    Had stop watching and I see Pels made it close. Like I said earlier in the thread, Davis is the best player in this series but Pels have some work to do around him.

    If Brow exhibited the offensive aggression that we saw in the 4th, throughout the game, the outcome might have been different. Sigh. Monty Williams has some work to do.

    1st half all Davis did was roam the perimeter and settle for long 2's. He needs to just work pick and roll and the paint like he did in the 4th.

    I honestly think Monty's too soft of a coach to do the right thing.

    If Davis plays the way he did in the fourth for the whole game, the pelicans can win this series

    The Warriors shouldn't feel very good. That collapse took the joy out of this win. On the other hand, they should be humbled and hungry for game 2 knowing they can't take the Pels for granted.

    The difference was spacing to allow AD to work. Having Asik on the floor is so detrimental.

    Also, Norris Cole should start

    That's the second time you posted a picture of his smoking hot wife and labeled her as his sister. This is Curry's sister:

    1) Good point. If NOLA wants a chance, Asik should be glued to the bench, at least when GS has their starters in.

    2) I think Jrue should start, just because he's a good defender who can 'guard' Curry. PG is just a spot where NOLA isn't gonna win. Cole played well, though, which was surprising.

    I'd start Jrue as well, but I thought he was on a minutes restriction?

    Jumpshooting teams rarely win it all. And while curry and thompson are great shooters, curry can't go 4 for 13 from 3 and expect to win.

    The thing that has saved the warriors this year is that they demoralize you before you can find the chinks in their armor.

    They get it 30 on you but if you keep playing hard you can come back, the grizzlies did it a couple of weeks ago and now the pelicans did it.

    I honestly didn't know that. If so, I'd start him and use his minutes for defense on Curry. I don't think playing him in the 2nd unit against bench players is getting the most out of him.
