Trey Murphy III on big night, Herb Jones | Pelicans at Raptors Postgame 3/5/24

Now that you’ve had a second to let it all settle and marinate huge dominating wind to start this road trip what do you think was the key to going up so large away from home on a squad like this that gets out so well on the fast um I think

Herb Jones started for us he um came out the gates hitting a lot of shots playing well defensively and whenever he is know set a tone for us defensively I feel like our team as a whole you know follows behind him and um yeah I would

Think that’s what I would owe it to for like the start of the game we talk so much about Herb in our New Orleans Circle but for the rest of the world if you had to describe herb to somebody who wasn’t overly familiar with him what

Would you say one of the best human beings that you’ll ever meet he is super selfless he a lot of times I feel like he’s a little too selfless I think he needs to promote himself just a little bit more still working on that but he’s

Super humble and just one of the guys you just want to root for and um super down to earth and one of my best friends so I think everything that he has gotten and will get is what he deserves so you know I just think the world of her Jones

This connection between you and Zion seems to be getting better and better can you take us what that chemistry is like on the court I mean it’s really just he’s such a paint presence and I have an ability to shoot the ball at a high level and so when you mix those two

Together you kind of have to pick your poison as a defense on whether or not you want to help on his drives and leave me open or don’t help and then take away my threes and then you know left with a layup so you know it’s a it’s a tough

Tough little game you have to play but um I’m really getting getting to enjoy this Angel a question on a night like this you’re sinking 10 threes what gets you going versus another night that’s just more average um I don’t think anything changes I my mentality the

Entire time is just to shoot the ball like can’t make a you can’t make it if you don’t shoot it so that’s been the biggest thing for me staying consistent in my work trusting what I’ve been doing and shooting the ball with confidence yeah I’m asking that question

Because my my is from Barcelona and willome is is playing there um how do you remember your your time with Billy erome uh he was one of the best teammates I’ve ever had uh Billy was a light to the locker room and he always had a lot of energy and you know

Definitely dearly miss him a lot but I definitely hope he’s doing well where he is right now um uh with our what are you missing the the most or or sorry this do you remember any funny any funny story any curious story with with him in the

Locker room the Flor uh a lot of times just singing he was a big singer on the team and he used to make different songs for different players and so we all used to just gather around and just sing songs you know literally just singing somebody’s name and it’ll be a cool

Bonding moment that we had as a team in Spanish the songs no they were in English thanks thank you Tre I appreciate it I was say tonight you handed the Raptors our worst home loss in franchise history how does that feel to take business like that just another

Day in the office you know just playing our playing our Pelicans basketball I think that’s what I would just attribute to I don’t really think about you know the other team is really just us as long as we play and do what we’re supposed to do we’re going to win thanks
