These are so much more fun to write and read when the Pelicans win, aren’t they?
After days of pessimism, blown leads, and roster insults, the New Orleans Pelicans won a game, beating the Los Angeles Clippers 94-81. But it’s not just the fact that they won that matters, it’s the details behind them.
No Devonte’ Graham, no Zion, of course, against a Clipper squad which has been relatively good, especially over the past couple of weeks. But we’re not done. A terrible first quarter, no 20-point Brandon Ingram performance overall ... and they won?
