On Friday the New Orleans Pelicans held a far different media day than we’ve been accustomed to since Anthony Davis arrived. Luster has clearly been lost as the national media has moved on from “The Brow” to a new young darling big man from Kentucky; Karl-Anthony Towns. Dell Demps did not discuss playoffs and players did not predict a massively improved defense like last fall. Instead, the focus was on the process.
If you’ve followed the NBA for the past four years that concept has many negative connotations.
“Trust the Process” was the fan cry of the Philadelphia Sixers behind then GM Sam Hinkie.
