Pelicans Eyeing a Victory Perch Against Clippers at Smoothie King Center
As the New Orleans Pelicans prepare to host the LA Clippers at the Smoothie King Center, fans can anticipate an electrifying matchup. The Pelicans have been showcasing a strong performance trend, as evidenced by their recent games.
In their last game against the Indiana Pacers, the Pelicans dominated with a decisive 129-102 victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display with an impressive 56 percent field goal percentage and a staggering 47 percent from beyond the arc. They also excelled in fast-break points, scoring 28 out of possible fast-break attempts.
Prior to that, while facing off against the Pacers away from home, they suffered a narrow defeat with a score of 114-123. Despite this loss, they maintained commendable shooting accuracy with a field goal percentage of 47 percent and an excellent free throw percentage of 83 percent.
The game before that saw them triumph over the New York Knicks with another powerful offensive showing – putting up 115 points and maintaining high efficiency from both two-point range (49 percent) and three-point range (53 percent).
These statistics indicate that while defense has been solid for New Orleans, it's their offense that has been particularly potent. With such consistent scoring ability across multiple games – especially from long-range – fans can expect them to leverage this strength in their upcoming home game against the Clippers.
The venue may play into New Orleans' hands as well; playing at home in front of their supporters could provide an additional boost to maintain their offensive momentum and potentially secure another win for their record.
Fans eager to catch this promising clash can tune in on March 15th at 7:00 PM Central Time. The game will be broadcasted on BSNO and BSSC networks for those who want to witness whether the Pelicans can continue flying high or if they'll face resistance from the visiting Clippers.
