Second leg of a b2b. Let’s get it.

GSG!!!

[Em-City]

3-0

[Degoat]

Wonder if Pop goes big today with Zion/Adams starting front court

[John B]

Pelicans is a much bigger team, but could be slower. I hope Pop trust Keldon to still match against Williamson. Spurs by 6

[Dex]

Thanks OP, keep it going!

Just don't start Rudy. We're better off trying to beat them with small ball than watching Gay get bullied in the paint.

[BillMc]

Spurs by 5.

I'm curious to see how KJ matches up with Zion. Zion is so strong...he's short though... close to KJ's height....

Pelicans handled a Toronto team we barely beat and got cut down by Miami, which is built closer to the Spurs. New Orleans seems lopsided to me, with a lot of size, but lacking perimeter scoring. They hit 19 threes against the Raptors and did not shoot well against the Heat.

[RD2191]

Spurs always the bed in NO tbh

[justinandimcool]

saw both New Orleans games, they absolutely suck at guarding the 3. if the shot is on we win. we probably won’t get at the rim so Aldridge has to torch Adams midrange

[stephen jackson]

This ones gonna be tough but fun

[NASpurs]

This one has L written all over it but prove me wrong Spurs.

[Gorepopovich]

Luka time!

[poopbox]

The "is LMA really washed up" game cause he torches Adams whenever they play...if he can't do that anymore then

[phxspurfan]

who guards Zion...

[BackHome]

It’s nice to be 2 and 0 but was looking at standings and noticed in the East Orlando is in 1st place and the Cavs are in 4th place never saw that coming.

It's too early just like it was too early to call the Spurs a lottery team (like a lot of you did) after three preseason games. You wait at least 10-15 games to see what kind of team we have.

Zion is one of the strongest, if not THE strongest, forwards in the league. He'll be a good benchmark to see where Keldon is physically. If he holds his own, then he's a top tier athlete in the NBA.

Edit: LeBron might be the strongest over Zion, actually

[Joseph Kony]

Zion is going to rape our interior. Good thing is the LMA generally plays well against Adams

[Degoat]

I low key worry about the wear & tear being put on Keldon, he plays so physical that it may catch up to him

[gospursgojas]

Ugh Fox Sports again. Who’s got a stream?

You mean like have a degenerative tendinopathy? Let's hope not...
