6) New Orleans Pelicans

New Orleans Pelicans point-man Rajon Rondo put up a vintage Rondo line against the Brooklyn Nets this week. In a 128-113 win, the former All-Star dished out a career-best 25 assists to lead his team to the big win. Oh, and he scored two points on 1-of-5 shooting as well.

You do you, man. Who cares if your team is five points per 100 possesions better when you’re on the bench. Keep hunting those dimes.

Rondo aside, the Pels are winners of three straight games and, like the rest of the West, don’t really seem interested in giving the Utah Jazz an easy re-entry into the playoff picture once their schedule eases up.

Next: No. 5
