1)      Week 4 of the NBA schedule for New Orleans consists of three opponents with winning records – and currently identical marks – beginning with Monday’s home game vs. Houston (6-3) at 7 p.m. The Rockets matchup is followed by a Thursday home contest vs. the Clippers (6-3) and a Saturday tilt in Miami (6-3). According to ESPN.com, the Pelicans have played the 13th-most difficult schedule through Nov. 10, but that will certainly move up the ladder a bit over the next seven days.

2)      Tickets are available here for Monday’s game in the Smoothie King Center.

3)      In case you missed it, New Orleans broke through for its first road win of the season Saturday in Charlotte.

4)      Listen to the radio calls of the game from Saturday.

5)      Watch postgame video interviews with JJ Redick, Brandon Ingram, Kenrich Williams, Jrue Holiday and Alvin Gentry.
