NEW ORLEANS PELICANS ???? - THE BIG LEAGUE #9 - A STORY OF VOODOO AND HURRICANE IN JAZZ LAND I Welcome everyone to the Big League, the show that tells you the fabulous history of NBA franchises. On the surface, everything in the NBA is designed to try to balance the forces present. Salary caps and other lottery picks should, in theory, ensure a certain fairness. It would be unfortunate if a handful of franchises reigned indefinitely over the league. However, we have often told you: the NBA is a jungle, where the strongest devour the weakest. Certain inequalities cannot be erased. This is the famous difference between large and small markets. The franchise we are going to talk to you about today is clearly part of the second category. With some of the most talented players to ever set foot on a court, this team has, on several occasions, tried to overthrow the established hierarchy. For now, in vain… but that could well change in the years to come. This time, we allow ourselves a small deviation from our rules, since technically we are not going to tell you the entire story of a franchise. You will quickly understand why. Bayou, voodoo and wild jazz tunes, we set off to discover the most French city in America: New Orleans. Get out your trombones and trumpets, it's going to swing. Are you ready? Let's gooo! With the support of the Centre National du Cinéma et de l'Image Animée / CNC Talent. The Crossover is a channel imagined by vroom originals.
