2015 was a year of peaks and valleys for the New Orleans Pelicans. The 2014-2015 season showed all the promise and excitement New Orleans basketball fans could possibly desire including the first playoff games since the team became the Pelicans. Expectations were high going into the new season, and unfortunately they did not pan out the way fans had hoped.
The New Orleans Pelicans are now 10-21 as 2015 nears its end. And while they are only four games out of a playoff spot in the muggy Western Conference, the team has not performed the way everyone saw in late March through April.
