[Degoat]

Didn’t get to watch much of the game but a win is always welcomed!! GSG

[Robz4000]

I'll take the W.

[SAGirl]

I got in time to see just the end (last 45 seconds with an NBA transmission in nba tv that was switching to the ind/ny game... anyways Lonzo ball was awful and won that game for the Spurs by himself... If I am the Pelicans I trade that guy somewhere unless they want to tank again.

Cant wait for the rest of the squad to come back.

[rankingtear]

great D by Poeltl

This. Nobody should call Jakob a stiff after that sequence.

[J_Paco]

The good thing is we found a team dumber than we are.

Sure, cause a "dumb" team leads the league in fewest turnover and has winning record without an all - star.

[GreekSpursfan]

We not only lost many close games WITH him...he was the reason for a lot of those losses... AND we missed the playoffs with him... He isn't some savior

I'm talking about this game, THIS GAME

[PhantomDashCam]

Great effort guys. Way to hold on down the stretch.

Ugly, FT heavy 4th. A dubs a dub though.

[John B]

Great win. Man I can’t wait for everybody back.

[ace3g]

[cjw]

Treading water while missing four key rotation guys is good. And if they had to drop one of the last two, better to lose to OKC than the Pelicans looking towards playoff tiebreakers.

[Dejounte]

Luka is a keeper

DJ is a star

LMA as a permanent bench piece is valuable

Mills is a scrub

[poopbox]

Figured we would win against OKC and lose this one, and the opposite happened.

When you don't have half your rotation players though all you care about is the W and we got one tonight

[NASpurs]

Sure, cause a "dumb" team leads the league in fewest turnover and has winning record without an all - star.

Are you ing with me or are you obtuse because you're a ing moron ?

[John B]

Resign Aldridge and Demar

[NASpurs]

The collective iq of this team is below average. How can anyone deny that? Does J Taco not watch the games?

[emanueldavidginobili]

5 rebounds for Luka in 14 minutes good to see, pleasantly surprised on how he has been defending on the perimeter.

[justinandimcool]

Aldridge in this bench role is amazing

Poeltl becoming our most important player tbh

[RD2191]

[RC_Drunkford]

Murray/Mills
White/Vassell
DeRozan/Walker
Johnson/Gay
Poeltl/Aldridge

looks like the ideal rotation. Could give a lot of teams a tough playoff series. Basically no drop off no matter the line up for 48 minutes

[RD2191]

Are you ing with me or are you obtuse because you're a ing moron ?

[timtonymanu]

DJ, White, Keldon, Derozan, Poeltl
Fatty, Lonnie, Vassell, Gay, LMA

Pretty solid lineup when everyone is healthy, all things considered

[Dejounte]

Aldridge in this bench role is amazing

Poeltl becoming our most important player tbh

Rudy Gobert lite

[Mugen]

Props to Derozan tbh, nice game after his dad passing.
