Alvin Gentry moved Anthony Davis to the starting center position on Monday against the Dallas Mavericks. The New Orleans Pelicans scored 29 fast break points (!) en route to a big win against Chris Paul and the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. Tonight, the home team added another 30 fast break points (!!), this time against the Knicks.
In my quietest, high-pitched tone that my vocal cords will allow before cracking into oblivion, ‘Hey guys, the Pelicans may be onto to something here!’
When the oft-embattled head coach first arrived in the Crescent City, he promised to install a quick-hitting offense that focused on easy points and lots and lots of ball movement.
