New Orleans Pelicans come to The Greenbrier

The New Orleans Pelicans’ 2015-16 season formally gets under way today, with Media Day activities taking place at the team’s facility in Metairie.

The artist had plenty or space with which to work, particularly along Davis’ bicep, because the New Orleans Pelicans’ best player has bulked up.

Anthony Davis chose to honor his late grandfather this offseason with a new tattoo on his upper right arm. “When you start actually going against people and all that, it’s a lot different”. The pelicans went 45-27 in the 2014-15 season before being swept by the eventual champions in the Golden State Warriors. “But that’s going to be key to us also is that how do we handle the expectations, the praise, the pats on the back, the blue collar mentality, because that’s when I thought we were at best, playing with urgency and desperation”, Demps said.

“If you take a look at our team overall, I think we are in position to do something special in this town, ” Gentry said.

Meanwhile, Tyreke Evans, who’ll start at point guard this season, has little doubt that Davis remains quick as ever.

“He and his representatives called us up and said they’d pay their own way out here to try out for the team, and he did that”.

“He’s very capable of making that shot”.

“Hopefully we can go further in the postseason than we did last season, ” said Davis, who signed a five-year, $145 million extension in July.

“I love this team”. I really believe that. “He is the leader of our team and he’s going to be the leading scorer”. “We want to set high standards”.

The Tall Blacks and Breakers shooting guard has been included in the 18-strong group to attend the Pelicans training camp in West Virginia (beginning on Wednesday, NZ time) after impressing coaches with what he was able to produce at three days of organised workouts. Before they can fly off to the Greenbrier and a resort vacation training camp they must sit down with the local media.
