Two nights after an embarrassing home loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, the New Orleans Pelicans looked to get going against the Eastern Conference leading Cleveland Cavaliers.
The New Orleans Pelicans were again without guard Tyreke Evans, who will be out until at least after the All-Star break. The shorthanded Pelicans fought all game until late in the 4th. It is hard to get upset about the Pelicans performance on Saturday night, conisdering they were shorthanded and playing a superior team.
