It is early in the NBA season and the Pelicans have shown flashes of what could be an extremely difficult to defend, well oiled, offense. They have also shown an offense that consistently shoots itself in the foot. At times, the Pelicans have made shots running a single P&R with barely any movement after that action. They have been forced to make something out of nothing and resort to throwing up a tough shot that goes in (hell, they even won against the Kings playing like this most of the game). Other times they look great – moving the ball, screening for each other on and off ball, and getting their best players in their most effective spots to read the double then shoot, drive, or pass only for the shot to miss.
