Thanks for coming by, Pels fans!
Yes, the postseason will again exclude New Orleans, a disappointing finish to the first two-year, COVID-impacted Zion run for the franchise. But hey, as long as there’s a game, may as well watch it!
So, tune in Sunday for an 8pm showdown against last year’s champs, the LeBron and AD-fueled Lakers.
Would we be more excited about the future had the Pelicans finished in the play-in game both years? Certainly. But player development, particularly that of Big Z, will be what we look back on in the future.
