Which team in the West worries you the most for the Pelicans playoff chances?
The Pelicans got the easiest remaining schedule, and they’ve proven to be their own worse enemy. They control their own destiny at this point. If they come out and play the way we know they can, they will not only get into the play in tournament but possibly avoid it all together and get a six seed, the west is seriously that close and it all depends on if they can get healthy at the right time.
The Pelicans … they are their own biggest threat for their playoff chances.
Between injuries, non-consistent energy and effort, the horrible game planning/in-game adjustments, and complete lack of great reliable and efficent 3pt shooting and way to defend the pick and role, our team defeats it's self.

The only team they need to watch is the lakers who they play tomorrow
Doesn't matter if the Pels keep losing game after game.
at this point pels should just worry about themself not others….just play damn hard every fucking game~you can lose game but never beat yourself by poor effort
Thanks Jake
Best if Lakers lose thus giving the Pels their potentially higher lottery pick to steal Wemby. Otherwise, just need Pels to get into play in or playoffs by time Zion is back and let him lead the team to the title. There's no dominant teams, so it's realistic to say the Pels can win the title if Zion is back.
BI has quite a few games he can sit out coming up but I can't get with him not giving it a go with this laker game
