Heading into Monday's game against the Celtics, the Pelicans are facing the fear of potentially falling to 0-3; to avoid that, they must do this.
I understand the New Orleans Pelicans are just two games into their season, so I hate to say tonight's game with the Boston Celtics feels like a must-win, but to me, it does. If the Pelicans lost tonight, they fall to 0-3, and in the Western Conference, that might be a start that is nearly impossible to come back from.
