New Orleans Pelicans
Following an All-Star break that saw the Sacramento Kings finally part ways with DeMarcus Cousins via a trade to New Orleans, fans and analysts across the league thought the Pellies had a shot at earning the eighth seed.
After all, no franchise parts ways with a young scorer like Buddy Hield and a draft pick in a stacked draft if it thinks it’s going to be back in the lottery.

Alas, here we are with one week left in the season and New Orleans is mathematically eliminated from postseason contention.
Beyond thinking this group could and likely would land the West’s eighth seed, many people wanted them to. Nobody in their right mind would’ve picked them to win a seven-game series against the Golden State Warriors, but man would it have been entertaining to watch the Dubs and their “death lineup” built around speed and shooting matchup up against the likes of DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis.
Golden State Warriors
We now know that this oh-so-desired matchup won’t be taking place in the postseason, but here we are on Saturday with a chance to see it before the year comes to an end.

If the Warriors are smart, they’ll look to simply run the Pelicans out of the gym. That shouldn’t be difficult considering it’s been their strategy against most teams all year, but we’re specifically saying that the Dubs should change their strategy defensively just to focus on two bigs who quite frankly haven’t proven they can win together yet.
Look for a guy like Draymond Green to excel in the eyes of a challenge. If he plays any center position in this one, he’ll be tasked with taking on one of the best two-man punches in the game in the frontcourt.
