There is little question New Orleans’ success begins and ends with the play of AD. Obvious proclamations aside, no man is an island and beside Batman is — or at least should be — a very capable Robin.

...Even when he asked who was the copilot of this roster, Evans was unsure:

“I mean it’s tough. The other two guys [Holiday and Gordon] can go too. I don’t think we try to compete and see who is better. We just go out there and try to compete and if one guy is hot that night we just go with the hot hand.”

...“I’d say at the one is where I am at the best, with the ball in my hands,” he said. “If not there, then at the two and I wouldn’t really say the three—it’s a little out of position, but I can play it.”

...“I don’t know the issue with Jrue when he comes back, but I’ll be glad to have him back,” Evans said. “We work well with each other. While he’s out right now, I’m playing the point for the first time since my rookie year and I am trying to hold it down for us to get a lot of wins.”
