The New Orleans Pelicans played 12 games without Holiday and 1 game with him. It’s as good a time as any to look at what we’ve been looking at.
Davis is not only one of the best players in the NBA, he’s on a mission to prove it. His good performances have, of course, been spun into negatives by shallow analysis in various ways that I won’t rehash. He’s also played minutes he did not need to, likely in an effort to pump up his stats. The Pelicans have, in my opinion, committed to shining Davis up for mutual benefit.
