  • New Orleans Pelicans Lose Handily to Utah Jazz

    The New Orleans Pelicans lost to the Utah Jazz to close out November, 101-87, in a fairly futile effort to close out their road trip and back-to-back.

  • Game On: Jazz @ Pelicans

    Eric Gordon: “No Davis, Holiday, or Anderson? Hold on y’all, I got this.” Tonight, an incredibly short-handed Pelicans team hosts the Utah Jazz. In addition to Jrue Holiday’s absence with his right leg injury, New Orleans will also be without Anthony Davis (right shoulder sprain) and likely without Ryan Anderson (right shoulder soreness… what is […]

  • Pelicans Don’t Blow a Lead, Beat the Jazz

    It’s okay to stop holding your breath, Pelicans fans. Your team beat the Utah Jazz tonight, and avenged an ugly loss a week ago, 105-98. The Pelicans led for most of the game and, despite what a bit of a Jazz run in the middle of the 3rd seemed to suggest, avoided a 4th quarter […]

  • Game On: Utah Jazz @ New Orleans Pelicans

    Revenge, retribution and, hopefully, satisfaction are on the line tonight for the New Orleans Pelicans and their fans. …Against a 1-11 Utah Jazz team? Unfortunately, the answer is yes.

  • Hornets Bench a No-Show as Jazz Pull Away in the 4th

    A familiar pattern reared its ugly head tonight as the Hornets starting lineup got the team out to a nice lead at the end of one quarter before the bench came in and absolutely killed all the momentum. The Hornets haven’t won a road game since the All-Star break, and the bench is as much […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Jazz

    This is practically a must-win for the Jazz if they want to win the eight seed out West. Meanwhile, the Hornets are looking to get their first road win since the All-Star break tonight. A couple things to watch for tonight include the newer, more aggressive Eric Gordon, Monty’s trapping defense, Darius Miller and Brian […]

  • Jazz Go Inside and Drop the Hornets

    Eric Gordon didn’t play. It’s the second night of a back-to-back. There are a handful of excuses as to why the Hornets should have lost this game. And none of them matter. This game came down to how well the Hornets defended the paint. When they did, they took a lead. When they struggled, Utah […]

  • Game On: Hornets @ Jazz

    Keys to Victory 1. Control the Defensive Boards The Jazz front line does a fantastic job of getting their guards more shots to miss by crashing the offensive glass on every possession. As of right now, they rebound 3 out of every 10 misses and they average one point per possession off those second chance […]

  • Scouting the NBA: Week Fourteen — Lakers Struggling, Nuggets Dangerous
