                                      NEW ORLEANS -- Anthony Davis is off to the best start of his young career, but the New Orleans Pelicans superstar acknowledged mounting frustrations after a loss to the Milwaukee Bucks dropped his team to 0-4 overall and 0-3 at home this season. Jordan 8 Wholesale .Definitely frustrating, Davis said after Tuesdays 117-113 defeat. We cant get a win. Its frustrating.Davis finished with 35 points and 15 rebounds in the loss, pushing his season averages to 37 points and 13 rebounds per game, both career highs.The 23-year-olds 148 total points are the most in NBA history through the first four games of the season by a player whose team lost all of those games, according to ESPN Stats and Information research.Im frustrated, but Ive got to find a solution, Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said. I cant be frustrated to the point of where I throw up my hands and not anythings going on. Its my job. Thats why they hired me here. Ive got to find a solution to our problems. Ive got to find a solution to why were turning the ball over. Ive got to find a solution as to why we cant go into the game with a defensive plan and stick to it. Its very frustrating, yeah. But there have got to be solutions.Despite high expectations heading into last season, an injury-riddled Pelicans team lost its first six games and 11 of its first 12 before ultimately finishing a disappointing 12th in the Western Conference at 30-52. Davis missed a career-high 21 games, including the final 14 of the campaign to undergo an ultrasonic debridement of his left knee.Im not worried about last year, Davis said. Im focused on this year, trying to get a win. But its frustrating. Whatever we need to do, we need to do it fast.Despite Davis strong play, the Pelicans entered Tuesdays game ranked second to last in the NBA in offensive efficiency and last in 3-point shooting. New Orleans shot a season-high 34.6 percent from the 3 line against the Bucks, but its 14th-ranked defense allowed 58 points in the paint and a backbreaking 3-pointer to Giannis Antetokounmpo to extend its deficit to five points with 1:34 left to play.We played hard, but we got to start playing a lot smarter, Gentry said. We just have too many defensive breakdowns. Were not talking, so were not switching where were supposed to [and were] leaving open 3-point shooters. Were not talking on back screens, so we end up giving up a layup. These are all things that are very correctable and things that we go over every day that we just got to get better at. Theres no excuse for not talking defensively.The Pelicans, who are without starters Jrue Holiday (personal), Tyreke Evans (right knee) and Quincy Pondexter (left knee) to start the season, are one of five NBA teams still without a win and one of two teams with four losses.As far as our team goes, our margin of error is slim, said Pelicans point guard Tim Frazier. We got one guy that can go out there and get a bucket, get 50 points. But other than that, us other guys just need to step up. Cheap Jordan 8 Wholesale . Barcelonas entertaining victory ensured the defending Spanish champions retained their share of the league lead with Atletico Madrid two rounds ahead of their meeting in the capital. Real Madrid needed a late goal by substitute Jese Rodriguez to earn a 3-2 victory at Valencia to stay in third place and three points behind its title rivals. Cheap Jordan 8 Shoes .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch. http://www.cheapairjordan8.com/ . Datsyuk will miss Tuesdays game against New Jersey and could be sidelined longer, while Cleary will likely miss at least the next three games. Its been an injury-plagued season for Datsyuk, who has suited up for just 39 games. Essex have confirmed that they will not be holding a Colchester Festival in 2017. The club put the decision down to the vagaries of the fixture list, rather than finances, and say they will consider a return to Castle Park - which has hosted Essex for over a century - in subsequent seasons.Rumours had swirled earlier this year that the fixture against Sussex in August would be the last Colchester Festival - fittingly marked, if so, by a century from the retiring allrounder and local favourite Graham Napier.With the announcement of the 2017 fixture list, Essex are set to play all of their home fixtures at their Chelmsford headquarters. Essexs chairman, John Faragher, said the reasoning came down to the fact Essex only have one home Championship fixture between the end of June and their final game of the season, against Yorkshire on September 25-28.Most of the reshaped fixture list is given over to the NatWest T20 Blast during July and August, a popular time of the year for counties to hold festivals. Essex host Somerset in the Championship oon August 28-31, although they also entertain West Indies for a tour match at the start of the month. Wholesale Jordan 8. County outgrounds have been vanishing from the fixture list for some time and the reduction in the number of Championship games from 16 to 14 next year is unlikely to help. Essex called time on their trips to Southend in 2011 and last played at Ilford in 2002.This was a very difficult decision to make, the Colchester Festival week has always been an integral part of the season, with players and members always enjoying the experience of visiting Castle Park, Faragher said.However, the clubs committee decided that it was simply not acceptable to agree a fixture plan that would result in no Championship cricket at Chelmsford, for nearly three months in the middle of the summer. Going forward, we will review this decision and depending on the fixtures, hope to see Colchester back in the schedule for 2018. ' ' '
