From visions of reaching 50 wins to the absolute bottom of the barrel. The New Orleans Pelicans were on top of the world just two months ago and it has all come crashing down around Anthony Davis and Alvin Gentry. Sure, Davis is still putting up an amazing stat line. If a sacrifice in points or rebounds could turn a few of those losses into wins Davis wouldn't think twice.
The Pelicans were actually better this week than last, tallying their first win and leading at halftime in four consecutive games. The second half, sadly, is a thing that exists and New Orleans has been unable to sustain their success in the first 24 minutes.
