Really, we shouldn’t have expected more. Only 7 players were available for the Pelicans, and they got smoked. The team hasn’t been super interesting except in a “maybe this fringe player could stick” way for about a month, and tonight’s game was no exception.
NOW the real interesting things start – is the front office safe? Coaching Staff? Medical Staff? What is our dream player in the draft? Would it be better to move the pick? Will the Pelicans get anyone useful in free agency? Will they be able to move any dead weight? Will any of these d-league all-stars stick and prove useful to the team?
