Greetings from Barclays. It’s cold out. Nets-Pelicans tip shortly. This should be a barn burner. Lately these games haven’t gone that way. Chick-Fil-A was the pregame meal. Kessler Edwards and Day’Ron Sharpe starting again. Updates to follow. – 7:22 PM

Willie Green said earlier that Herb Jones will be guarding Kevin Durant to start tonight’s game.
In the Nets’ 1st game vs NOLA this year, Herb was the primary defender on 2 of KD’s 17 shots. Gonna be interesting to see how the rookie handles this matchup. – 7:11 PM

Pelicans mailbag: Will Brandon Ingram be an All-Star? Should the Pelicans be buyers at the trade deadline — and who should they eye, if so?

Random thought…
The Nets have gotten a lot out of their Two-Way players (David Duke Jr & Kessler Edwards). So much that both have been somewhat regular starters.
But they aren’t eligible for the postseason. Roster conversion or does BKN have to go to other players eventually? – 7:02 PM

“It’s been obviously an incredible coup for us to have James [Harden] in our program. There’s a lot of bad luck so to speak…the amount of games that we were able to play whole was …a dozen or less, even if you include those games that James played on one leg.”

Brooklyn’s Steve Nash on facing #Pelicans this time with Brandon Ingram playing (Ingram returned from a Nov. injury the night after team’s game vs. Nets): “They’re obviously a different proposition with Brandon. A terrific scorer, and kind of the head of the snake over there.” – 5:51 PM

After a strong win over the Nets on Thursday where OKC recorded season highs in multiple offensive categories, the Thunder will look to continue its stretch of strong offensive execution against the Cavs.
