It’s become a ritual to scoreboard watch for more than half of the Western Conference on non-game days over the past few weeks. As many are probably aware in New Orleans, yesterday was not a good day for the Pelicans.
The Suns, Clippers, Timberwolves, Lakers, Thunder, Mavericks and Jazz were all in action and only Dallas and Minnesota picked up L’s. So before the start of tonight’s slate of matchups, the Pelicans are ninth in the standings, needing to figure out a way to win as many of their remaining six regular season games as possible.
