How bad are the Pelicans this season?
The red numbers are every area the Pelicans are WORSE than they were last year.
Only Zion and Yves, who’ve both played only 2 games, have a positive +/- and net rating.
This team is slower than last season’s team. Everything is bad.

The Pelicans’ problems are not individual, they are systemic.
After 2 games, they avg just 29.5 3PA. They’re 21st in 3P%, 25th in asts, 28th in DREB%, and 19th in ORTG.
The Pelicans right now are nothing more than a glossier version of the team they were a year ago.

New Orleans has started 0-3 5x, winning 36 games or less in each season.
The average losing streak to start those years: 5.8 games.

Willie Green is 3-1 to start the season in his career w/ 3 straight victories, including a road win over the Grizzlies to start the ‘23-24 season.
The big question is about the Pelicans’ first 10 games, where he’s 13-27 (.325) over his career vs 148-180 (.451) overall.

The Pelicans get a limited Grizzlies front court tonight, but the real problem for the Pelicans has been Ja Morant.

The Pels are 2-8 over their last 10 vs Memphis, but 0-6 when Ja has played.
