The New Orleans Pelicans and their loyal fanbase believe that a late playoff push is possible.
I however don’t think that it is.
Trust me, I think this team is on the come up and that in the next two to three years they could be a dominant force in the west. But I don’t think that right now is a chance for them to get in the playoffs. They are missing some key pieces to be successful. Although they are very young, which can be good, they are missing some key things on offense. One key player I think they need to get rid of is Josh Hart. In all honesty I think that Josh is a clown. I really don’t think that he is a good player and most of his time spent on the court is turning the ball over and missing shots. They need to space the floor, run out in transition and lock up on perimeter defense. Josh hart doesn’t fit anywhere in there. If you ask me, they should start there if they are looking for improvement.
But, although they might not make the playoffs this year, that gives Zion time in the offseason to lose some weight. It gives there perimeter players time to work on their game and try and learn how to play with each other better. But I don’t see a playoff appearance happening this season.
