The New Orleans Pelicans, currently placed tenth in the Western Conference, have a decent shot at making it to the playoffs this season.

Shortly after their 123-95 win over the Lakers, the Pelicans updated their Twitter bio. “Beat the Lakers by 28 in LA,” the team wrote. In addition to that, they even invited people to their upcoming game against the Sacramento Kings, clearly hoping for a three-game winning streak.

Of course, fans had a lot to say about the new update from the Pelicans.

To many, the entire update was amusing. Certain fans asked the team to focus on Zion Williamson, who has been constantly under fire from fans. Furthermore, many believed that they were happier than they should be about beating the Lakers. As per fans, the Pelicans have been behaving as if they won the Finals following their Lakers win.

Moreover, fans also think the Lakers might not lead the Pelicans for long. Many just focused on the Lakers, and how they could be doing better.

Can New Orleans keep up their winning streak?

Looking at their current pace, the Pelicans maintain an advantage over the Kings. This was another season for the Pelicans without Williamson, who is recovering from his surgically repaired right foot. Recently traded CJ McCollum is currently leading the team (28 PPG), along with good support from the remaining roster.

The Kings, on the other hand, will play the New Orleans after winning against the OKC Thunder.

That being said, overall fans remain supportive of the Pelicans’ performance. With McCollum on board, the team certainly has a better shot at the playoffs. Of course, once Williamson returns after his recovery, fans are bound to expect more.
