quote:No they weren't. They were very good on offense based on the numbers, but they were not first and certainly not by a wide margin.
And they were the most potent offense in the league by a wide margin in that short stretch.
They were 4th points per game, and 3rd in offensive rating. And it was 21 games. So it was about a quarter of the season.
Their record was 11-10 over that span.
They averaged 106.0 ppg. The highest-scoring team, the Blazers, averaged 110.3 ppg. So the Blazers were actually the ones leading by a wide margin.
If you look at points per 100 plays, the Pelicans drop to #10. That means they were getting many second-chance opportunities.
They were certainly one of the best offensive teams during that span based on the stats. But they were not "the most potent offense in the league by a wide margin".

I'm positive this team definitely didn't have 21 healthy games, together.
eta: Holiday, Gordon, Evans, Anderson, Davis played 12 games together.

Their O-Rating was around 125 or something absurd.
Needless to say they were very effective.
On jrue+reke:
"Some people"(they know who they are) have questioned the effectiveness of jrue bring the ball up with reke is around.
It really doesn't matter who brings the ball up as long as both operate together effectively(which theres no evidence to suggest they wouldn't be)
Hell tyreke has played with a ballhog in roberts and has done just fine. There's no reason jrue and reke can't work together well as their styles can fit well.

Sorry, I should have been more specific. The Finishing Five 5 man unit has an offensive rating of 125. Here are the top 5 man units for the top 5 offenses. Requirements were at least 90 minutes together and had to be mostly the core starters.
Clippers
Paul-Collison-Barnes-Griffin-Jordan 125
Pelicans
Holiday-Gordon-Evans-Anderson-Davis 125
Blazers
Lillard-Matthews-Batum-Aldridge-Lopez 114
Timberwolves
Rubio-Martin-Brewer-Love-Pekovic 116
Rockets
Beverley-Harden-Parsons-Jones-Howard 113
Thunder
Westbrook-Sefolosha-Durant-Ibaka-Adams 108
