My first-ever blog post as the site manager for Pelican Debrief involved me sharing a depressing statistic about the New Orleans Pelicans.
If you need a refresher, the post was basically about how the Pelicans were in the top-5 at the time (and ultimately for the season) in number of games lost by their players due to injury. That’s certainly not the kind of statistic you want to be placing top-5 in.
But yet, somehow, I’ve returned with something even more saddening than that, mostly because it involves the history of the franchise rather than one lone season.
