New Orleans Pelicans
What to do with DeMarcus Cousins?
This is a question that the New Orleans Pelicans need to answer sooner rather than later. At the moment, word is that they plan on re-signing DeMarcus Cousins after the season, when he hits the free agent open market.
Though, is that really the smart play?
The Pelicans failed to make the playoffs last season, after they traded for Boogie at the NBA All-Star break. And if they fail to make the playoffs this season again, with Boogie for an entire campaign, you really have to question whether this all-star frontcourt will ever work.
New Orleans is clinging to the 8th seed in the West, with a one game cushion over the LA Clippers.
