Comments from the Other Side - Pelicans 4/10/26

 It seems that most Pelicans fans have given up.  Very few comments in the game threads.  The ones who are still there are very disgruntled with their team and front office and, it would seem, Zion especially.   And, they don't even  have a lottery pick to look forward to.  The Celtics clinched the 2nd seed and that's quite an accomplishment in a gap year.  Orlando will still be fighting for seeding on Sunday and so that game will be interesting.  T...

Nikola Vucevic Is Starting to Find His Footing

Nikola Vucevic has begun to string together strong performances after his initial struggles coming back from a broken ring finger. While Friday’s game against the Pelicans lacked the intensity of the Celtics’ previous game against the New York Knicks, it was still a useful setting for the veteran center to build rhythm and chemistry with […]

Knicks 112, Raptors 95: Scenes from clinching the 3-seed

Long-Range Offense Helps Trail Blazers Down Pelicans

The Portland Trail Blazers did what they needed to do on Tuesday night, vanquishing the New Orleans Pelicans 118-106 at Portland’s Moda Center. The victory ended up looking far more decisive than the action was. New Orleans remained within shouting distance of the victory until the final moments. But the win counts the same in […]

Blazers Overcome Slow Start, Take Out Pelicans

The Portland Trail Blazers are in the thick of a tight race for standing in the Western Conference Play-In Tournament this week. You wouldn’t have known it from their outing against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday night. Portland came out flatter than a yeast-free pancake, giving up 65 points in the first half and […]

Join the Blazers vs. Pelicans Second-Half Discussion Here

The Portland Trail Blazers are facing the New Orleans Pelicans at the Moda Center tonight.

Discuss: Blazers Try to Follow Up Big Win with Another vs. Pelicans

The Portland Trail Blazers take on the New Orleans Pelicans at the Moda Center tonight. It’d be easy to dismiss a game against a team that’s won just 25 of 76 games as trivial. Reality check: if the Blazers don’t win this one, their hard-fought, rallying cry victory against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday […]

Rockets pluck Pelicans 134-102

Sometimes it’s nice to have a relaxing win against a team the Rockets really should beat. That doesn’t always happen, but tonight it did. While the Rockets seem unlikely to hit a pre-season win prediction of 52, they have leveled their road record at 19-19, and they did it in dominant fashion at The Big […]

Raptors and Pelicans rematch in Toronto

This is a revenge game for the Toronto Raptors. Sort of.  Some have said that the Raps’ last loss to the Pelicans and the brutal staredown Jamal Shead suffered at the hands of Dejounte Murray were the catalyst to the Raptors getting their act back together and winning three games in a row. This game […]
