The New Orleans Pelicans clearly needed some changes after missing the playoffs yet again.
They finished 11th in the ultra-competitive Western Conference, but should have been higher, as they blew a ton of double-digit leads and games that they should have won.
Part of the reason was the the team was terrible in clutch time and relied too much on Zion Williamson barreling through four defenders to get shots.
