Now, only one game stands in the way of the most splendid postseason dream. A win Wednesday and the Pelicans are in the 2015 playoffs!
Arriving in Minnesota, just two games remained on the calendar, yet these final days of the regular season held so much potential. The young Pelicans were probably fully aware of this fact; thus, it wasn't all that surprising to see them come out rather tight. We can't forget that playing in these type of meaningful type of games towards the end of a season is a first for this group collectively.
