2022 NBA PLAYOFFS THREAD

Throw out the season records and the seeding...the moment we got CJ, we became a different team. Hell, we were a .500 team without CJ when BI played after that disastrous 3-16 start....keep in mind he missed like 30 games.

With BI and CJ playing together, we are like 11-3 since the All-Star Break and we have home court advantage in this series now. I am willing to bet the Pelicans players and staff would say the same

no doubt - and out ultra youth has worked to our advantage a bit (I don’t think they’ll think their job got easier like they might if they were all 4th years) - but Suns will do everything they can to exploit our youth: get them in foul trouble, confuse them defensively ( but I don’t know either team well enough to know what that looks like)

Again all I’m saying is that yes our odds improve, but I don’t know if that makes us favorites
