But do you really think they would give an easy fight for Lakers? Because for sure they still fight back and would able to show that they can still defeat Lakers.

Also we are not going to sure if Lakers will automatically win against them since Pelicans still have high caliber players. But I understand your point on why you said that since somehow there's nothing to lose on side of Pelicans since they are 14th spot on standings. But that doesn't mean they give up since defeating Lakers still a big thing for them especially that these teams are chasing win to get a better spot on standing also on Playoffs.

Although for sure Pelicans have lower chance to win against Lakers, but we don't know what's going to happen since the game is not done yet.
