Well, talk about a close call.
Ownership gave GM Dell Demps and Monty Williams preseason mandate to make playoffs to keep jobs, w/ no allowance for injuries. They made it.

The New Orleans Pelicans clinched the 8th seed last night with a 108-103 win over San Antonio. Anthony Davis led the way with 31 points and 13 rebounds.
Monty Williams has been the head coach in New Orleans since 2010, which is the last time he led them to the playoffs when their name was still the Hornets and they still had Chris Paul back then.
Yeah, that feels like a century ago.
