The Pelicans’ point guard sitch is looking somewhat dire right now. With the starter (Jrue Holiday) on a minutes restriction and the backup (Norris Cole) doing his best Stephen-Curry-From-4-Years-Ago impression with an ankle injury, the Pelicans are left with no choice but to give some serious scrubs some serious minutes:
-Nate Robinson (waived for being short)
-Ish Smith (fast, and…fast)
-Toney “Baloney” Douglas (familiar with the system? let’s go with that)
-Bo McCalebb (waived in preseason for being Macedonian)
The only thing that would make this complete is the Pelicans somehow acquiring both Nate Wolters and Gal Mekel. That would be the final step in robbing Anthony Davis of a year of his prime.
