14 New Orleans

Think I speak for everyone when I say we all can't wait to see what the Pels look like with Ryan Anderson and The Unibrow in the lineup side-by-side for a sustained period. New Orleans is a rather passable 8-5 when Anderson plays ... albeit a worrisome 0-8 against teams .500 or better.

Not a bad ranking for the Pelicans. About right.

11-3 against teams worse than .500

Again… Rome wasn't built in a day. People who expected this team to finish as a 3-6th seed in the West were crazy. Considering the circumstances they're doing fine.

Especially with the injuries. Off the top of my head I can't even recall Ryno, AD, and Reke playing together. I'm pretty sure they have, but I'd bet it's been less than an hour or two.

I'd bet my life that we beat the Pacers with Ryno, and that's including an unhealthy Evans.

Sunshine pumping: At least the losses to phoenix were losses to a pretty decent team

I would have said that before Jrue started playing like a legit top 10 PG. One of those + a top 5-10 player in AD + two studs off the bench, all we need is for Smiht/Aminu not to suck and for EG to be a moderately above average player, and I think we can make the playoffs if we stay fairly healthy. You can't neglect that we've had a ton of injury issues, particularly from two guys that don't have a history of injury problems (Reke and Ryno, AD is a bit too young to know whether he's injury prone).

Once the team gets back to full health, there will be train to wreck. 6-6 in games decided by 7 or less. And we've beaten a lot of fringe teams, which bodes well. Those PHX losses sting, but I doubt PHX can hold on for a whole season given their overall dearth of talent
