Pelicans play hard in second half
Now THAT was a game of runs. Portland put the Pelicans in an early hole, running out to a 28-15 lead in the first. The Pels then spread the floor with Babbitt, Anderson and Frazier coming in and they cut the deficit to 32-28 before finishing the quarter only down 6. Then things got a […]

Game On: Trailblazers @ Pelicans
Portland comes into tonight’s game in a bit of a schedule-driven funk. They’ve planed 9 of their last eleven games on the road, played last night in San Antonio – and still have to look forward to a stop in Dallas before finally arriving home for a few days. Considering that – and that they’ve […]

Observations: Pelicans @ Blazers
For the second time this season, the Pelicans held all the cards through the first three quarters – and then sputtered in the fourth and lost the game. Really – the Blazers didn’t change their defense much – it’s just that the Pelican guards started missing. I mentioned in the game preview that the Blazers […]

Game On: Pelicans @ Trailblazers

While that would make the game somewhat more difficult than otherwise, I currently have two Pelican plays I enjoy more than any other – A Ryan Anderson step back three – and Anthony Davis blocking shots that no other player in […]

Blazers do enough to beat the Pelicans

Game On: Pelicans @ Trailblazers
At this point in the season, I’m just hoping the Marquee matchup of this game actually shows up to play. Nothing is more fun than Aldridge vs Davis as two lanky, premier power forwards battle each other. If Davis’ back and ankle are bothering him too much, this game immediately becomes about 87 times less […]

Pelicans buried from deep by Blazers
After flirting with it for two weeks straight, Anthony Davis finally got a new career high tonight, scoring 36 points on a variety of dunks and jumpers. It didn’t matter, though, as the Trail Blazers took three after three and managed to hit 42% of the 33 they let fly with. In a game […]

Game On: Blazers @ Pelicans
Tonight the Pelicans catch a break. (and for once, not the bone or back or tendon type) After a scorching start to the season, the Trailblazers have fallen back to earth, winning just nine of their last twenty games. They have struggled even more over the last five, winning just a single game against a […]
