Shock The World: #8 Pelicans vs #1 Warriors, Official First Round Thread

[*Hulks Up*]

Gordon still got some talent left, that shot was clutch.

You love Monty Williams out of timeouts?

Or he might have meant out of timeout plays

Imagine if the Pelican's D was not like toilet paper this game. And with that said the Warriors look very beatable to a disciplined team.

They don't want to hear it though. The game was lost because the Pelicans were absolutely lost on Defense and Eric Gordon tried to play Hero ball. Asik was terrible as well.

I expect the Warriors to win this in 5, but I don't think its a guaranteed trip to the WCF like everyone on here thinks.

We are going to see Monty's worth if he sticks with playing Asik at the 5 next game. The Pelicans won't win one game with that happening.

If even Mark Jackson would make that change, Monty would be damn near brain dead to start asik.

Also, people are getting too worked up over this GSW performance (as expected). This is their first time being the favorites. It'll take them a couple rounds to find their footing. That's why it was great for them that Portland and Memphis wound up in the 4/5 matchup and not San Antonio.

The Lakers struggled in 2000; the Celtics in 2008; the Spurs in 2014. They'll be fine.

with this logic and sound reasoning.

Its the first game of a prospective title run. Nerves aren't unexpected.

why are these bums not shooting 3s

 

[FaTaL]

klay is choking big time

 

[Silkk]

If only they started better

 

[ryderldb]

they won a lot of games by 20+ this season...they just know they are better than certain teams so they go in fukk it mode

can't do that in the playoffs though...

I thought JVG meant the immediate play following a timeout like he's crediting Monty for creative playcalling.
