Fair to wonder whether Pelicans have realistic shot of reaching playoffs after 128-106 loss to Knicks

The New York Knicks hit a jumper on each of their first four possessions, which included a couple of 3-pointers. During these first few minutes of tonight’s matchup, the New Orleans Pelicans missed all three of their looks from deep.

That trend, disturbingly, changed very little — despite the fact that the Knicks were the team playing on the second night of a back-to-back set.

At the 8:47 mark of the third quarter, RJ Barrett knocked down one of the many wide open 3s that the Knicks received on the night. Seconds later, a CJ McCollum corner 3-point attempt first grazed the side of the backboard before clanging short off the rim.
