I expect a closer game tonight and Dallas won't shoot as well.  But I hope they come out hot and maybe discourage NO from the start.

If I had to guess, they are going to really try to establish Jonas to start the game.  Especially if Powell on him.   Get the game off to a rocky start with fouls and free throws and try to stop Dallas from getting into an early groove.

If KP is out, I hope for solid minutes from Boban.   We are really lacking when KP is out on having any big causing any concern for other teams.

Frank looks like he will be available, but KP is doubtful and Willie is out for personal reasons.    Will need to break the emergency Boban glass tonight.

I may lean towards a Boban/Maxi starting lineup.

Feels like a trap game honestly. Hope the boys in blue don't come out thinking this will be a walk in the park.

Halftime of this game will officially mark the end of the 1st quarter of the season, let’s make sure we open up the 2nd quarter the right way. Must win game.

Hopefully the Porzingis news is just an excuse to rest him.

Need big minutes from Boban and Moses. Hopefully Moses plays more intelligently than he did last game.

Even without KP, this should be a blowout. I’ll be very disappointed if it’s not.

Yeah, I think @"omahen" nailed this. First night of a back to back, and New Orleans is clearly terrible. I would be fine with resting KP for this one even if he was completely healthy.

Give Moses another chance to flagrant foul the rim.

I want to see some Boban in this one, especially if KP is out.

Heading for a 36 to 4 final score

Luka barking at refs instead of playing D and Luka being lazy to get back after a turnover are two of my least favorite things. UGH.

Luka with 5 TOs already. Pelicans haven't really been cashing those turnovers in though

Edit: and after I say that they cash in on his 6th turnover of the quarter

These are the worst 2 teams in NBA history

Burke and S. Brown are our best players.

Boban moved his feet and made a good defensive play! Now I’ve seen everything.

Season ending injury for THJ??

That quarter will be replayed on a loop on ESPN Classic
