The Pelicans are in the middle of their best stretch this season. Despite being 14-27, they have won thee of their last four games and their overall chemistry seems to be improving.
Their last three wins have been against the Wolves, Hornets, and Kings and their last loss was an away game against the Grizzlies. Currently, they are the fourth worst team in the Western Conference sitting between the Suns and Nuggets.
Even with their terrible record, they are still just four wins away from the eight seed. If the Pelicans are still dead-set on making the playoffs, another couple runs like the one they enjoyed this past week will be necessary.
