    Props to the Pels keeping it together, and close at the end of the first. Agree with some others though; need the Pelsto at least attempt, and drain some three's to stay in it down the road. Luckily they seem to be disciplined and run nice sets to get looks.

    Im actually more concerned that the Warriors playing a well run and competitive Pelicans team is gonna make them very sharp for a potential match up in the WCF against us.

    Rondo / PG13 / Davis is a defensive nightmare.

    We are gonna play a well run and competitive jazz team tho. Since they got gobert back from a knee injury in january, they have the 2nd best mark in the nba, only behind us

    Good news is playoff Rondo is still very much in effect. He's picking apart the Warriors D and they've been good with him running the show. Jrue has to wake up though. and Mirotic has to contribute something.

    dam pelicans gud job staying tied up, but u gonna need to make a separation. A shootout against the warriors will mostly end in your defeat.

    As Weber said...the Pels arent the Spurs...They MUST try to resign Cousins 1st. But this is where smart GM's get paid...

    Refs are scared of Ayesha Curry getting on twitter and calling them out.

    Rondo looking like a poor man's Chris Paul. Can do everything on the floor: shoot, pass, defend.

    Gsw are just a scary team with farking Durant.

    If we don't win it all this year, I would try to improve the team by bringing anybody, including Satan. That is how bad I want to beat those ****ers.

    Well.... game, set, match GS. Unless Pels can start shooting threes like the Rockets, they are dead meat. GS in four.
