Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 94 – Offseason Updates for Indiana Pacers and New Orleans Pelicans. / We talk about a couple of surprise teams from last season. Both teams won 48 games and made some noise in the postseason. The Pacers pushed the Cavaliers as hard in the postseason as any team in the Eastern Conference. Victor Oladipo stepped up and had an all-NBA season and was awarded as the league’s most improved player. They are bringing back largely the same roster with the important addition of Tyreke Evans. What are the areas in which they need to demonstrate improvement? The Pelicans swept the Blazers in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs. Jrue Holiday was the best guard in that series. They have added Julius Randle and Elfrid Payton. Will they have an opportunity to build upon last season and improve upon their results from last season?All of this and more.Follow Dane on Twitter: @DaneMooreNBAFollow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastLearn more about your ad choices.

'Buying or Selling the Pelicans Bench?' with Grubb + Oleh + Kevin / The New Orleans Pelicans were thrilled to add Elfrid Payton and Julius Randle in free agency. They even brought back Ian Clark at the minimum! But will it be enough heading into the regular season?

Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 74– Day One Deep Dive / The Raptors held true to the identity of their 2017-18 regular season, even without Fred Van Vleet. They were not strictly dependent upon the shooting of Lowry and DeRozan. The Wizards will need to try to defend in game 2 with suboptimal rim protection. The Sixers shortened their rotation in the second half versus the Heat and it made all the difference in the game. What will Spo do going into game 2? The Spurs were not very inspiring in their game 1 loss to the Warriors. Are their any adjustments they can make with Curry sitting out all of the first round? The Pelicans got a road win to take advantage in their series with the Blazers. Both team were gassed at the end of the game but get a couple days of rest before game 2.

Pels gonna Pel!!

Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 51 – Are the Raptors the favorite to make the finals? Team Updates for Pelicans, Grizzlies, Nuggets, P / The Cavaliers had a rough week. Are the Raptors playing better than any team in the Eatern Conference right now? If the playoffs started today would we consider them to be the favorite to win the Eastern Conference finals and make the finals? The Pelicans had some nice results this week? Do they enough depth and diversity on the roster to moves toward the middle of the Western Conference playoff standings? The need to add to their roster. Where do they need to add? The Grizzlies season is more than off track. What should be their objectives for the rest of this season? Why might Tyreke Evans prefers to stay in Memphis for the rest of the season rather than being move to a playoff bound team? The Nuggets are a strange team. Could they get better via subtraction rather than addition? The Pistons are trying to survive in the post Reggie Jackson era (of this season). What should be their objectives for the rest of the season? Why might Avery Bradley prefer to finish the season elsewhere? And who got our awards this week? Listen and find out. All of this and more.

126 - NBA Western Conference Report: HOU/LAL/UTA Falling, LAC/MIN/OKC/PHX Rising / Welcome back, Hardwood Knocksers! - Most of the NBA's teams have officially crossed the halfway threshold of their schedule, which can mean only one thing: Andy and Dan need to hand out midseason report cards. - We start in the Western Conference, where things have gotten a little weird and chaotic and, thus, awesome since our quarterpole grades. The Houston Rockets look human. The Utah Jazz appear finished. The Minnesota Timberwolves are surging. The Oklahoma City Thunder are kind of following suit. The San Antonio Spurs remain the San Antonio Spurs. The Golden State Warriors are still the Golden State Warriors. - The Phoenix Suns are sort of frisky. The Denver Nuggets are disappointing, as expected and exceeding initial impressions all at the same time. The Dallas Mavericks are embodying blah, while the New Orleans Pelicans have prime real estate on Mediocre Boulevard. The Portland Trail Blazers might have turned a corner. The Sacramento Kings and Memphis Grizzlies have not. The Los Angeles Lakers are no longer overachieving. The Los Angeles Clippers are rekindling their playoff hopes. - Almost needless to say, then, we have a lot of ground to cover and less than eternity to cover it. So let's get cracking! - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

What to do with ORL/MIA' depleted rosters? CRUSH THEM / The Pelicans once again find themselves below .500 with a favorable schedule on the way. - The Pelicans head to the East Coach to face two injury depleted teams in the Orlando Magic, fresh off a six game skid, and the Miami Heat, who have won five of seven, but will be without five major rotational pieces including Goran Dragic and Hassan Whiteside. - Can the Pelicans capitalize to pull back above .500? - They better...For everyone's sake. - Follow us @TheBirdWrites - Blogtalkradio.com/thebirdwritesnba - Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-bird-writes-nba-podcast-for-new-orleans-pelicans/id1254580823?mt=2 - Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/preston-ellis/the-bird-writes-nba-podcast-for-new-orleans-pelicans?refid=stpr - Tune In: https://tunein.com/radio/The-Bird-Writes-NBA-Podcast-on-New-Orleans-Pelicans-p1012419/ - Google Play: https://play.google.com/music/m/Ikgqrpz5xjivbhyutvkj5lya3ni?t=The_Bird_Writes_NBA_Podcast_for_New_Orleans_Pelicans - - See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Big Picture: Wizards recap, Woj article, Santa's list, Predictions and more! / Travis and Trevor got back together for a Christmas miracle: a Big Picture Boys podcast! - The two talk about a throwaway loss to the Wizards, memorable losses to the Rockets and Nuggets and how comfortable (sitting by the fireside, cup of hot cocoa in hand) the fans should feel about the Pels’ playoff chances. - Trevor dissects a recent Adrian Wojnarowski article in ESPN detailing Anthony Davis’ desire to make the playoffs; the word “winning” came up 22 times. This season’s wins or losses might mean a long future of Pels playoff games, or a team blown up by disappointment. - Davis specifically mentions other peers of his, including Giannis Antentokuonmpo, Kristaps Porzingis and Joel Embiid. Is he out for blood in upcoming matchups with them? - Will AD end up in Boston, as per every rumor on Twitter ever? Trevor sure hopes not. - Why is the team so bad defensively? Travis can’t figure it out. - Will Solomon Hill be a difference-maker when he comes back? - And, of course, what players (and coaches) will get a fancy new toy from Santa, and who will be left with nothing but coal? - Finally, the guys give quick takes on the 5-game slate coming Christmas day, Trevor insisting that most of Travis’ predictions are off base. Trav’s picks: Philly over the Knicks, Golden State over the Cavs, Boston over the Wizards (Trevor agrees here, folks!), Houston in a blowout against OKC and the Lakers in a close one to close out the night. What say you?

122 - Anthony Davis' Future with Pelicans and NBA All-Star Roster Predictions / The NBA will open its All-Star voting on Dec. 21, which basically means the league is begging Andy and Dan to build a 24-player pool for February's showcase. - Though the Association has tweaked the rules, allowing for captains who select their teammates irrespective of conference affiliation, 12 players from both the East and West must still be up for consideration: two starting guards, three starting frontcourt members, two reserve guards, three reserve froncourt contributors and two wild-card picks. - Players will be selected based off their performance to date, which takes into account health, team success and recent hot or cold stretches. Some inclusions are no-brainers, but we'd be remiss if we didn't say there were some tough cuts. Do the Oklahoma City Thunder even deserve to have an All-Star? Can both the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets get three representatives? Has Andre Drummond done enough to usurp guys like Kristaps Porzingis and Joel Embiid? Who should join LeBron James and Giannis Antetokounmpo in the East's starting frontcourt? - Before all this, though, we must address the one-eyebrowed pterodactyl in the room: Anthony Davis. - According to ESPN.com's Adrian Wojnarowski, several NBA teams remain "obsessed" with poaching him from the New Orleans Pelicans—the Boston Celtics among them. Can anyone convince the Pellies to give up on him, or is this just noise? - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio.

Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 42 – Western Conference Updates Pelicans Spurs Jazz Thunder Blazers Rockets Kings Mavericks
Full Court Press NBA Podcast Episode 42 – Western Conference Updates Pelicans Spurs Jazz Thunder Blazers Rockets Kings Mavericks / We continue our in-season analysis. The Pelicans bigs are dominating the competitions. But the lack of wing players on the roster are holding them back. Can they find a way to get and stay better than .500? The Spurs have gone back to Patty Mills to start at point guard, how does that affect the rotation? How does that help Kyle Anderson and Rudy Gay? The Jazz believe in themselves while most of the rest of us are writing them off after the Gobert injury. Are the Thunder what their record says they are? Or is it the net rating? The Blazers are the second best defensive rating in the league? Is the defense for real? The Rockets are playing really well but are key rotation players playing too much? The Kings are depressing, but as always we hope it gets better. The Mavericks are lining up for a good amount of ping pong balls. But what is up with Noel’s playing time? All of this and more.Follow us on Twitter: @willis_glen / @LawtonWillis / @presspodcastFollow us on FaceBook: @fullcourtpressnbaLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

115 - Hot-Seat Meter for NBA Coaches: From Doc and Kidd, to Donovan and Clifford / Seventeen NBA teams. Seventeen
115 - Hot-Seat Meter for NBA Coaches: From Doc and Kidd, to Donovan and Clifford / Seventeen NBA teams. Seventeen bad, to weird, to uncertain starts. Seventeen head coaches. - Sixty minutes. - An unknown number of jobs in jeopardy. - In the latest episode of Hardwood Knocks, Andy and Dan look at all 15 teams with records of .500 or worse, add in the Portland Trail Blazers and New Orleans Pelicans, and decide whether their head coaches should be worried about being canned before season's end. - A vast majority of these sideline-stalkers have nothing to worry about. The Los Angeles Lakers' Luke Walton and Memphis Grizzlies' David Fizdale are too new to their posts. They aren't getting the ax. Other clipboard-carriers have basically earned the right to keep their jobs as long as they want—such as Rick Carlisle of the Dallas Mavericks and Erik Spoelstra of the Miami Heat. A select few are simply coaching terrible teams that were supposed to be terrible (Sup, Dave Joerger?). - But these disclaimers don't apply to everyone. Nor do they necessarily inoculate each person they affect. - Will Fred Hoiberg last the year with the Chicago Bulls merely because they're as bad as advertised? Will the Utah Jazz resist reevaluating Quin Snyder's status because they lost players over the offseason and are slogging through injuries now? - And then we have the clear-cut cases—coaches indubitably on the hot seat: Doc Rivers with the Los Angeles Clippers, Steve Clifford with the Charlotte Hornets, Alvin Gentry with the New Orleans Pelicans, even Jason Kidd with the Milwaukee Bucks. Will they all last the year? - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes. You can also find us on Stitcher and BlogTalkRadio. And as 50 Cent's biopic suggests: Follow Andy Bailey (@AndrewDBailey), Dan Favale (@danfavale), the show (@HardwoodKnocks) and NBA Math (@NBA_Math) on Twitter or die trying. - - Learn more about your ad choices.

The Pelicans looked fantastic with him in the lineup, moving the ball more effectively than they have all season and cutting down on turnovers in dramatic fashion. - However, Rondo fell to his minute restriction at the end of the first half, and in the second Demar Derozan and the hot shooting Raptors did pretty much whatever they wanted to, whether it be taking open looks from deep, or easy, unencumbered lay ups. - It also should be noted AD/Boogie were very frustrated with the officials in this one, taking several elbows from Jonas Valanciunas. - - - Follow us @TheBirdWrites - Blogtalkradio.com/thebirdwritesnba - Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/es/podcast/the-bird-writes-nba-podcast-for-new-orleans-pelicans/id1254580823?l=en&mt=2 - Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/preston-ellis/the-bird-writes-nba-podcast-for-new-orleans-pelicans?refid=stpr - - See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Both players would return to action, and finish out the Pelicans first victory of the 2017/18 season, that saw many fans flinging themselves overboard in disgust late, and then breathing into a respirator by the time the clock said 0:00. - - See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jameer Nelson Reaction with Big Picture Boys / The New Orleans Pelicans signed Jameer Nelson yesterday in a report published by Shams Carania, and released bench unit scoring guard Jordan Crawford to make space on the roster for the veteran point guard. - Jordan Crawford dubbed "Instant Grits," was a popular late season addition last season, and averaged 39% from deep, but unfortunately and unguaranteed contract made him the most moveable piece at a time when the Pelicans seem desperate for depth at the point guard position. - Enter Jameer Nelson. The former All Star with the Orlando Magic enters his 14th season with the Pels after having finished last season in Chris Finch's system with the Denver Nuggets. Nelson averaged nine and five on 39% from three, 44% from the field. He should provide leadership at the point, as well as relinquish Jrue Holiday back to his more comfortable two position. - Follow us @TheBirdWrites - Blogtalkradio.com/thebirdwritesnba - Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/es/podcast/the-bird-writes-nba-podcast-for-new-orleans-pelicans/id1254580823?l=en&mt=2 - Stitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/preston-ellis/the-bird-writes-nba-podcast-for-new-orleans-pelicans?refid=stpr - - See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

DeMarcus Cousins, Meet the Playoffs(?): 2017-18 New Orleans Pelicans Preview / The New Orleans Pelicans are approaching perhaps the most
DeMarcus Cousins, Meet the Playoffs(?): 2017-18 New Orleans Pelicans Preview / The New Orleans Pelicans are approaching perhaps the most important season in franchise history. - This slant is neither hyperbolic or inflammatory. It's the truth. So much is riding on how the Pelicans fare this year, after missing the playoffs in each of the past two seasons. - Pretty much everything starts with DeMarcus Cousins' free agency. He will hit the open market in 2018, and while the Pelicans get to dangle a fifth year that no one else can, his return is hardly guaranteed. If they fall out of the playoff picture or get the sense he's itching for a relocation, they'll have to look at moving him around the trade deadline. - And if he leaves, Anthony Davis' future is suddenly shrouded in mystery, if not butter-thick panic. The notion that the Pelicans must shop him now is overblown (read: stupid). He cannot explore free agency until 2020 (player option), and the designated player exception he'll surely qualify for could keep him in town no matter what. - Lose Cousins, and the Pelicans are forced to confront Davis' future head on. They can give it another go in 2018-19, then reevaluate the situation when he's one year out from free agency; shop him around the league as a top-10—verging on top-five—player with two years left on his deal next summer; or keep him and hope for the best. - All this, of course, could become a non-issue if the Pelicans make the playoffs. But will they? Bourbon Street Shots' Mason Ginsberg (@MasonGinsberg) joins Hardwood Knocks to preview New Orleans' 2017-18 go-round, and all that's on the line beyond it. - As always, be sure to subscribe to and rate Hardwood Knocks on iTunes.
