In context

LoweI mean, they're starting five of Dejante Murray, who I heard you on group chat correctly saying that like, boy, did he, he looked like the stabilizing force. Yeah. This team needs me. He'll never make an all -star team again, but wow, competent point guard play kind of just orders everything in place. Him, Trey Murphy the third, who doesn't love Trey Murphy the third Herb Jones.

LoweWhen he plays, who doesn't love Herb Jones needs to shoot it better, but whatever Zion. Macy makes some sense. And then you just come off the bench with so many dudes who need the ball, like Jordan pool, Sadiq Bay, Ben Matherin is here for some reason. Derek queen wants to run the offense.

LoweLike the names are all interesting.

LoweI just have absolutely no idea what it's going to translate to on the court on either end of the floor, like literally what it's going to look like other than Zion does feel like it really does feel like the days of point Zion post Zion heavy doses of pick and roll Zion are, are over.

LoweLike, obviously he's going to do a little bit of that stuff all the time, but like he's in the dunker spot, just hanging around a much more than he used to be with that's weird.

LoweThey have, I think all of their draft picks, including, I think they get the best of their own pick in the bucks pick this year, which is a very nice pick to have,

Lowebut it does resonate with me what you said, because I do think we're going to like, we'll be watching pelicans kings or pelicans blazers and the pelicans just score 48 points in that quarter and like zion's dunking everything and trey murphy is dunking ollie oops or it looks like he's going to touch the top of the backboard herbs deflecting everything in sight and then you're like oh yeah they did and then they lost the game i just i i
