So as it turns out, heading into Oracle Arena on the night the Golden State Warriors received their NBA Championship rings was as an impossible of a task as it seemed for the New Orleans Pelicans. It started with an inability to slow down Stephen Curry, who abused Nate Robinson and Ish Smith to the tune of 40 points including a 24 point first quarter but that was hardly the only problem.
Anthony Davis struggled mighty, as he started an abysmal 1-15 from the floor and even struggled at the foul line where he made just 10 of his 15 attempts, a down night for an MVP candidate.
