bother cash back Made Easy and by Smoothie King rule the day the drives in finger Roll che’s Todd gravan wow all right here we go baby it’s the pelicans and the Blazers from Portland tonight’s keys to the game presented by iata iata cash back Made Easy well the pels will have to rebound defensively because Portland averages 12.4 offensive rebounds a game and 16 Second Chance points and in the last five games they’ve averaged 14 offensive rebounds so the pells need to rebound defensively also the bench was important against Phoenix out scoring the Phoenix Sun 34 to7 Off the Bench that is huge and hopefully that can continue in this one and also the PS need to find their why in this game look generate your own energy because you’re playing a team that’s 21- 57 you don’t want to look at the scoreboard you don’t want to look at the records you got to play to your level which they did with a little bit of desperation on Sunday yeah we’ll leave the scoreboard watching uh to Gus cill and Chris Moran in the studio back home in New Orleans you’re officiating crew tonight Ed Malloy is the crew chief Ray aosta the referee Chay Flores the Umpire PS in the red statement Edition uniform tonight dark blue lettering and numerals front and back Pelicans by the way this year are 10-2 on the road wearing red and three and three on the road on Tuesday night the black icon Edition uniform for the Blazers I think Jerome KY was out there in the center circle with the tip how’s that did I just date myself you really dat DeAndre Aiden wins the tip on valent Tunis Portland ball moving left to right to start the ball game scoot Henderson wearing dble zero left hand dribble Drive center of the lane running floater off the glass is good Anderson is fourth in rookie points per game at 13 and a half two nothing herb Jones will bring it in the front Court get a pick from Zion put the brakes on Jess it down low yonas off the glass and he got the roll lot of friendly rolls the last couple of games saw a bunch of them in Phoenix and that’s just the way you draw it up Zion on the pick and roll rolls to the hoop he draws the attention and then big JV standing on the Baseline by himself all right Henderson chess it around the perimeter left corner rupair for three no and Zion Williamson who had 10 rebounds and a double double against the Suns gets the board get it to Herb drives right on eight but misses the floater off the glass rebound DeAndre at you’ll hear that a lot tonight now Jabari Walker almost stepped out of bounds right Baseline but saved it up top and eight will knock down that mid-range will heal do that about 10 times tonight yeah he’s got 30 double doubles but in the last five 23 points 13 rebounds a game that is as deadly a nail jumper as you will ever see CJ McCullum back in Portland dump it to Jonas he get hacked on the way up by Jabari Walker that was one of the keys in that win back in February here is we got Jabari Walker in early foul trouble and that’s something you’d like to do here tonight even though they’re going to call the following eighton Walker’s had three straight double doubles and he’s had 53 rebounds in the last three games yis valun is already more effective than he was on Sunday played four minutes missed that first free throw played four minutes in that game and really was a nonf factor good pass from CJ to set him up he’s just got to make him right on the Finish or at least at the foul line and he missed the free throw as JD mentioned at the second 43 Portland 90 seconds in brief backourt pressure here by herb Jones but scoot Henderson wearing the goggles will bring it across the timeline kick it out right corner Chris Murray for three that’s an air ball it drops on the deck and it’s taken by Trey Murphy and one and done is going to be key tonight as Zion too many passes had it deflected out right through Trey Murphy’s hand it goes into the back court we’re going to have a jump ball Trey Murphy if he was playing Short Stop would have been charged with an E6 yes he would have do for it and whiffed but he does come back dive for that one got his hands on it I think he was looking to call the timeout they just couldn’t get the signal up for fast enough so a rare Center Circle jump ball as it’ll be Murphy and Chris Murray Trey’s looking at his teammate seeing where he wants to tap this one and Murray wins it mve Point Henderson front court right herbs on him floats it to eight top of the key that’s his range two in a row you called it and that’s the shot that the pills said he was going to take to they shoot around that’s his shot if you watch eighton warm up the man from the free throw line of the top of the key never misses it’s incredible it’s amazing that he goes through fits of droughts where he almost looks disinterested now Trey Murphy wide open right Wing three back iron no good weak side rebound Chris Murray so the pels have started out one out of three from the floor Henderson drives hard underneath the hoop too hard of a pass though we cutting Chris Murray and it’s out of bounds they’re going to turn the ball over they’re going to turn it over the pills in the two games the pills have won against them they turned it over an average of 19 times for 28 pills points Zion hard to the rim he got right Baseline and then reverses it with a left hand as he beat deand eight I mean we are seeing the best version of Z uhoh it was the best version of an alley scoot Henderson to DeAndre Aon and a reverse dunk well he set up for the mid-range and he faked him out like he was going to set the screen and they Dove to the basket now Williamson pounded by Jabari Walker up top Jonas they leave him alone trade away three he cannot make a wide openen three he hadn’t made a three in a month of Sunday and a rebound to Henderson who throws it out of bounds again can you take advantage of their miscues yeah they’re going to give you the opportunities if you’re the pills it’s pretty simple now you just got to make your open shots make your teammate right when they make the right basketball play Murphy hand it off to McCullum CJ left to the top pop a three yes sir he might have had the worst shooting night of his life when we were here in February and I’m not exaggerating it right he couldn’t make anything yeah he’s he’s he’s got it back he is now at 214 threes for the season his career high now eight and underneath he will be stripped still somehow got it back but there’s Walker actually Murray excuse me and then we knock it away from him and Zion steals it chess it up to for McCullum CJ crosses over scoot Henderson drives in and will scoop it in with a right hand I think we have to give Trey Murphy the credit on that one because he wouldn’t let Aon dunet forced him on the layup attempt and pills come out of the scrum with the basketball five straight for CJ and the pels lead 10 to eight now Walker nearly walk got it in the corner to Murray back to Walker left corner three High arcing no weak side rebound Trey Murphy again one and done for the Blazers offensively Murphy beautiful crossover drives and kick it to Jonas wide open three again no no no we can’t even talk him into one no oh come on JV Anderson up top around eight get it left corner Murray extra pass three ball that is ruper the 19-year-old Frenchman knocks it down it’s 11 to 10 with the bound to make some of them because they get wide open looks and the PS having the defensive rotation they want in close mullum three right at the top yes sir he loves this building how many of those did he make in his nine-year career in Portland Mr President is not to be toyed with on this evening so far for CJ HS up 1311 he’s got the last eight points does McCullum eight in mid-range oh he missed one McCullum the rebound chess it to Z had a steam Z center of the lane floats short and it’s taken by eight very aggressive just missed the finger R for the left hand three ball scoot Henderson is short left to the top rebound herb Jones is a track meet so far herb Euros in floats it up no with a left hand but a foul on repair and with that we’ll have Timeout on the Flor and her Jones giving us his Josh Hart impersonations here this season where he will get the rebound and just push it down the opposing team’s throat until he gets to the Rim free throws for herb and we come back 618 left first quarter Pelicans 13 Blazers 11 on the Pelicans Radio Network [Applause] seeks the ticketing app for fans like the sideline shot CER come on boys pick up the BCE

premium Todd ranini John Des shes it with you in Portland 618 left first quarter Pelicans 13 and Portland 11 an early game here so far but already Portland three turnovers seven impels points off those turnovers in including a couple of Threes so Hill’s benefiting from all the benevolence so far all herb Jones at the free throw line knocks the first one down substitutions in for both teams Larry Nance in for Jonas Valen chunis and Delano bon in excuse me in for the Blazers he has been a find after coming over in a trade from Boston at the deadline for peanuts by the way Henderson ruper back out to scoot right wing floated in the paint eight and he walked good job by Larry Nance who fronted him right on his back hip front of him and then got underneath him as he wanted to make that turn to the basket so Larry with the great footwork defensively and the pills are going to be playing this small lineup now so get used to it folks this is this is the way it’s going to look P’s on a 10-3 run here and a four-point lead Nance all alone get it left free throw line extended now Z I mean aon’s just parked in the paint not guarding anybody McCullum left at the top for three wide open fun iron no good and Nance tapped the rebound out of bounds that’s mccullum’s first Miss and I mentioned the last time we were here McCullum in that game which the pels won 9384 had eight points he was two of 14 from the floor and one of nine from distance as Henderson knocks a left wing three 32% three-point shooter at scoop Henderson now the pel’s coaches have to make the officials aware that eight and didn’t G anybody just stand in the lane Dan right corner get it to z z guards or drives on eight Falls throws it no and that’s eight the second foul free throws coming up for Williamson the aggressive Zion Williamson is the best version of Zion Williamson that one and the ticked off Zion Williamson so Z who was brilliant in Phoenix by the way this kind of went unnoticed other than the 40 minutes he played remember he missed his first free throw of the day and then made his last seven he wound up going seven for eight at the free throw line against the Suns as Jose alval Checks In okay folks if he misses any direct the vitriol to graphin comma Todd coming up from the person who was talking about valent Unis at the free throw L before he missed his first one which I did not say anything so I mean you got a lot of nerve partner Henderson Aly eight throw it down DeAndre eight he was already cooking us well and the Bel went through Che around you have to start their guards out High you’ve got to stop them out high now z a beautiful spin move but his early shots here in the paint are not falling a little bit far away for that finger roll Henderson bounce feed to eight shuffles his feet spins right throws up a right hand hook and down yeah he’s going to be impossible to stop because you’re playing under sized and he’s going to be able to get his shots off and how about chy Bops leaving eight in with two fouls M Murray or excuse me Murphy lost it back out long herb Jones up top Trey straightaway three that is long off his hand and the rebound goes to Jabari Walker Portland with an 1817 lead the PS are off to a very slow start shooting the ball oh and let’s not forget Jose Alvarado and Scoot Henderson not fans of one another Banton throws it out left corner to ruper back out to B right wing we had 20 points against us in the first half in New Orleans B drives into a cutting eight too strong of a pass deflected and stolen by Murphy Trey front Court drives in hard lays it in with a right hand see now that’s the Trey Murphy who’s going to expand his game and be a just about Unstoppable score because he extends you out so far because of his three-point range 198 they’re about to take eight and out of the game as Henderson is hand checked by Alvarado as Ed maroy somehow had x-ray vision and saw through scoot Henderson’s body to make that call don’t worry there’ll be a lot more of those tonight just throwing that out there folks all right Subs in dwap reath and Justin maniah in for the Blazers eighton and ruper out eighton already with 10 points and three rebounds in eight minutes Bell’s up one wath to handerson crosses over picks up his dribble though calling wreath out right of the lane Bump by her by out of bson cheap fou but one we’re used to with herb herb has the defense as the extra Defender but he can’t squeeze down quickly enough to prevent fouling you can already tell it’s shaping up to be a you just got to get more points in the other team type of game it already has that feel 333 left in the first quarter inbound to Henderson herbs first team second don’t leave him alone straightway three back iron no good rebound Z ches AL verado now you’re running Jose front Court left shoves it to Williamson bumped by Walker and cuts him off now Z on the left block powers in fls it up left hand good and one Z with a little Fade Away jumper look this this whole midi Z thing I’m liking I’m liking a lot he played through the contact and the soft touch what he did also when he drew the contact he was moving to his right and switched to his left hand midair and floated it in Great awareness to get the shot up free throw no got the roll so Williamson now seven points now is he getting Shooters bounces I’m I’m not exactly sure what to make of this don’t ask questions Henderson Coast to Coast Al G yeah you throw up the lob and he drops it like it’s hot Jose thought he was going to GTA scoot Henderson 2220 New Orleans three minutes left in the first quarter Williamson goes through three Defenders there’s another foul all night long that’s on scoop I mean that’s just such a mismatch especially if that’s not eighton on the back line and if you’re guarding him with a small he’s going to punish that small free throws for Zion when we come back 256 up first quarter New Orleans 22 Portland 20 the Pelicans

particularly well 7 to 15 from the field Z makes the first foul shot but they have scored seven nine points off five turnovers and they are now seven of eight from the foul line so that’s where the advantage has been so far in this game Williamson already with eight points and a couple of rebounds big at nine 2420 256 left so they’ve got manah Henderson reath Banton and Walker do the Blazers PS with McCullum Nance Alvarado Williamson and Jones got a back door cut somebody got a foot in there I believe it was Z kick save and a beauty and Dyson D will check in for Williamson who played basically the first nine minutes of this first quarter and watch this Jose scoot Henderson match up his Jose thinks he can take it from scoot Henderson we’re gonna see if he’s correct right Mana sideline left inbound it to Henderson up top chess it to reath pop a right wing three you kidding me D re well he’s got 83 threes now yeah he does that’s eighth in rookie threes so you can’t leave him alone to 36% 2423 New Orleans up by one man had the ball slapped away from him by Walker got it back now CJ running right hand floater that is money from mullum especially as of late early CJ got it cooking here four five from the field three straight 30-point games hadn’t done that since he literally became a pelican a couple of years ago in his second week now Reed got three hand it off to Jabari Walker who duns it in poor defense on that one no rotation whatsoever H passed up a left wing three got it to Jose Jose at the dotted line won’t take a shot though get it out long to McCullum CJ step back straightway three front iron rebound Nance he throws it out of bounds he got bumped and he thought he got foul got Push by Reed is trying to kick it out to Jose Alvarado and he didn’t have an angle slipped off his hand Dyson Daniels and checked in Dyson un listed is questionable after shoot around today he’s got a right got a white sleeve on that right leg as Henderson is fouled by Alvarado tough night already for Jose who’s been whistled now for two fouls in four minutes first in the last two minutes well we know the passion that Jose plays with but every now again you got to throttle back pills well if he doesn’t throttle back he’s going to come out of the game for a while pill’s going in that zone that will hopefully protect him from committing the foul now B left corner manah pump fake back up top Banton for three back iron long rebound though to Walker kick it to Henderson Dyson on the switch Henderson to Banton for three FR iron somebody get it and it’s tipped and it’s taken by McCullum CJ front Court between circles little crossover got a pick from n drives in there’s a high arcing right hand floater below the nail nothing but net bring the rain CJ a propo here in Portland we got dumped on earlier today and then the sun came out about 45 minutes later wreath another three back iron and ball on the deck boy Walker had the rebound foul he did up the floor McCullum CJ leftand dribble kick it out left corner Jose stop and pop three that’s an nearly an air ball weak side rebound off the rim to Banton shot clock game clock 8 Seconds Apart Jose made five threes in Phoenix on Sunday made his first four yes he did so they’ll milk this down here with the shot clock and 10 Henderson left and right hand dribble in the Trailblazer logo now he’s got to go with four say Jose needs some discretion there drives in Baseline jumper can’t defend that left side that is a tough shot now Dyson will not defend better than that that’s a Brandon Ingram M range McCullum with one drives into the paint Lefty layup short and that’ll do it for the first quarter and the pels with a one-point lead over the Blazers as we head to the second well not a particularly great quarter offensively PS nine to 20 from the field but two for eight nine nine two for nine from three-point range so they got to get it going from there and CJ Mccalla makes both of those three so need a little help in that area all right head to the second pels up 12827 on the Pelicans radio network Janet Jack presents together again live for one incredible night in New Orleans Janet

ticketmaster.com Parker McCullum [Music] live pels need to flip the light switch on immediately have not scored in the second quarter we’ve got 830 to go and they’re down nine here 3728 and down to 39% from the field Portland playing that zone so shot should be on the perimeter Trey deep deep straight away three nowhere near yeah you can get a better shot than that rebound eight you can get a better shot than that they’ve got to work the basketball around and get in the lane they can get a better shot than that now scoot Henderson floats it up will get the roll it ain’t getting any better it’s a 120 quarter for the Portland Trailblazers this is smart defensively from Portland you got a team that can’t make a shot from the perimeter go to your Zone and force them to make shots from the perimeter Dyson dropped bear floater right Baseline that’s a good find up top from McCullum yeah and smart for Dyson to not settle for the three in the corner go Baseline and work on that floater yeah rare Baseline floater usually it’s in the pain above the restricted Arc free ball manah no rebound Zion Williamson is third hell’s down nine here 725 left in the second Williamson spins left throws it out to McCullum takes the three drives in running right hand shot no but he got his own rebound now chess it out long to Trey Murphy Murphy left corner her for three thank youy see you drive a little bit you draw the defense you kick there’s a wide open look from three they just got to make the wide open looks from three we started out really slow from three and then Jose made those two in the second quarter in Phoenix and then everybody caught up 3933 now ruper in got it to Murray out long to scoot Henderson Dyson on him shot clock at three now Aon got it in deep and once you do that you might as well start going the other way yeah well P play point Z and then Center Z on defense and he gets his against is eight eight Trey left of the top catch and shoot three is good and now hopefully this becomes contagious you see one fall and now everybody’s joining in eight with 12 points three rebounds after that hook shot he gets deep against anybody in this lineup it’s over it is Hells down by five now repair hard of the rack that got blocked by z z blocked it rebound Dyson chess it up the floor Trey avoids contact and finger rolls it in with a right hand that is a fantastic lead pass from Dyson Daniels to hit his teammate in stride and the pill a 10 to two run and down three now so they have flipped the switch a little bit scoot Henderson left wing guarded by her still dribbling now up top just take a three yikes so easy that is not a man who makes a lot of Threes mullum hard in off the glass no won’t get it rebound eight he’s looking for the foul he hunting for the foul doesn’t get the call and now they’re on the on the run the other way Henderson looking to take take another three we’ll back it way out near the center circle he’s already got 12 points and seven assists now he picked up his dribble get it down low to eight catches floats yeah all he’s got to do is make the catch once he gets that deep all he’s got to do is make the catch the PS don’t have enough size and Jonas Valen junas at the scor table to come back in to give them some size so you got it down to three and it’s back up to eight Trey another three right wing that’s back on no good rebound repair so Murphy is now one of five from distance that ain’t going to cut it Anderson out long to manah now floated down left block Aon follow away Baseline jumper the man just staring at our bench he is cooking the Pelicans well he’s just looking around Portland on a 70 run saying you you got you don’t have anybody that can guard me right now fella Zion doubled get it out long to Dyson crosscourt pass over to CJ right corner three barely Ripple the net you know Dyson made a couple of great passes he makes the pass on The Fast Break to tree and then the skip pass right there to CJ in the right Corner’s got three of our five made threes he’s got 15 points thank goodness he’s got to have a little bit of a little bit he’s got to have a lot of help there is no help Henderson left hand dribble chess it over to Murray left wing three [Music] Murray 5141 Portland a team that doesn’t shoot threes very very well they’re shooting threes very well Z had a steam bump throws it up no fouls it up despite all kind of contact from DeAndre eight yeah that’s it’s like they’re not blowing the whistle yeah the end result is what you want it to be the bucket but still baby should have been a foul should have been at the foul let these God sheot open threes because they’re feeling it ruper rounding out with a rightwing three all they’re doing is taking threes other than eight now McCullum sto top three front iron no good deflected taken by manah hell’s down 5143 here as eighton will miss the alley terrible pass off the glass Trey had a steam Bump by manah but he didn’t get the shot up I don’t think no he did not got grabbed before he can get into The Gather remember they’ve already used the second mediate timeout so we’re playing this out the rest of the quarter no wait all right we got free throws here for Trey who appears a little winded I’ll tell you what that did not look like a shooting a shot attempt we’ll take it though good right Jon in he’s in for Z gotta have some SS because Aon is really really eating up the small lineup so now you got somebody that hopefully can push him out a little bit farther eighton season high is 34 he is halfway there well a little less than halfway was 16 5145 and the pels have not shot it well at all but only down six pills are in that zone again so let’s see if they can close the gaps Henderson now feed to Jabari Walkers back in along Henderson now get it to Chris Murray right hand dribble Drive pops the Lefty mid-range no weak side rebound Valentina says give me that herb Jones now front Court Dyson Daniels it to JV chess it over Far Side now to Herb shovels to McCullum McCullum back up top valent Tunis he ain’t taking that three hand it back to McCullum got a pick bounce Fe back to JV running down the lane and a right hand Spike that’s the way you do it see JV does not want to take that three but he works himself into position with that pick so he can roll to the basket and get something easier for himself five points for Valen junas pels down four now with two and a half left in the second quarter Henderson up top switches to a right hand dribble get it to aen at the nail ating a couple of pump fakes crosses over drives on JV Follow White jumper he ain’t going to stop that what are you gonna do you’re not gonna stop that he just not eighton is nine for 11 he he’s just gonna have to miss that shot you can’t block it Murphy for three left wing after a little Nifty step to the left knocked it down nothing but net timeout Chanty Bellis he uses the pseudo screen by Jonas Valen chunis who pretends like he got to set the screen well he’s out there to set the screen but Trey doesn’t use it he goes left and shoots the wide open jumper because courtland’s playing him to come off the screen so 203

yeah and they’ve gotten a couple of defensive stops they need to be a little bit better better especially against DeAndre Aton who’s n of 11 from the field Henderson Banton Aon Walker Murray eight left elbow sizing up Murphy now right wing handerson Murphy on the switch step back three front iron rebound Dyson good defense that worked out well Aiden came up from the Baseline right up to the free throw line but he didn’t have an open look they closed him off Jonas up top to Murphy back to Herb now left block JV backing down Aon right hand hook no he shortened the release cuz he had him beat yeah too much that’s too much Fain now Jabari Walker over to Henderson get it in the lane eight go back the other way well he’s on the weak side against CJ McCullum he flashed to the middle and there’s not enough size there quickly enough to prevent that shot it’s a 20po half for DeAndre Aiden who’s looking to score 50 tonight McCullum in got aen up in the air they didn’t call it dumped it down to JV who got hacked no blood no foul and we’ll go back the other way they leave with half an ear like a Vander Holyfield now Walker in deep missed the layup he just blew it rebound Daniels we got a break he sealed and got the layup and just missed it now Trey wide open left wing but they closed out on him low block left side JV backing down Aiden Fall Away no rebound Walker 5550 this has been a frustrating half of basketball for New Orleans specifically from Valen judis there’s now two of seven from the Flor shot clock game clock seven apart Henderson with herb on the switch drives crosses over gets to the rim right corner Aon passes up to three Murray at the buzzer it was in his hand wave it off yeah that was in his hand half second from a disaster but it’s a shot clock violation yep oh that’s close that was that is real real real close I mean they’re looking but I think that was on his hand inbound the ball immediately yeah it’s on that is literally as close as it gets so you’ve got 7.2 seconds left in the second quarter well just give it back to Z and let him steam roll yep there you go he’s got it across the timeline with three and they’ve got a foul to give that’s smart play it is three seconds to go Mana took it yeah but he’s at half court we’ve seen ziko F Court in 3.9 seconds so three seconds should be a [Music] breeze all right Dyson s on left on the hash mark might get a three here McCullum drives in nail floater got the roll at the Mota Center and despite the Pelican shooting 41% you got a 17 point first half from McCullum and you’re only down three at half time and that floater might have been from the foul line hopefully the PS can get it together here offensively in the second half you know the defense had been great obviously with them shooting 56% from the field and the PS down in the 40s but hopefully they can get both sides of the basketball together in the second half all right halftime in Portland Trail lasers 55 Pelicans 52

you [Music] back in the motor Center Todd gravini John de shaser with you get set for the third quarter as the Portland Trailblazers lead the Pelicans 5552 again didn’t shoot the ball great did Force some turnovers but they allowed defensively didn’t the war 55.8% from the field against the Blazers and my my partner being kind to the shooting percentage pels 9 of 24 38% in that second quarter fortunate to only have lost that quarter 28 to 24 so if they can get it together here offensively you feel pretty good because I think the offense will hopefully fuel the defense all right New Orleans ball out of the halftime break herb Jones Zion Williamson CJ McCullum yonis Valen chunis and Trey Murphy on the floor Portland back in that zone they’re going to force the pill they’re going to force you to make jumpers CJ they left him alone he won’t pull the trigger though now top of the KZ takes it right at Walker three Defenders and an easy block shot yeah too late to the shot clock and that was just I don’t know if the pills were surprised by that or not scoot Henderson with a no look pass down low reverse lay of Jabari Walker that is already now a career high in assist for scoot Henderson who’s got a double double with 12 points and 10 and 11 assists wide open three CJ right at the top good yeah the shot’s going to be wide open JV flashes the foul line in the middle of the Zone The Zone has to collapse defensively all you got to do is swing it to the open shooter by the way the uh Blazers are second to last in field goal percentage in the NBA at 44% second to last not tonight Henderson nailed jumper yep 5955 no defense at all being played the looks are way too easy now Z hard in on Aon blocked from behind right to Herb Jones though get it to JV back to McCullum deep left wing three welcome back to the Mota Center CJ he’s been pretty much it he’s carrying the pels offensively totally in this game he’s going to have to have some help five made threes 218 on the season the New Orleans franchise record is 231 by the way as we knock it away with valent Tunis and stolen her boun the JV who’s running the floor and he flushes it down with two hands get on the horse big fella and a great bounce pass from herb it’s started defensively we’ve turned this team over now 10 times for 15 points but you just got to take advantage of these wide open looks offensively and you got to get a few defensive stops a few more Bells lead by one Murray lost they got it back spins left now double deflected by McCullum and stolen on one bounce feed to Trey missed the dunk because he got shoved from behind and free throws coming up defense leading to offense that’s how you’re going to turn around this game because you’re not playing good enough defense in terms of shooting percentage but you are turning them over and you’re able to score that way again you’ve forced this team in the the previous two games and average of 19 turnovers for 28 points that is a ton you’re at 11 turnovers and 15 points in this game so you’re on schedule just got to keep it up looks like he got a little Blood on the hand y so Tom mayad we’ll check that out really can’t afford well we’re going to get kind of a mini time out here about can’t afford to have him out the way the way our bench is performing tonight you can’t afford to have any starters out no no and I mean this is somewhat disappointing after a 34 yeah to9 I think oh 34 to7 against the Suns on Sunday you hope the bench production would be a little bit more consistent now you don’t always expect five threes from Jose Al Alvarado but you like to get a little something out of in the NBA they call this an infectious delay with the blood and it seems to have been cleared up on CJ’s right hand wrist you get a real close look at it so Trey Murphy will step to the foul line tra you got to foul him in that situation of here Portland which is the right play because otherwise he’s duck it on your head throw rattles in Murphy and he had a 10-point second quarter and it happened in a hurry made a couple of Threes gets them both and now the pels are up 6259 942 to go in the third 10- two run here yeah defense to offense if you continue to do it Henderson guarded by Z right wing looking for a pick dotted from ruper Henderson get it to Aon drives in deflected got it back on the right Baseline shot clock at five shovels to Henderson pop a right corner three no and Trey Murphy fouled him that is a brutal foul faild him out brutal challenge don’t foul you’re at the end of the shot clock you know they’re in a bit of desperation you challenge them you don’t foul these will be the first three free throws of the evening for Portland so again Henderson is averaging 13 and a half three rebounds and five assists that assist totals going to go up tonight he already has 11 first free throw is good it’s his seventh double double of his rookie season obviously playing one of his better games of the season if you’re the pills you hate that he picked the night for it damn what a bailout so Henderson trying to tie it up now with the three free throws yeah I mean you got him in a position where he’s going to take a tough shot so which was no good by yeah you want to challenge the shot and it’s easier said than done from here challenge the shot but don’t commit the foul got all three and we’re tied at 62 16 and 11 for the rookie scoot Henderson out of maretta Georgia B come out of that zone Z hard of the rack avoids Aiden and lays it in with a left hand amazing a man that size can scissor between Defenders and he scissored between Walker and eighton now Henderson to Walker right free throw line extended back to scoot scoot guarded by herb now step back that’s a line jumper front iron no good Z back tap the rebound out to the Blazers and then eight will convert no he won’t and we don’t rebound it again Murray for three offensive rebounds offensive rebounds and you know this team is going to offensive rebound that is what they do probably better than anything oh they had three chances at it Trey left wing three from Zion Ripple the net Trey Murphy got to get back defensively and now you’re getting some help offensively if you’re CJ McCollum from your teammates eight right hand shot foot dotted line and down tied at 67 he feels real comfortable from that spot real comfortable eight with 22 and 11 of 14 from the floor yonas I mean they’re just leaving him wide open Chess it to Williamson under eight minutes left in the third Z drives in Lefty finger all won’t get the rad got his own rebound follow up no and oh he looking for the foul Ain going to happen rebound Jabari Walker now has eight tied at 67 740 to go in the third Henderson two-man game with eight get it to ruper ruper SP spins right shovels to Aon he’ll follow away Baseline you will miss that one short and the rebound to Murphy Outlet to McCullum CJ left side drives on Henderson put it up no roll but free throws coming up for CJ as scoot Henderson just picked up his second foul in the ball game and CJ gives him the slow and go he slows down on him and then he hits another gear draws the contact and now he goes to the foul line Zion over there to the officials trying to explain why he’s not or trying to explain the contact he’s drawing and Ed Malloy Says Z get on your block there so McCullum

the quarter and they forced another couple of turnovers and scored four points off those turnovers so now up to 11 Force turnovers 17 points 20 points it’s his 11th 20-point Game of the Year Hill’s up five now Hills working that zone defensively Henderson bounce feed to B drives in took steps then we strip it with herb and taken by JV 12 turns now Z left block backing down Walker triple team up top herb for three around and out followed up and in with a right hand by Jonas valent chunis BMB big man ball Jonas making his presence in this one four minutes against the Suns on Sunday but now he’s on the court and he’s making a difference Hells with their largest lead Henderson from the nail says take that largest lead 19 points and 13 rebounds for scoot 13 assists for scoot Henderson Trey deep right wing three no rebound Walker up the FL Banton right side now eight and up top straightway three Brick City rebound B Tunis Walker went over the back they didn’t call it outet to Williamson Z get it to Trey extra pass McCullum fakes the three back to Murphy Murphy drives into the lane dishing for Williamson and a two hand throw down that’s beautiful Trey beat him off the dribble because again he is a three-point threat able to get to the hoop and Zion standing on the Baseline by himself 15 for Williamson pells up 766 9 Henderson Bump by McCullen left wing still dribbling crosses over back to Aon at the nail yep 7671 I think Henderson might end up with 30 assists if this keeps up and Aon can make that shot in his sleep literally with a blindfold on now mullum that ball got kicked mccullum’s hurt yeah got the hand that was bleeding is the one that is that he’s working right now it’s a turnover Henderson looking for more whip it left corner Murray drives in on F herb throws it up that’s a late Whistle by Ed Malloy well I think herb got hooked in the beginning and that’s what he’s arguing about he got his arm hooked by Murray and then he’s basically running side by side with him almost CH Murray his twin brother Keegan we’ll see him in two nights in Sacramento as Alvarado will check in he’s coming in for CJ CJ’s got to get a little bit of Care on that hand I believe thr though is good for muray who’s Jose coming in for but no it’s not CJ we got six on the all right haven’t often seen this lineup oh no it’s McCullum Alvarado jump Murphy and Valas both so Murray now in double figures with 11 and the pels are up by three they’re not going away folks McCullum spot up rightwing three no strong side rebound herb Jones whips it up top JV extra pass Trey deep left wing three yes indeed Second Chance Point kick it out to to JV you find your shooter who’s Tree on the left wing and tree is warm 23 for Murphy four of nine from distance Henderson for three up top up front no rebound valent chunis Hells up six with the ball McCullum splits Defenders kick it out in the corner Alvarado extra pass herb right wing two and rebound eight that is as wide open as you’re going to get yeah they’ve had a few of those got to make your teammate right when you get the right basketball play make him right now eight d whip it to nobody I mean that was a blitz double by Murphy and McCullum and Aon thought somebody was on the left wing the only people there sitting in the very expensive seats well Keegan Murphy Keegan Murphy Keegan Murray was rotating up high and he threw it where Murray was rather than where he was going bells are 10 of 27 from distance four for Murphy five for McCullum oh Jose back door cut great pass from Valen chunis and the righty Florida for Alvarado if the big man can make his presence known he’s got to play some minutes and he’s got to be more effective than he has been the last couple of games but he’s playing well in this one HS up eight now Walker left Baseline reverse Right Scoop no there’s eight though don’t F him just let him lay it in just let him lay it in 30 excuse me 26 for DeAndre eight can’t take him out we hadn’t picked up a foul since the first quarter Alvarado to Jonas up top chess it to Trey Murphy float it back down to JV one dribble right hand floater finish four of 11 get the shots you want got to make them get the shots you want Anderson beautiful crossover to the hoie got cut off and walked instead threw it away to McCullum that’s a ball on line turnover right there up the floor Murphy drives in

Pelicans not making any substitutions eight mid-range no Trey rebounds it Outlet pass to Dyson Daniels just checked in Trey with a good lead now aen pretty much settled for his jumper Jose wide open left wing three it a Jose’s night but then Nance tipped the rebound to himself off the glass up top Trey straight away three from Eugene he’s warm that’s a heat check for a wideopen guy you got to take that shot if you’re Trey Murphy deep and down for Murphy pels up 88775 Henderson tries to answer off the front iron no good rebound Williamson up the floor Jose shovels to z z up top oh he didn’t take it though now he’ll step back and take it anyway but it’s no good should have taken it when he caught it he should have caught in shot in Rhythm on the catch and shoot now left corner maniah to Banton who of course knocks it down from the left wing oh Trey’s got nine of the last 11 points but that that three right there by Banton is huge for Portland huge oh try a little too unselfish on that a little too unselfish Zion hounded by Justin manah now he’s going to cross him over get the head of steam going off the glass not Zion’s on the deck Far Side he’s drawing a lot of contact but Portland’s five on four because he was on the Baseline on his run now manah gets free left wing back IR weak side rebound Trey Murphy he got back defensively to challenge that jumper they didn’t they didn’t attack 40 seconds left in the quarter offensive foul Z posting up I did not see it look that’s that’s a frustration because what Zion Williamson is saying is I’m posting up and I get that offensive foul call but I can’t get the call when I drive to the basket and I get put on my backside they’re trying to go two for one here Henderson travels and it backfired because he had to go around DeAndre eight and who got in his way the pels could H in theory do it but no I don’t think so just no take the best shot take the best shot don’t rush 33 and a half seconds left and now Jose will get it into the front Court there Zion Williamson shot clock at 10 somebody they playing that zone somebody’s got a flash PS up 8778 Murphy left wing up top Z with six swinging around Dyson Daniels right corner with four throw it out to Nance left angle three at the buzzer no and the rebound Banton banton’s got plenty of time cut off the ball he’ll go coast to coast and lay it no good with a left hand Trey Murphy’s got it half court good if it goes top of the backboard Jose Alvarado stops that fast break though because he forces that Miss from Banton Banton had a wide open look at first but Jose got there and almost took the offensive foul monster third quarter for New Orleans you were down three and half you’re up nine to start the fourth 8778 on the Pelicans radio network

call time out he had time to get the timeout no he Dove on to it and basically they’re on top of him before he get the timeout no you’re yeah just saw the replay he actually when he went to his back

he goes up and you hear the whistle free throws coming up well Bon switches off of him so Murray Murray can take him but they didn’t give Murray any help so if Z goes and there’s no help he’s going to go to the basket and probably draw a foul as long as DeAndre Aon is on the bench and Jabari Walker on the bench every play needs to go to number one absolutely absolutely free throw is good so Williamson now 16 points six rebounds three assists and you have a 10-point lead with 1115 to go Williamson Alvarado Jones Daniels and Nance on the Flor for the pel Z got them both yeah we got Z on the rare off night where know 17 points but he’s got the 29 from Trey Murphy and the 25 from CJ McCollum to pick up the flat yeah he a non officient game from the floor five of 14 yeah that we we

ridiculous Zion drives in misses the L up that’s a five-point swing right there now Dyson strips it taken by Jose who does the Hopscotch Ali Z wow reath denied it and Zan just nodding his head saying that’s a good basketball play well no he I think he’s telling ree hey man you you you did something that can hurt me I mean that might be something that might be worth taking a look at if you’re the officials because re grabs him before he can Elevate Willie Green will green hot he hot about that one is it going to be a foul on the side who who wait well he I mean he didn’t have the ball so it’s a foul on the side he did not have the ball in his hand you you know flip a coin just flip a coin you don’t know if it’s a shoo and foul or not in the league anymore you have no idea I mean that is the one where Z said hey man you you did something that might be a little dangerous now herb Jones splits Defenders drives into the dotted line kick it out to Dyson Daniels does not shoot the three he’s bumped no look over to Jose right corner three nope Jose Alvarado is now 0 of five from distance that three by Murray is going to stick in my crawl the rest of this game Henderson nearly

and 11 Trey goes left pop a three rebound Nance back it out to McCullum CJ right hand dribble drive off the glass no as it was blocked by eighton but a foul on the Blazers that’s on Chris Murray so

strong eight who’s got 30 tonight get it to B Hook pass out to handerson right corner ruper for three off the heel another rebound for valent Tunis the professional how do you say professional in Lithuania you don’t have to rush no there’s 235 to go and you’re up 18 yeah let them extend their defense take a foul get a great shot McCullum head fake Drive scooping righty leg up around and down for Christian James that’s all you got to do you get what you want that’s going to do it up 20 with 220 to go need CJ to get another oh you’re right I don’t think it’s going to happen need him to get another 29 for mullum but no the white flag has been raised as benches will empty here in the M of Center but that’s okay don’t don’t mess with the game don’t mess with the game no sir but here’s the here’s the thing John after sluggish first half and I was begging for somebody to flip a switch asking ye shall receive in half number two for New Orleans yeah it’s Ray Murphy flipped it really got it going with 17 in that third quarter and the pels with a 56- 33 second half so far so they’ve got the defense together after really not having it on on par as they’d like to have in the first half given up 55 points they figured it out offensively and defensively Portland down to 46% from the field and the bell’s only at 42% but 27 of 29 from the free throw line yeah and you score 33 points off 22 turnovers yeah you win game you you don’t have to shoot well if you’re G to get those numbers yeah the three-point shot just wasn’t there tonight same Trey Murphy and CJ McCullum who made 10 of the 11 know for five herb one for four but you mentioned the free throw numbers that is exquisite I mean you can’t ask for better than that no adabel 17 to two fast break points but we had a feeling coming in that’s just turn this team over and everything else will take care of itself and that’s what happen and a lot of them I mean it’s a young team and they commit a lot of unforced turnovers is that Matt Ryan they call for a foul there okay let’s uh reset things here because we got a lot of new bodies in there Cody Zeller is in Dyson Daniels Matt Ryan Jordan Hawkins and Jeremiah Robinson Earl so all starters are out 205 to go here in Portland Hells are going to sweep this season series Cody last plate March 22nd TW reath that’s not Steph Curry reath just buried another three from up top Dro It Like It’s Hot oh my that is and then Dyson turns it over un Force turn 150 to go when you’re just trying to get to the plane exactly head to Sacramento tonight maniah to the rack kick it to ruper left corner three a good net just take it down the shot clock 10894 PA top Matt Ryan chest it to Jeremiah Robinson Earl goes Baseline reverse layup Nifty with English for JRE here those are the shots JRE works on when he’s warming up pregame good to see it coming fruition during the game a re drives in and one Cody Zeller this will be if he converts this three consecutive three-point plays this one the oldfashioned way so dwap wath who averages nine a game has 10 scoot Henderson had a career night with 15 assists DeAndre Aiden basically doing what he does every time he plays the Pelicans 30 and 13 Freo no good rebound Cody Zeller that’s three double doubles in the last four games that DeAndre Aton has had against New Orleans but Trey Murphy and CJ McCullum combined for 60 points tonight yeah yeah but why are we shooting with 20 on the shot clot strip on the other end yeah D stripped it out just slow down fellas slow downan Hawkins bump throws it away this is not what Dr nouth had in mind trying to finish a ball game not Dr Leith not Willie Green not Dr SCH nobody you know if that wasn’t so funny I wouldn’t be I mean man there’s 44.3 seconds left Bon’s got two free throws cuz we filed them on the other end with Dyson Daniels the Blazers have a SE have tied a season high with 23 turnovers in this game but the just be efficient fellas just be efficient they’re gonna win this game but you don’t like to see it finish out this way all right 40 seconds to go just cross the timeline take a shot shot clock violation I’ll take that turnover but shoot it with two seconds left on the shot clock Dyson with the shot clock at seven get it to JRE left corner Hawkins goes Baseline hangs in the air no tipped up Zeller no but hey the shot clock’s off now exactly mil it down just right Hulk came by call now ruper don’t fou him floated up in around and out tipped up Reese got it garbage points oh they hit a 100 oh they get their McNuggets so the pels down the stretch just literally had pity on the Trailblazer fans and now they got 100 points and McNuggets cuz there’s no way they should be at 100 points dude the people who left get their McNuggets you got to make a $2 purchase to get the six nuggets hey there’s the horn and theels help themselves again as you have won the first two games on this critical season ending road trip by coming back and defeating the Portland Trailblazers 110 to 100 New Orleans now 47 and 32 again Sacramento losing Suns losing as we speak helping yourself but the key is you got it done in Portland tonight absolutely you take care of your business if you are the Pelicans that is what you’re supposed to do and you let the chips fall where they may after that but you take care of your own business which is exactly what the Pelicans were able to do in this game grabbing the head set across the way the professional the Lithuanian Jonas valent 11 points eight rebounds five assists 21 minutes JB huge win for you guys you took care of business and again for you to come out and establish yourself yet again we should not be surprised congratulations on the W thank you thank you you know uh we really need this these these couple wins we can we can take you know we got to do good job just you know taking the W’s y we know your your usage has fluctuated a bit but how pleasing I guess is to be on the court for this amount of minutes and I guess especially when it’s necessary when you need it because they have DeAndre Aton out there you guys really need to have somebody that that can deal with him you know our big picture is winning not uh playing scoring you know minutes uh shots big big picture is winning so as long as we winning you know I’m here I’m going to work well you get the win now you’re two and 0 on this road trip so far how much have you guys kind of looked at it and said look we’re in not necessarily desperation mode but we can help ourselves we’ve got our destiny in our hands if we just continue to win yes you’re right Destiny is in our hands so we got to do a good job rest of the three games uh just you know Focus be who we are you know we we proved that we can play good basketball so now we got to just come out and do it honest what were we all talking about in the locker room at halftime because the Blazer shot 55% in that first half and then you look at the final tally they W up shooting 47.8% you guys really tuned it up defensively in the second half did y’all talk about it in the lock you just said it you know we talked about it you know be more physical be more aggressive uh get into the ball you know guard the ball same on offense you know be be physical when you get get ball down low you know setting the screens we just we just go to we just had to be more physical more more tougher team now I know you know travel tonight have a day tomorrow now you get to go to Sacramento a team that you guys have played well I don’t necessarily know if looking forward to it is the word for it but how big are the stakes in that game we are looking forward and we again we need this W so we coming with this mindset and you know we’re gonna we’re going to do everything to to to get it Yas outstanding work as always we’ll see you on the play man thank you see you on that is Jonas valent Tunis again how do you not love that guy the guy played four minutes in Phoenix does he pout did he put his head down none of it folks his number was called tonight and he came through big time well you heard him he doesn’t care about the minutes he doesn’t care about the points he doesn’t care about the glory he cares about the wins guys like that are the glue to a successful team because when you get guys who aren’t thinking so much about self instead they’re thinking about the team you can get these kinds of results that the Pelicans are able to get because you know so there are people who would have pouted playing four minutes in Phoenix and they wouldn’t have been able to bounce back and you wouldn’t been able to reel them back in for the next game but jonis valun says look whatever it takes to win is what I’m here for John I’m gonna tease Pelicans OT here I’m just saying if things hold it’s what I just saw in the scoreboard and I’m not going to give you any scores folks because that’s Gus’s job but if the things hold that up what I just saw this is turning into a spectacular night if you’re a New Orleans Pelicans fan well it all begins though as we’ve said repeatedly it all begins with winning your game handling your business if you handle your business things will fall into place because you’re taking care of things it all goes back to winning you got to win for anything to mean anything because the help doesn’t arrive if you don’t win this game well you win the game you’ve got some help you could get a lot more help and that game on Thursday now in Sacramento if these results hold is going to be maybe the biggest regular season game this team has seen since 20178 I’m not even talking about the playin a couple years ago when we got into the ninth spot this has much more implications than that Sacramento it’s going to be a 7 o’clock tip 6:30 pregame on Thursday night but again if things hold oh my Heavens these games have taken on Monumental ramifications for the Pelicans but again you keep winning if you’re in New Orleans and the games get bigger and so you know these last few are going to be like playoff games we’ve said that already going back to the home stand you can’t tell me Sunday was not a playoff game you can’t tell me that was not a desperate Pelicans team that wanted to go out and get a win and that’s exactly what they did in pheni enjoyed it sir took a little while to get going but alls well it ends well and now we’ll make the short flight to Sacramento tomorrow off and then it’s that back to back Thursday in Sacramento Friday in San Francisco my oh my it’s been fun and it’s going to get even more fun hey we don’t have to hang it in the Lu to hang it in the wind column that’s the only thing that matters as JV said and that’s exactly what the PS were able to do all right that is John theer stick around more with him on Pelicans OT as we go deep into the night in New Orleans but everybody who stayed up late back
