Right now is a good time for physical recovery and focusing on the team's own needs.
“It's a great thing right now. You see what's happening throughout the league, (players being injured). It's being able to get some (physical) recovery, but also to focus on us and what we need to do.”
Depth and playing for each other are the strength of this team.
“Our depth is going to be the key for us this year. That has to be one quality that these guys understand. We play the right way, play for each other, this is going to be the strength of this team.”
Defense sustains the Pelicans and their early physical tone and effort pleased Mosley.
“Defense sustains you. I liked the effort, the energy, us flying around, covering for one another. Us being able to set the tone physically early is exactly what we'll need to continue to do.”
The Pelicans know their depth and are still sorting out which lineup combinations work best.
“I think we already we knew what type of depth we had, from top to bottom. It's just a matter of figuring out what pieces work together, what makes us the most dangerous... (trying different lineups and combinations), that takes a little time.”
