Gone Fishing in the Bayou (0-4) - Portland (3) v. New Orleans [ADVANCE] (6) Round 1

[ryderldb]

Rondo is balling, but this playoff *insert name* is starting to get way over used.

 

[clutch]

ESPN interviewing Jrue and the local Fox Sports channel interviewing AD as sloppy seconds...what a time to be alive

Maaaaaan If DeMarcus Cousins wasn't injured. This team would be ridiculous.

Ehhhhhhh

 

[Ineedmoney504]

nikka he can’t shoot.... 10 Times out of 10 he ain’t making that shot

actually which is surprising he been hitting that shot all season.

 

[Stuntone]

Cousins for Kawhi.


Make Louisiana Great Again.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Portland might be done

Lillard is basically just Mike James with access to Protools

Jruevenile

Portland
Only the third seed as a result of the other playoff contenders in the West suffering through major injuries to key contributors.

Stotts getting out-coached something badly this series so far. Portland offense is a mess. Their offense wastes 10 seconds trying to get a switch but that fails and then someone unsuccessfully isos.

And then Stotts is doing something I saw him do against Houston that hurt his squad. He keeps trying to matchup on the floor with the opposition when they go small instead of just goin with his best lineups. Their roster can’t match up small against other small lineups. Dude is losing at chess out there

Those calling this an upset are just looking at seeding.

The Pelicans likely finish 3rd if Cousins did not go down.

Hell even as they are now the Pelicans have the best player in the series with AD and of course Playoff Rondo and MVP candidate Jrue Holiday.

We was kinda struggling with cousins. So I’m not sure if we would have got 3rd seed.

But even still the blazers won only 1 game more then the pels. So seed out west means really nothin in the bottom half. 3 teams ended up tied and Portland had one more win

Losing Nukric & ET to injury then having to rely on the rookie Collins really did them in..Dame & CJ not showing up also

Please, the bolded is a bigger factor than the others you mentioned
