The New Orleans Pelicans have had an up and down season with plenty to be excited about but also some big concerns.
The play of Zion Williamson should be enough to get fans excited, as he looks like a 20-year-old generational superstar who keeps getting better every game, though you’d never know it from Pelicans’ Twitter, which has rapidly devolved into a black hole of complaining and misery.
Fans are right to be upset that the Pels aren’t playing well, but there will be 13 other lottery teams in this year’s draft who wish they had half the talent the Pels already have, so let’s accept that the Pelicans are rebuilding and that our expectations for them this season were too high.
