About this episode
NBA expansion rumors swirl, but could the New Orleans Pelicans finally switch to the Eastern Conference? Jake Madison reveals why a move east is unlikely, breaking down league geography, travel reduction strategies, and which teams—Minnesota Timberwolves or Memphis Grizzlies—are more probable candidates. How would a conference shift impact the Pelicans’ playoff prospects in a stacked Western Conference versus a less crowded East? Jeremiah Fears and DerIk Queen bring excitement to an otherwise overlooked Pelicans All-Star Weekend, showcasing their skills in the Rising Stars Game. Madison explores how their performances and ball-handling might catch attention from future free agents and boost New Orleans’ appeal. Plus, with the Birmingham Squadron relocating to Kenner as the “Laketown Squadron,” proximity could mean big benefits for player development and emergency call-ups. Will the Pelicans capitalize on young talent and strategic moves to change their NBA fortunes?
