Takeaways
- Everything that could have gone wrong for the Pelicans in this semi-final In Season Tournament game, did go wrong.
- All the Pelicans players looks nervous or timid except for CJ McCollum.
- It was a frustrating game because the Pelicans were not even competitive.
- For the first time since the 2013-2014 season, LeBron James took three charges in one game.
- The Pelicans next game will be on Monday, and they're going to need a good showing with some fire in them to redeem themselves from what happened against the Lakers.
