Life comes at you fast…
The pendulum for the New Orleans Pelicans has swung back in the wrong direction.
After their blazing 4-0 start following the All-Star break, the Pels have suffered some painful setbacks, starting with an overtime loss to the Denver Nuggets and followed by last night’s rout at the hands (paws) of the Memphis Grizzlies.
Even the absence of Brandon Ingram doesn’t explain the beatdown New Orleans took in Bluff City.
The Grizzlies are what the Pelicans aspire to be. They are young, talented, deep, and they play with passion.
