Does any watch Pelican games?

[RandysHobby]

Just want some opinions.

I am a HUGE Jimmer fan, and he has played well in the last two games. I watch all the games even when he doesnt play and I can tell you this.

Austin Rivers is ass. He is not a good player and can't believe they keep playing him so much. Tyreke is a hog who needs the ball every possession.

Ryan Anderson is great, but man does is he a gunner. I would love to see them dump Rivers because he is nothing to the team ever since he got there.

Anthony Davis is awesome. Love watching him play.

Anyone have any comments?

As a Pelicans fan, I would have to disagree with the Rivers remark. When given time he can play. It's not a player problem, it's a coaching problem. Monty isnt a developer as he was precieved to be when hired. He doesn't play the rooks to give them time to develop. We sucked last year, and as a coach he should played rivers and Darius miller more to develop them or give him a glimpse if they have it or not. Anderson has always been a catch an shoot player as Jimmer is as well. Tyreke has always been a ball hog, but like I posted in another thread. His numbers are up from a few years in the decline. We'll get better, but I think a change at the Helm is needed for us to be better.

I watch a good amount and I agree with the guy above. Rivers when he plays is actually pretty decent. Jimmer is a good shooter but can't really make a play himself. I think the biggest question is why Luke Babbitt gets so many minutes. I know Gordon is hurt but those could have went to Jimmer. Babbitt doesn't bring much to the table. Regardless of Tyreke ball hogging, when Davis is in the offense always goes through him as it should be. He's a monster and will be the cornerstone of this team regardless of who they have.

Thanks for the posts guys! I guess we have different views on Rivers, but your right about Babbitt, what a waste. I personally dont like Gordon so with him out I think things are going a bit better.

Bump- Austin RIvers OUT of the rotation! I hope that is going to stay that way!

Honestly I only watched when Jimmer was in tonight because I was so busy. Heard in the post game Monty Williams said that the 4th quarter guys played very selfishly, no doubt in my mind it was after they took out Jimmer for the HOG Tyreke. Not saying Jimmer should be in instead of Tyreke, but thats when it got bad.

I honestly love seeing jimmer get time. I feel like every coach he's had has killed his confidence. He's probably not going to ever live up to where he was drafted but I don't understand why he can't be an effective 15 minute a night guy.

The pels issue is that there best off the dribble wing is tyreke.... And thats really saying something because he's terrible. Monty has to play him. He has to.

If they could only flip tyreke into someone like Gordon Hayward. Can you imagine how much better that team would be? Holy crap.

Sorry but Jimmer sucks lol

I dont care what you think, I enjoy watching him play very much.

[rookies]

Yeah I don't get why Jimmer gets ANY minutes very bad. Sucks that AD is on that team, but at least Monty gave AD the ball to win or tie the game and he made it not just a tyreke run to rim end of game play.

With the Right Team and Coaching Style of Basketball Jimmer will be a Phenomenal again.

I watch all the games The Pels are weak at the point and need to give Rivers more time to develop. Babbit gets minutes because of high percentage shot making ability
