New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans lost on Friday night, despite yet another monster night out of the guy they signed to replace DeMarcus Cousins.
Julius Randle scored another twenty-six points and hauled in thirteen rebounds in the 107–103 loss. He’s scored 37, 27 and 26 in his last three and his season averages are creeping closer to 20 and 10.

The increased production in the counting statistics haven’t led to more wins for New Orleans, which continues to sink further under .500. They just don’t stand out in the Western Conference and will probably teeter on the bubble of the playoffs unless they do something drastic and trade Anthony Davis.

I can’t help but feel like these are two awful similarly-built teams and wonder how the fortunes may be different, if Detroit were part of the West and New Orleans could feast on the East.
Just like when these two teams got together last year, four extremely talented big men will share the floor together, without counting Nikola Mirotic.
Detroit Pistons
The total, as a result, will be sky-high because neither team is particularly fond of playing defense, either. It could have the feel of an old 60s NBA game, flying up and down the court on a Sunday afternoon. Sounds fun to me.
Detroit got nearly fifty between Blake Griffin and Andre Drummond on Friday night against Philly but it wasn’t enough to avoid losing its third game in a row, 117–111. Philadelphia was without its sensational big man, Joel Embiid

Once again, the outside shooting was Detroit’s kryptonite. The Pistons missed their last twelve three-point shots in the loss and are now shooting under thirty-two percent as a team. Dwane Casey insists shots will start falling; his players and fans are likely wondering when.
It was announced that Ish Smith will miss the next couple weeks with a hip problem. He is the leader of Detroit’s second unit, which isn’t great with him. It is only going to struggle more without its floor leader.

It’s always tempting to take New Orleans on the road but usually doesn’t pay off. It’s harder for me to justify making a play on Detroit, as badly as it’s struggling now.
