if the Lakers made it with all the **** they went through there is no excuses for the Pelicans to not have made it.
Had 2 more chances this week and blew em against Wolves and OKC. That roster is underachieving
Well first off, LeBron (55) and AD (56) both played more games than either BI or Zion and played exactly 3X as many games together (36 vs. 12).
Furthermore, you are looking at two weeks and honing in on two games while I am looking at the season as a whole which was a major disaster so I think we are fundamentally viewing the situation in different ways. In my opinion, it is really incomparable to any other situation I can think of around the league. They pretty much landed where they should have based on the health of their two all-stars.
Kings wouldn’t be 3rd if Fox played 45 games and Sabonis played 29. Same with LeBron and AD, respectively, as it applies to the 7th seed. I could go on with teams and their two all-stars.
For some reason a weird standard is being applied here to a team led by CJ McCollum, Herb Jones, Trey Murphy III, Jonas Valancniuas, a ~1/2 time BI and a ~1/3 time Zion.
