The New Orleans Pelicans were eviscerated 139-111 by the Brooklyn Nets on the second night of a back-to-back.
The Pels have started April in the worst way as the regular season quickly heads towards its finish. New Orleans has lost four of its five last games and, injuries aside, this was a dispiriting and disappointing performance. Even though the Pels were up against one of the best teams in the NBA—and arguably the squad with the most depth—some semblance of effort would have been nice.
Instead, the contest was over by halftime.
