As the Pelicans continue to fight for playoff positioning in the West, the upcoming three-game road trip has fortuitous timing: starting with Tuesday's win in Toronto against a Raptors squad without Scottie Barnes, followed by games at Philadelphia without Joel Embiid and at Atlanta without Trae Young. New Orleans sits three games behind the LA Clippers for the fourth spot in the West, but just four ahead of Golden State at No. 10. -- Lopez

Reasonable. We have the 8th best record.

I say we catch LAC in the standings next week and overtake 4th place against them H2H next Friday night in the SKC




ETA ESPN matchup predictor has Pels winning 17 of their remaining 20 games rn. Our stock is up.

I also actually believe we will end up the 4th seed. Looking at the teams currently in the order of 4-8, the Pels have a favorable schedule to get to 50+ wins. Clippers have a number of tough games left and losing Westbrook, will hurt to some degree. I was worried about Dallas but their reeling a bit now. The Suns are our only competition now for the 5th seed.

Nonetheless, I feel the Pels are due for their longest winning streak of the year. It just so happens it may come at the right time.

That would be a record of 54-28

That likely makes us what seed? 2-3?

57 would mark the best regular season win total in franchise history beating the 07 team by one win.

Going 28-7 from February to April would be an insane finish. That’s a 66-win pace.

Without making a huge trade at the deadline either.
