1st. Go pels! Trade Jax now for more value.
Are you starting to believe in Jaxson Hayes?
deepest team in the league
What a win!
Pelicans fan from the Philippines! 🇵🇭
Hi jake what a win happy holidays. Jaxson playing himself into to rotation. Hope you feel better soon
Went to my first game in years. Would have been a rough game in past years with all the players out but ended up being a blowout!! #newera
I never disbelieved in him to begin with….It's a matter of playing his hardest he can ..bringing energy Rebounds, Stick Backs ..Blocking shots changing shots in the paint…He's really good in certain match ups He's good in a game where we push the ball space the floor like tonight ..I was saying why can't we play like this more often for longer stretches like tonight….Were great when don't stand around and move without the ball …I'd like to see Zion play more with out the ball we stand and watch way to much ..I'm concerned with Zion's lack of a Jump shot might not matter now in the playoffs it will come into play as the game slows down and positions mean more …Every pro player at this level should have a jump shot it would save him a lot of wear and tear on his body nightly …Smart players change there game to change the game at times .. Example the bulls in the 91 finals took Jordan off magic and put Pippen guarding him this changed the entire series and they never lost another game after losing game 1…
Trade Jaxson now!! He is FOOLS GOLD
My team everyday
Some knuckle head blamed coach Green for our troubles nonsense this man has been the best coach for the City and our players I've ever seen…This man aint leading us the wrong way period great dude
Appreciate you for posting this even though you're not feeling well. It seems to me that Jax plays better when Zion is out. Have you noticed that?
I always thought Jax only plays good with BI. but he showed tonight.
Problem with Jaxson is that every time he came back from off season, he seems to forget everything he learnt from previous season. He had to start all over again and only getting better halfway into the season. When he actually became good, the season coming to an end and he go off to summer, then next season came back like a rookie again.
Jake when the video starts: 🙂
Three straight wins without your two best players. That says all you need to know. This team is kimchi deep in players. Don't change a thing.
Great rotation today coach great too see Jaxson start. No rebounding problems tonight.
Happy to see Kira back. People forget how good he was his rookie year. It will be a matter of time until he cracks the rotation
The “we winning so trading is dumb” crowd is the worst. This team is an anomaly, most NBA teams don’t have former top ten picks dropping 21 points all the way from second to last spot on the bench. There won’t be minutes for all of them and there won’t be money to keep this team together. Consolidating 3 to 4 guys for the right player not only pushes the core closer to a championship, it helps future cap issues.
Great win. IMO, our offense works best when we move the defense by attacking the basket. CJ driving the ball has got his game back in form. Constantly attacking the basket with the guards & forwards. Kira looked good.
Chips on the way 😋
This was one of those games that you use to talk up your tradable assets.
Jake, first off I hope you feel better. I had Covid about 3 weeks ago and it was not fun.
Games like this are ones where idk what they mean moving forward, but they’re really enjoyable as a fan. Loved seeing Kira back in action, and that midrange shot he made was a nice surprise.
Jax is a nightly highlight reel. I really like him. I just don't know where he can get mins when the team is healthy. It also sucks that it takes him so long in the season to get warmed up.
Great effort by that John Wick bad guy.. JV and also Sideshow Bob…Mr Hayes…🤣🤣🏀🇬🇧
Jale, at least you'll feel better for the new year brother… appreciate the effort! 👏🏀🇬🇧
Great win and get better Jake!
when Zion come back Willie might try to play him at 3 sometime with Jaxson 4 & Larry 5~ may be a interesting lineup to try
Jaxon spend Christmas with vj is wholesome asf
I told jake ,jaxson would make a difference, he won the game for us against thunder, 9 rebounds tonight… really want to see him matchup against the Celtics and bucks and Utah.
What do u think we're gonna do Kira Lewis jr??
How you love that jake , jaxson comin thru !! 💪🏾💪🏾
