Jordan Hawkins on franchise record in three pointers | Pelicans vs Hornets Postgame 1/17/24

You guys team uh 25 threes for yall as a team just what do you feel like was was working out there for yall offensively um ball movement uh I mean we got the ball inside and out tacked the paint um and got some kickout threes some more mores

Uh what we call Brady uh pocket to the uh to a three ball so yeah what’s a Brady uh it’s when you uh it’s a pocket pass or a or any type of a give and go uh touch paint and uh kick out for a

Three yeah just for you as a guy can knock him down obviously how nice is it to just like play with a bunch of guys CJ Zion bi who like have a lot of gravity and and will move it um I mean they’re they’re they’re part of the

Reason I’m getting them open right now um Z and bi they do a great job of using their gravity and they’re really good passers I think they’re really underrated passers um I think uh the one of the best passes in the in the league him NBI so uh they do a great job

Getting off it uh when guys are open so uh me try and CJ uh we use their gravity for sure uh to get us open shots and you guys end up making more threes in this game than you attempted in the last game how much was that a focus coming in just

Getting those attempts up um I think it’s really important we can uh Master threes with uh B and Z’s uh and Z ability to get downhill um and JB when he’s in the pain and they want to throw doubles at him um I think uh we can kill

Him with the three so you got to pick your poison type type of matchup so I think it’s really important it’s going to be uh really helpful for us down in the future yeah and coming into T night uh the numbers were a little down for be

With his seven games was it like just seeing him breakout especially the way he did it with the passing with the three-pointers doing it in that way I mean I think he did a terrific job all across the board he had he played a great game um I know that uh he’s he’s

Mentally tough and and being able to come out here and and drop triple double uh it just just shows how tough he is mentally so my lot to him tonight you caught one at your feet and you still shot it is that something you practice that something like you just see over

And over for sure uh me and my me and my guy Brew brew and Z we definitely work on it uh work on the bad passes cuz I mean you’re not going to get a good pass every time so as a shooter you have to

Be ready uh to catch any type of pass and rise up so I definitely that’s something I definitely work on um so yeah Jordan going back to VI for a second how much did him really get off the start from three set the tone for

You guys yeah I mean how many threes he h today seven yeah I mean he can he can do that in master ability his mid-range ability I think he’s he’s Unstoppable so um it’s good uh he he definitely got got it started with the three points B three-pointers so

Um I got to ask you Z had a moment in the corner against lamelo ball defensively for that ter what do you think of that that was terrific I mean I we usually in the shift but I was like no he got it um I’m I’m going to let him

Handle the S so hey I I was terrific and I I was probably one of the best players of the season so hey Jordan I asked Willie about about you and just who do you kind of remind him of he mentioned some of the greatest three-point

Shooters in the game Island sta clay but what does that mean when you just hear accolades like that about you um got I mean uh I mean it’s that’s terrific um I mean I got a chance to meet with Ray Allen and uh and and rip he’s even

Though he’s probably I know it’s a great three-point but this the way he moves and and the and the way he just gets gets to his spots on the movement without even taking a dribble I do admire that um I mean Steph Curry I was just watching his highlights before the

Game so um I mean he he’s a terrific at C shooting the ball on the catch and on the move he can shoot the ball any single way he wanted to want him to so I watch a lot of guys like those Ray Allen uh and him to try to see way different

Ways I can get off my shot and I know I have a quick release so um you watch before every game no I just watched it before this game like while I was getting massage yeah I was just looked up Stuff Curry highlights you probably watch Friday to yeah I yeah I should

Watch Friday right yeah um you mentioned getting shots off when you know you’re were kind of off balance and that kind of thing how do you practice the part about you know sometimes the pass isn’t always going to be perfect is it just having somebody throw you a low pass or

Off just bad passes throw bad passes some sometimes roll it pass throw it high try to throw High kep keep High that’s I think that’s the next step for me like Klay Thompson he’s a lot he used to catch it uh from anywhere and shoot

It that’s why that’s the level I want to get to so just working on stuff like that uh just get you get getes you uh more shots get you more looks um when you can shoot like that uh so yeah you mentioned that you have a term of Brady

For certain type of passes what do you call it when nii dribbles on a fast break and throws a behind the back pass do you like that I mean that’s just that’s just a cool play so yeah that’s just that’s his chemistry right there and Jordan you and Tre both talked about

How you guys you know can form a formidable deal in the league now you actually play a few games next to him a lot of good pie ofs what do you think of this paring I mean it’s really fun out there um I be honestly I don’t think I

Play with a guy that can shoot the ball like that I mean arguably to shoot the ball better than me and like ever in my life to be honest with you so um it’s it’s really cool really fun to play out there I’m definitely looking for him

When I’m ever either when I’m driving and I know he’s looking for me um and we’re out there it is really fun out there so thank you
