New Orleans Pelicans’ playoff hopes: Too early to tank?

Can the New Orleans Pelicans Turn Their Season Around? The New Orleans Pelicans, currently at 4-10, are just three games shy of the 10th seed Play-In spot. With key players returning from injury, is it too soon to consider tanking?

Host Jake Madison explores the Pelicans’ current situation, focusing on the performance of big men like Yves Missi and Karlo Matkovic, who recently returned from the G-League. The episode also covers Jaylen Nowell’s contract implications and potential trade strategies. Madison speculates on whether the Pelicans will opt for a salary dump trade if they slip further in the standings.

  1. We gotta stop the cycle for pushing to get our heads bashed in during the play in or 1st rd every year. We should be hoping this team is injured all year, Griff gets fired, Willie gets fired, and we trade Zion at the very least. This is year 6 of this garbage. I don’t want or need to see any more of this era to already know it has failed and it will never be a success.

  2. Does 3-16 not ring a bell? We are in November. WE ARE IN NOVEMBER!! With a franchise has never put together winning seasons 3 years in a row.

    If events play out right, they can outsource their tanking to the Bucks each of the next two years.

  3. Ive been saying since last season go after a center like Markkanen and trade BI and CJ while theyre still worth something.. The Pelicans team management is a joke they should ALLL be fired.

  4. Hey Jake would love your opinion on this..
    Trade BI & CJ for a Center like Markkanen then we could have a lineup like Murray, Herb, Murphy, Zion, Markkanen?
    Then with BI & CJ gone we've got room to develop Hawkins, Boston jr & Missi? I could see us actually being a complete team if we made those changes.
