And 90 of their 130 games missed are by 3 guys that would never have seen the court anyway, so your point is?

I just can't believe people are ready to throw in the towel and we're only 3.5 games out of 8th place.
I dont think we're screwed. Things certainly dont look good but we have a chance. The schedule is really tough at the end of January (LAC, GSW, POR, MEM, DET, OKC, SA, HOU from Jan 14-30). If they go 4-3 or 5-2 (HOU, MEM, BRK, MIN x2, CLE x2) in the next 7, and bring back EP and Mirotic in that time, we could go .500 in the rough stretch to end January. The schedule going into the AS break isn't too bad so that could be the time to go on a win streak. Injury luck will no doubt be a factor but if the Pelicans get luck for the first time ever (knock on wood) and make a trade, they could be right back in the playoff race. A lot of things have to break right but it's possible and I'll remain hopeful.
