West Coast Trip, All-Star Weekend | The Squad S3E6 | New Orleans Pelicans All-Access

West Coast Trip, All-Star Weekend | The Squad S3E6 | New Orleans Pelicans All-Access

It’s that time of time of year you know you pass halfway point you know you kind of glancing at the standing te there but the the thing for us is to focus on each and every game we got the two La teams back to back when we uh go to La and

That’s going to be I think that’s going to be a good test for us because one you know the End season tournament with the Lakers and then you know two with the Clippers what happened with us here last time we was home you know those are two really good

Teams they very physical team and they like to run they play fast but when they go small I think the same applies the physicality what do you guys do to kind of combat that to try to get the guys yourself a chance to win tonight we have to play fast and

Forceful up strong over James hard from the right block and it’s good number one we got to get stops Dyson Daniel just pick pocket whether it’s transition or half court getting into sets and plays with a with a force and physicality offensively that doesn’t allow them to

To be at their best see H in and lays it in over Tumbl lays it in N1 Zion taking over baby you kind of get into that aggressive mindset kind of make it easier for you that you have CJ as that outl there was a few times where they sent the double

You kick to CJ and he h still open three yeah it’s kind of one of those uh pick your poison I’ll kind of tell CJ Hulk Trey whoever it is on the court stay right there so they send a double team then I’m going to make the right

Play yes sir just a character win a character win we talked about this against uh one of the hottest teams in the league a worthy opponent on their home floor L that’s how we build okay that’s how we build you guys came out from the start game plan discipline was

High you dominated wire to wire and that’s what we’re capable of doing y’all earned it man keep going [Applause] [Applause] keep you know both teams standing Pat at the trade deadline no moves for either one one so right now all the focus shifts to making that stretch Run for

The postseason and positioning a strong road trip showing for your new orans Pelicans would be a huge boost heading into the All-Star break he’ll drive in and throw it down with the right hand Pelicans Russell for the heat check nothing but that 4744 but you can’t shut him up Dyson

Right corner three yes nothing but net for the Aussie 4747 it’s an all star game take that right wi [Applause] Three Time Out Willie Green 5247 bounce speed to Z and he DS it right over hot jamora we have to be consistent with the defensive end of of

The ball and that comes down to mindset if you’re going to hit tough shots that that happens but we can’t give up just easy layups and transition baskets we can’t do stuff like that cuz that’s when the game get out of hand [Applause] I think you judge a man and a woman by

How they react to adversity not by how they react to success the struggle builds character it builds a greater appreciation and it gives you a better understanding of what’s needed uh to have and to sustain a high level of playing success so I think it’ll it’ll

Pay off for us I mean that’s kind of just you know how life goes I mean you can expect things to go the way that you plan them too but there’s always going to be adversity at some point you know it’s uh it’s a big process it’s

A long season you got to stay down and stay focused what you do and the big picture is your [Applause] goal te together 2 if you’re just joining us no Z lson tonight and know D Danel Ingram mid-range at the nail buries it Jose leaving it off great

Pass Hain start stops drives on eighton left corner Naji with two got to pop it with one three quarter and he got it to go CJ drives on Walker kick it to Naji left wing three rattles in Naji Marshall big bucket 7770 two made threes in the fourth

Quarter for n he’s in double F uh real quick for me uh proud of you guys it’s hard to come in this building and win against a team that you know they have nothing to lose they just playing hard Scrappy um back to back for
