Willie Green recaps loss | Pelicans-Magic Postgame Interview 3/21/2024
Give them credit they were more mentally tougher than we were and they were more disciplined tonight and so you know the beauty in the NBA is you get to do it again tomorrow against another tough opponent so um we got to correct some of some of the issues that we is is self-inflicted
The turnovers not boxing out as far as uh defending the three-point line and shooting thre what would you like to see differently tomorrow we we have to create three-point opportunities for for each other and um this is one of their strengths defensively they try to take
Away threes we know it every time the ball goes from side to side we got good we got quality looks uh but 23s is not enough you mentioned another chance tomorrow it’s a big one considering what happened last time versus the Miami Heat is your locker room remembering that
Game at home at all and the ejections the Ruckus I’m sure both teams will be excited to play the game uh for sure you know no no one’s forgot would happen uh but for us it’s about winning the game in between the lines it’s not all of all
Of the other stuff is it’s being physical in the right way executing in the right way being disciplined in the right way and you know and trying to do what we can to win the game and can you give us any more information on VI no I we don’t have any
Information right now he’s he’s getting other than he’s getting MRI and getting some Imaging done yeah he just like using quite a b p that to see it’s extremely difficult to see him go down um our prayers will will will be going up tonight and you know
Hopefully we get some good news back what did you feel like they did to limito uh extremely handsy team they got deflections they got steals you know when you have 19 turnovers as a group and they score 25 points it’s tough to win on anyone’s home floor and then you
Add the 22 chance points so those two factors right there that’s you know death in the NBA I think they took three charges out the just you what you see there them them off times they did a good job of getting into the paint meeting them at the basket um I thought
Once again he he could have got some calls that didn’t go his way but you know we’ll give credit to them they were the better team tonight and we have to regroup and get back after it all right thank you

Nah cooked by the magic is crazy
It's the same problem that the New Orleans pelicans have when going up against quality teams CJ McCollum cannot compete against younger point guards his better days are behind him any desperately need a young More athletic big man with some quickness but give Larry Nance credit he does the best he can how old is Trey Murphy there is not a legitimate shooter on the team other than Jordan Hawkins and for the life of me I don't know why they don't play him more with Brandon Ingram down and Dyson Daniels still on the shelf I doubt if the pelicans will make it to the playoffs hopefully I'm wrong
Hope BI’s knee injury not a big deal
Willie Green Credit Union
Every team from this point will be physical against us. Praying for BI hope it’s not serious as it looked.
Pelicans always struggle against the Magic
Play your shooters you stubborn silly man
Cj is done when he plays young guards he gets cooked he has to come the bench. Also these refs have vendetta against Zion these dudes hack him and flop all the time. Willie play hawk and we need a quick long 5 man
To much press on the Pelicans but hopefully B.I. gets better soon I feel we got Jinx by all the healthy talks.
“Give them credit” off the jump is CRAZY
