You’ve read a lot about the matchup between the young pup Golden State Warriors and the younger pup New Orleans Pelicans and you’re going to read a lot more. While you’re soaking up the analytics, the advanced metrics, the head-to-head history of these squads, consider taking a dip in what many (read: just me) believe to be the real key to this first round matchup – the tale of the tape behind the tape. I’m not talking about some base level city of Oakland versus city of New Orleans (no contest). I’m talking about Mascot Wars.
This is “Thunder”.
