December Zion + our relative health = huge problems for the rest of the NBA
just being realistic I don’t think any contending team in the west actually fears the pelicans in a series, except possibly the kings. Certainly not the suns, mavs, wolves, thunder, clippers or nuggets

I’m not sure where all this “problem for the league” bravado is coming from. They would be underdogs in any series against any of those teams and rightly so

I think we'd beat the mavs and thunder

Pels are 10 games over at ASB with 28 left and basically will swap TM3 for Dyson from the beginning of the year. Pels need to show improvement and health across the board to get a home series.

0-1, 2-2, 2-2, 1-1, 2-1, and 1-2 against these teams.

We’ve been competitive against all these teams. I like our chances in 7 games against any of them.

Not to mention we’re 1pt away from being 3-1 against the Wolves.

Well, based on the hypothetical you quoted, we don't have even close to December Zion, so yes you are correct.
