The Anthony Davis-era for the New Orleans Pelicans deserves more scrutiny if the Los Angeles Lakers win the NBA Finals

I was avoiding writing about Anthony Davis for the longest time, but I can’t anymore. Once the season began, I chose to hold off the Davis topic because I felt like it was time for the New Orleans Pelicans to move on.

With a great young core in place, I thought that the more compelling story to follow with the Pelicans was detailing the team’s growth throughout the year rather than look at how Anthony Davis performs in Los Angeles.
