The Pelicans have been, if nothing else, a consistently inconsistent basketball team for most of the Anthony Davis era.
Go on basketball-reference.com and look at how their wins and losses are divvied up: a string of losses to the NBA’s elite here, followed by a couple of wins at home over mediocre at best teams there, followed again by a couple of losses on the road. I’ve seen this show before. This is who this team is.
So now after taking a couple on the chin, New Orleans five-game in ten-cities East Coast trip takes a stop in New York City tonight to play a fading Knicks team.
