We here at The Bird Writes are rooting for losses. Losses improve the New Orleans Pelicans hold on the sixth spot in the lottery and thus the probability they can move into the top three in the NBA Draft Lottery. However, there are good and bad way to go about accruing those valuable losses. Tonight was the worst possible way to #TankFlight.
Losing to the Philadelphia 76ers would be perfectly acceptable considering injuries. The Pelicans are still rolling out three players in their rotation who were in the D-League just weeks ago.
