Friendly neighborhood Pelicans columnist.

How is it possible Zion recorded zero defensive rebounds in 32 minutes?

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@54BigPete Harder to win with 1 rushing yard midway through 4Q.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@jkemp1775 @leinad_adecuas Love all of this.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

Pretty hard to overstate how absolutely dreadful Tulane played tonight. About as thorough of an ass kicking as I've ever seen them take in Yulman Stadium.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

Some of these political commercials during football are absolutely bananas.

I want to opt out of all of it.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@charlescwcooke @CJRealHoops2 At least he did the deep inhale.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@MattMoscona Like watching Picasso paint!

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

Tulane volleyball keeps rolling. It was another fun night at Fogelman Arena.

@GreenWaveVB deserves support! They're putting a great product on the floor.

#Tulane rolls thru the 5th set 15-6, beats Tulsa. Wave is 8-1 in the American and tied for 1st with ECU, which comes to Devlin Fieldhouse on Sunday. Tulane, clutch all year, improves to 4-1 in 5th sets during league play.

There are so many sports on my TV. The most wonderful time of the year.

Just looked at the Louisiana Ballot Initatives and there are TWO measures offering property tax relief for seniors on the ballot.

Who is behind this? How much more generational theft do the Boomers plan on doing? Mandatory year of indentured servitude for college grads next?

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

I loved this team so much.

[New Orleans Saints History @SaintsHistory]

OTD in #Saints history (10/22/2000), Ricky Williams had his way with the Falcons. Williams ran 29 times for 156 yards & had 4 catches for 37 yards! The Saints beat those sorry #DirtyBirds 21-19! Here's the NFL PrimeTime highlights from the win! #WhoDat

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@TBob53 I love this for you.

Welcome to hell.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@NolaSignGuy I mean, there were obviously not 17K people there, but the crowd was energetic and the lower level was mostly full. If the arena is like that for all 41 home games, the Pelicans are in great shape.

I'm responding to a viral picture of the building being empty 30 mins before tip.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

Absolutely nothing on this app generates BS engagement like a picture of an empty stadium 20 minutes before a game starts.

The Pelicans have a billion problems. Empty seats in the upper bowl is low on the list. The crowd at the arena last night was perfectly fine.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@The_31 Of course.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

For anyone at SKC tonight, please post whatever 25th anniversary stuff they do.

To my memory, I've never seen them acknowledge really any of the team's history but I'm hoping this milestone gives them an opportunity to reflect some on a generation of NBA in this city.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

Those 3s from Fears and Zion at the end were a perfect homage to 25 years of basketball in the Smoothie King Center.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

A very entertaining season opener in the SKC tonight.

I was not excited about the season starting, but this has been really fun to watch.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

@DMGrubb This was very well done. Thanks for sharing.

[Southern Miss MBB @SouthernMissMBB]

Final from RGC.

[Scott Kushner @ScottDKushner]

First game in purple and gold was a pretty damn good one for @PrivateersHoops.

Stacy Hollowell and his new-look roster leave Hattiesburg with 10-point win in their only preseason tilt.

Something to prove.
