The New Orleans Pelicans achieved perhaps their biggest objective of 2014-15 by reaching the Western Conference playoffs, despite a myriad of injuries and the brutal competition offered by the Southwest Division. But that’s merely a starting point. Based on a roster with nearly every key player in their early-to-mid-20s, there are countless team goals the Pelicans would like to meet in the future.
For now though, an 11-game improvement from 2013-14 and the progress of several individuals – most notably, rising star Anthony Davis – give players reason to be somewhat content with what they’ve accomplished.
