his players he might have actually accomplished something special. Now he’s just some old bearded man yelling at the clouds.

Truth nuke

Hopefully Minnesota holds on..the Warriors aren't explosive without Curry, at least it won't be embarrassing, unlike a Rockets matchup..

I'm of the rip it off like a bandaid mentality. Give us the Rockets. Quick and painless.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

Another half by Pop. Starting pushing the wrong buttons after like two minutes and never stopped.

His dumbass just had to play Gasol

Oh yourself and be thankful kawhi is not playing.

[Slippy]

Pop playing Manu Parker and Pau and then taking him out for Patty then putting Forbes in there with Green.

Ya couldnt help but notice those linuups during the hornets run.

[TheGreatYacht]

Gasol played 180 seconds that half and it was 180 seconds too many.

Should have played the Austin Spurs against the pelicans tbh. Would have been a win.

[BillMc]

I have a problem with him making them...

So did the laws of Physics.

[r0drig0lac]

at least we know that Kawhi is not coming back this season

[NASpurs]

They did beat the rockets lol couldn't beat the Lakers but beat Houston and played GS well. Not saying they'll win, but I wouldn't expect them to look this bad either.

Yeah the Rockets without CP3 who weren't really playing for anything. I don't expect the Rockets to look that bad either.

[hater]

Manure

What a piece of of a player

[TimDunkem]

Gasol played 180 seconds that half and it was 180 seconds too many.

PATFO

HE PLAYED 62 GAMES LAST SEASON AND WAITED A FEW WEEKS ON THE BEACHES OF SPAIN FOR HIS NEXT CONTRACT?! PAY THAT MAN FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS!!! -

[HarlemHeat37]

Aron Baynes has 18-10 at the half

I think we are 4 games and fishing against either one.

[cd98]

Spurs folding like a tent.

[boutons_deux]

Spurs blew a 18 point lead, can the Pelicans?

[sasaint]

at least we know that Kawhi is not coming back this season

Or next.

[Darth_Pelican]

Oh yourself and be thankful kawhi is not playing.

There’s still part of the Spurs fanbase that gives a about Kawhi?

[Mugen]

This is probably all the proof RC needs that Porky is due for a big extension come summertime

People are deluding themselves with the GS matchup. We struggled when all they had to play was Zaza, McGee, and McCaw.

Spurs folding like a tent.

Is that worse than a card table?

such sacrifice and loyalty. Old decrepit Gasol coming here 3 years too late after originally spurning the Spurs. Enjoy your loyalty contract on us. Remember to tell your brother how we treated you when he's old, declining and needs a pay day.

You just know he's getting it, but it won't be because of the glorified secretary Drunkford. It's his boss Poop that refuses to part with his 36 and 41 year old sons.

[sasaint]

Spurs blew a 18 point lead, can the Pelicans?

Not in NO tonight against the Spurs.
