Despite the presence of big men Asik and Davis, the Pelicans have allowed far more shot attempts at the rim than any other team in the NBA.

That's not all that surprising though. Asik was top 10 in rim protection to start the year before Gordon got injured. Gordon and Holiday were doing a good job of keeping guards out of the lane. When Gordon went down we saw a lot of teams have success with whoever Holiday wasn't guarding. Now that Holiday has gone down, even Gordon coming back hasn't helped much. Asik went from top 10 to start the year to 28th when you filter the low minutes/low attempts guys. LINK
This board went from hating Okafor to thinking he was an All Star snub when the team added Ariza to the mix and the perimeter defense improved. Cole/Pondexter/Cunningham should help, but our problems in the paint start out on the perimeter.
