Apparently, Chris Finch said not to read too much into lineup/rotations through pre-season... I certainly hope he's just tinkering with certain units to see what works and what doesn't.

LOL, Ant just shoves Ingram aside like a rag doll on that fast break dunk. He is a beast.

It looks like Pelicans are starting a bunch of backups other than Ingram. And while some of the games in League Pass are airing, it doesn't look like the Wolves game is one of them.

We're seeing some of the struggles controlling the defensive glass with a smaller team.

Defensive intensity is definitely up.

They're a little amped up. You can't redeem 10 years of shitty defense in one night. Let's hope we see them do this in game 20 and 30.

Coaches seem to like Okogie more then us. If he wasn't completely inept on offense.... maybe this is his breakout year??????

I don't necessarily hate Josh Okogie in the starting lineup depending on the opponent, but it goes without saying that we give up size and rebounding in order to do so. He's incredibly active, but outside of energy and perimeter defense, what does he provide?

I really like Okogie....as a backup 3.

Bev, Beas, Ant, Prince, Naz on the floor now.
