The New Orleans Pelicans faced playoff elimination at home vs. the defending champions, they needed what felt like a miracle to secure the 8th seed and a delightful first-round series vs. the Warriors. The Spurs win these games. That's what they do.
Only they didn't. The Pelicans won. And in doing so, they secured the 8th seed in the playoffs, returning to the postseason for the first time since 2011.
Making the playoffs for New Orleans took more than just Anthony Davis... but the Brow was a huge part. His 16 first-half points were the product of confidence and explosiveness.
