Although there has been one playoff appearance during, it’s been a tough five years for the New Orleans Pelicans.
Even before they were called the “Pelicans”, New Orleans have not seen success in their division. Since the 2010-2011 season, where New Orleans finished ahead of the Houston Rockets, the Pels (Or at the time the “Hornets”) have been last in their division each of the past five regular seasons.
That’s not good. New Orleans Basketball has not seen much to cheer for in the past half-decade.
However, with a new cast of characters and a fresh start, is there optimism that can change?
