Looking back at the confidence a few people had in the Pelicans this offseason... Lol

What confidence? I said they would struggle out the gates with their injuries and adjustments to the new system.

Nice try though, but atleast use factual info next time you try to "burn" someone.

They're not only struggling, they're almost already out of chances to compete for a playoff spot. 
 
Pretty sure you didn't expect them to miss the playoffs.

That's not even remotely true. I've said this numerous times, but this isn't "The West" that we are used too. You can probably get in with 42 wins this year, the days of teams winning 48 games and missing the playoffs are gone for the time being. Right now they're sitting at 3-11, are 14th in the west, haven't been even somewhat healthy yet this year, have played the hardest schedule in the NBA thus far (three teams below .500 out of 14, overall win percentage of like 64%) and with all that said with 68 games remaining they're STILL just 4.5 games out of 5th place and 5.5 games out of 4th place.

There is actually more teams above .500 in the East this year so far (9) than the West (5).

When did you say this? I guarantee you the 8th seed in the West has more than 42 wins.

It's just funny to me that everything will get better "once they're healthy". At some point you gotta concede that players on this team simply have a tendency to get injured more than others. AD might still miss 15 more random games.
 
Not sold on them getting into the rhythm they need to get into the post season.

Plus we shouldn't even act like they would be a lock even if they stayed healthy. They were only in the playoffs last year because of OKC's injury problems.
