Grading New Orleans 2016-17 NBA season

Related Topics: New Orleans Pelicans

The New Orleans Pelicans missed the playoffs and a .500 W/L record by a wide margin similar to the 2015-16 campaign. Yet, unlike Alvin Gentry’s first go around, there were substantial differences between the two seasons. The first was overcome by a laughable amount of injuries, but the latest was saddled with offensive ineptness until a trade for DeMarcus Cousins seemingly swung the door open to NBA relevancy.

With such a mixed bag, how would you rate this season as a whole on a scale of 1 (dumpster fire) - 10 (raging success)?

Jason: 7

I would rate this season a solid 7.
