NBA -- ​Pelicans​ can't figure out Magic, lose fourth straight​


PhilBoxing.com




NEW ORLEANS ? ​The New Orleans Pelicans' bad start to the season continued on Tuesday night when they fell to the Orlando Magic, 103-94, at the Smoothie King Center.

The Pelicans shot poorly from the field, making just 32 of 90 field goals while dropping to 0-4 and last place in the Southwest Division of the very tough Western Conference.

​​?Really disappointed. Disappointed all around really, I didn?t think we competed at the level that we needed to win.? Pelicans head coach Alvin Gentry ​expressed​​ his disappointment during the post-conference.

​​?I thought we didn?t do a very good job defensively, we got back cut? I didn?t think our offense got any rhythm to what we?re doing. We just got a lot of work to do. Time to do it right away​,​? ​Gentry​ added.

​Pelicans superstar Anthony Davis ​tallied 14 points and nine rebounds, but he made only 3-of-12 field goals. Eric Gordon topped New Orleans with 21 while Jrue Holiday and Ryn Anderson each had 14.

​?I feel very comfortable. I just got to make shots​,​? ​Davis said as his team hopes to rebound on Friday (Nov. 6) when the Pels host the Atlanta Hawks.

​It was Orlando's first win in four starts, a victory made possible by Evan Founier who registered 30 points. ​Nikola Vucevic contributed 22 points and Victor Oladipo added 12.

NOTES. ​Pelicans? injury update: Kendrick Perkins (right pectoral), Quincy Pondexter (left knee surgery), Norris Cole (left ankle sprain) and Tyreke Evans (right knee surgery) ​were​ out. Omer Asik (right calf strain) ​was ​questionable​ and did not play​.
