Man… another national TV game. Definitely made the right call not getting the NBA league pass.

Ballys is not a bad deal $20 to see most games not on national tv, seems cheap to me as they play what 12-15 games a month? Couple bucks to watch seems fair imo, beats going out to a sports bar every other night lol

Don’t think that’s an option in California.

Don’t think that’s an option in California.

League Pass is only $100 now.

With a VPN it might be.

Does anyone here have a VPN? Are Arizona IP addresses an option on them?

If so, I'd think you could bamboozle the Bally app... hell, a 5 dollar VPN combined with the Bally app could get you access to a large portion of the league's local feeds.

The Pelicans are a bit banged up, don't think Zion or Ingraham played last night, but they still beat the Mavs!

The latest injury update from the Pelicans. Zion Williamson and Herb Jones are QUESTIONABLE.

Brandon Ingram is OUT.

This game will be very telling.
If we come out and just waffle stomp them from the get go, we will know the playoff doldrums of last year have cleared.
Anything else is unacceptable and should be punished accordingly.

Jock Landale and Deandre Ayton want to be known as a physical duo.

Hopefully Ayton gets the memo

Yeah, Jock has only one gear, play hard.

 

[Mainstreet]

Zion Williamson, Herb Jones, Jose Alvarado, Dyson Daniels and CJ McCollum are all listed as questionable for the Pelicans on Friday.

Tuesday, the Pelicans were short-handed when they beat the Mavericks.

I think Jock Landale is much better than Lou Amundson because he is bigger, also mobile and can hit the three point shot.

He can even make free throws.

Yeah Ayton doesn’t get the physical tag until he starts drawing fouls and going to the FT line. Raise your hand if you’re surprised he’s still averaging under 3 FT attempts per game.

I look at basketball reference and they project him at 20pts 12rebs per game. Who thinks he misses both marks? I do.

His rebounds are up for now due to our lack of size. Hopefully he can sustain it.

 

[cheesebeef]

Up? He’s averaging 9.5 rebounds per so far.

Ayton may never be more than a third wheel on a good team. One can only hope for more. Still he is a top ten center.
