The Pelicans came into Friday’s contest with the deck quite stacked against them. Still recovering from the effects of the DeMarcus Cousins injury, a win with a full roster is tough. The Pelicans obviously didn’t care, undermanned in all, pulled out one of their more impressive wins of the season. It is clear at this point that they will not go away anytime soon.
What we liked: The fight in the first half
When you come into a game with 10 players, and two you’d rather not play, times are rough. Throw in you’re playing in a place you haven’t won in four games, and the road to victory should be a steep one.
