Davis Down, Pelicans Out?

Hate to see talented players like Anthony Davis going down.
Tough luck, but your team is very young and very talented. No doubt you guys will be favored as top spor next season.

Damn that sucks man. You still have a lot of talent on the team and might be able to make a run, but its going to be an uphill battle and Portland and Utah have to be smiling just a little more today, even if it is a bad way to get an advantage.

Tough loss man, it's sad to see that happen, and more with the great season you're having.

Tough loss but you're not out yet. The Pelicans are a great team and will continue to play well

Well, you're not out of it yet, but it would be an absolute miracle if you ended up at #1 in the WC by season's end. You're only a game ahead of Portland and a few ahead of Utah, and I doubt you hold them off.

Man, tough break but there's still a lot of talent on this team.

Agreed. Our goal is top-4 in the West right now.

Tough loss man. I know how it feels. It's been two seasons for me. Just gotta weather the storm and keep your team in a position to succeed in the postseason.

I'd say the way you built your team, you'd be prepared to a Smart loss, but not a Davis one.
Though loss for sure, can only say I'm sorry about you. But you have pieces to get another PF to replace Davis, and we must not count a team with Smart to be down because of one injury.

Best of luck with the rest of the season mate!

Damn. That sucks losing your best player. I hope you still have a sucessful season. Hope he gets back asap

Yeah that's real rough. Deandre should be able to cover some of the void, but you'll need a scoring PF to help him out. I think you'll figure it out though.

Damn, sorry to see that was looking forward to us both being healthy and finally being able to compete against each other

There isn't an obvious bright side to this but I really want to see what Smart does with the extra shots and usage %. He could enter the Durant tier this season which would benefit your team when Davis comes back.

How ironic! both your star PF here and in the NLL were gone, sorry mate.

Davis loss is colossal but I don't think it ends your chances. I mean, Waiters comes back after the All-Star break and that alone is going to give you the best backcourt in the league. You still have DeAndre in the paint and I expect his numbers to increase. Landry should be able to step in just fine if you put him there. You still have one of the better teams in the conference so yall should be able to make some noise. Won't be surprised to see the Pelicans in the conference finals at all.

Although it's going to hurt without Davis in your lineup for the time being, your team seems deep enough to make a run in the playoffs. Hey, it's all about getting in. Once you're in, it's only about the hot hand. So maybe you strike it rich with someone on your roster, there's definitely some possibilities there. Besides, injuries are the true test of a franchise. Good luck man!

That hurts...No longer a favorite this year. You need Davis.
