  1. Forget the L, I just hope BI is okay and won’t miss too much time..

  2. Fuck man. Really hope BI is okay. Worst timing for this.

  3. The Pelicans are lucky they’re gonna see the Clippers in the first round – Willie’s smallball fetishism won’t hurt as much because Lue likes going small even more than Willie does

  4. Briguy_fieri

    We saw their team literally laughing in the second quarter because nothing could go wrong for them.

  5. This game was extremely frustrating especially after the hot start. I can not emotionally deal with BI being out for an extended period of time either.

  6. Last good teams we played:
    -Injured Cavs at home: Loss
    -Orlando: Loss
    -Indiana: splitted B2B
    -Clippers without Harden: win
    -Heat: loss at home
    I wont add Knicks because we played a G League team

  7. StockBroker32

    My mom says BI will be ok because he’s skinny lol, he’s our favorite player let’s hope he’ll be ok

  8. Slappyslappyslappy

    Not one to complain about the refs constantly but the magic were allowed to play with a level of physicality that we were not. Complete bullshit and someone from the organization needs to pay a fine. They are already a difficult match up for us, but it’s hard to watch on nights like this.

    Shoot more 3’s for the love of Christ.

    Please be okay BI.

  9. whatjever

    I’m gonna chalk up our consistent lack of 3’s to coaching. I always get downvoted for this, but there’s no reason why we can’t put up 30+ attempts a game. At this point, it’s just being complacent.

  10. Lyte_Work

    Prayers up for BI. That’s the only thing worth saying tonight.

  11. Cautious-Apartment-9

    Only positive is the Kings lost as well

  12. Razor-Ramon-Sessions

    We got out rebounded. We turned the ball over. We didn’t shoot, or make, enough 3s.

    Their size was definitely a factor for us. The magic are huge. They also shot well as a team.

  13. Infinite_Response113

    At least the Kings lost… so still up at least 2 games on everyone behind us.

    Worried about Mavs tho. 2 games behind and they have one of the easiest schedules. and BI out on our end. I’ll take a scenario rn where mavs steal 5th seed from us but we keep 6th and BI is back for 1st round.

  14. SpaceAfricanJesus

    Herb had a nice game. Nobody on the bench outside of Trey did anything, and Trey had a super efficient 21 points too. Zion had 8 turnovers 🤮half of them were offensive fouls.

    Cherry on top of the shit Sunday was BI getting hurt. 0/10 would not recommend this game.

  15. Mesame121489

    I hope BI is ok and it’s a simple hyperextension. The bench outside of Trey didn’t show up on either sides of the ball. CJ was terrible. Z didn’t take care of the ball. And I really feel Matt should get some burn if we aren’t shooting/ making 3s. I really dislike when teams are allowed to get physical with us but we get ticky tack fouls called on the other end. The best thing I can say about this game is Z is starting to run through people the refs let way too much go when it comes to him so I like him throwing elbows to send a message. Let’s go get ready for the Heat.

  16. whatjever

    Also, wish for everyone to be healthy… but looks like Huerter going down is a huge break for the Pelicans if BI isn’t out for the season. They just sold to the Wizards.

  17. Ok-Comfortable1111

    Whenever the league wants us to lose they just start calling charges on Zion. It’s the easiest way to take him out of the game

  18. maejor_ced

    Now here comes the anxiety of opening up my phone to bad news tomorrow morning 😨

  19. ENProcess

    Why can’t the media just let us win in peace, no media coverage = wins

  20. treadwater23

    I hope BI is alright for you guys. Thought they banged knees at first, but replay looked different obviously. Hope he isn’t out long at all, he’s a killer. Feel like both of our teams are built similarly with a lot of depth and young guys so I’m rooting for you guys to make noise out West. Also… I know our team has some punchable faces btw, Ingles/Moe annoy me and they’re on my team lol.

  21. Kindly_Boysenberry_7

    Why did we shoot no fucking threes? Saw a graphic at one point – when we were ONLY down since digits – and they were like X/23 and we had shot 10 threes.

    TEN.

    TEN.

    How is that possible?

  22. God forbid but If BI has gotten seriously hurt I hope they just come straight out and tell us. None of this day-to-day for two weeks bullshit or, re-evaluation after re-evaluation. Just tell us straight.

  23. RaspberryOld6983

    Thinking we need to move to Baton Rouge and rebrand as the Baton Rouge Beignets. Either the city is cursed, or the Smoothie King Center is on an ancient Mayan burial ground.

    Prayers up for BI man, I usually don’t drink, but Brandon Ingram, I’ll be drinking about you big time my man.

    So many damn onions getting cut right now 😥

  24. Aggravating-Lake-717

    They mugged Z all game, yet they called offensive on his drives. Nonsense

    Ingram, hope he’s alright. Hope it’s not serious 

  25. Sure_Ad8093

    Hopefully the Pels won’t meet the Magic in the NBA finals this year. Tough matchup. 

  26. flaccidplatypus

    Every magic player looks like they were conceived in a nuclear reactor. Suggs has a worse hairline than Trae which I didn’t think was possible either.
