Let's get it boys. I need to see defense. When we defend well it allows us to get into transition. Speed kills.

Going to be a tough one. This will be our 3rd game in 4 days. Pelicans are expected to be a playoff team and are hungry to get there first win.

I'm not confident the Lakers rebounding numbers will hold up well, but I am curious how many rebounds Lonzo grabs tonight. Part of the Lakers' strategy so far seems to be getting the ball in Ball's hands as early in the offense as possible. D.Jordan grabbed 24 rebounds against us but Lonzo still managed 9. Lonzo got 11 rebounds against Phoenix. Tonight's rebounding battle could be interesting, a real test of box out skills for Nance, Lopez, Randle, Bogut.

We are going to get destroyed on the boards in this one, one of the best rebounding teams in the league and I think they are the best offensive rebounding team. Beyond Cousins and Davis, they don't have much though. You can give 25-15 to both those guys and still win.

We will need to hit some outside shots and push the pace, but very winnable game if when we get stops we can also get the rebound. KCP is back tonight, which is cool.

I think Lopez will do a good job of pulling davis out of the paint and cousins isn't an elite defender...but still, have no idea who is going to check Cousins offensively or keep either of those guys off of the boards.

On paper, Randle.....if he’s stopped pouting.

I agree, I think the rebounding numbers are going to look ugly as sin, but we still could win IF we can hit outside shots, push the pace, wear them down and keep their defense scrambling. For better or worse, Cousins has a history of losing his cool when he's tired and Randle's bumping him.

Tough game today. Hard to see how we win this if Cousins and Davis are both on.

I think we take a loss here, Cousins and AD will be too much for our bigs to handle.

No team is in mid season form until that happens this is the best time to rack up wins.

Just saw Ajinca is out as well.
He usually has a big night against us in the paint.

N.O. is the type of team that tries hard to lose games. Just don't get in their way and watch them fold. I think we come out strong tonight.

I'll probably be listening to Joel Meyers over on the Pellys broadcast.

I hope Zo continues to shoot more. Against the Clipper he was 1-6 3pts. Against Phoenix 12-27 29pts. Tonight's game will say something about where the team is going. They can't keep blowing big leads. Anyone know where I can get prozac at discount?

Same here if it isn't blacked out for me. They should have kept Joel and dumped Stu. I didn't appreciate Joel when he was here because he had to change his style so much just to fit in with Stu's nonsense. Now that I've heard him without Stu, he's very good.
