Motivation is everything in the Orlando bubble. The Pelicans come off a tough loss to the Jazz and now stand in 11th place but just 3 1/2 games out of eighth. As of right now it looks like there will be three or four teams within four games of the eight seed that would trigger a round-robin for the final playoff bid. The Clippers are coming off a hard-fought loss of their own. The Clippers are also without Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell. The Clippers are locked in the playoffs while the Pelicans are playing for the playoffs. Take New Orleans.
