The New Orleans Pelicans are one of the most inconsistent teams in the NBA this season.
After defeating the Nuggets last night, they are now just 4.5 games back of the 8th seed in the Western Conference but have not shown that they can put together the type of win streak to get there.
It is more likely that they will end up in the lottery than the playoffs, which is disappointing but not unexpected considering their age as a team and the fact that they are trying to adjust to a new coach.
