Pelicans NOT Directionless: ESPN’s FLAWED Analysis | Two Paths Ahead for New Orleans

National media keeps saying the Pelicans are lost, but the team isn’t directionless. It’s just figuring out which path to fully commit to. I’ll explain in today’s episode of Locked On Pelicans.

Basically saying the Pelicans are lost, directionless, but I don’t think they are. I think there’s two paths for them to go down and they just haven’t fully committed to one yet. Doesn’t mean they’re directionless. It just means maybe it’s indecisive or something, but it’s not that. I’ll explain in today’s episode of Locked On Pelicans.

So, the theme of today’s show is about the Pelicans kind of figuring out what direction they want to go down. And then the Giannis situation kind of could upend all of that in a very positive way for New Orleans. So over at ESPN, they put an out an article that was NBA All in Tears. What all 30 teams are chasing in 2025 2026 and they kind of grouped every NBA team into a couple of buckets. The first bucket is all in on winning a championship before the window closes. That had the Nuggets, Bucks, and Timberwolves in there. All in on an extended championship window. The Cavaliers, Rockets, Knicks, Thunder, Magic are in that one. All in on building around Youngs, the Hawks, Pistons, Grizzlies, Trailblazers, and Spurs. All in on two timelines, the Warriors, Clippers, Lakers, Heat, Mavs, and 76ers. And then all in on a gap year, the Boston Celtics, and Indiana Pacers. All in on draft positioning, tanking Nets, Hornets, Jazz, Wizards. All in on nothing with a question mark. The Bulls, Pelicans, Sacramento Kings, and Toronto Raptors. And here’s what ESPN had to say about New Orleans. Since last summer, the Pelicans have traded for DeJonte Murray, who subsequently subsequently tore his Achilles. Moved on from Brandon Ingram for future draft capital, traded the number 23 pick in this year’s draft, plus an unprotected pick next year to move up to number 13 to draft Derek Queen in June. The end result is a team that could be in the playing tournament if everything breaks right. And if it doesn’t, the Hawks could easily be in line for a top five pick in what’s expected to be a loaded 2026 draft. End quote. That final paragraph is the key. The end result is a team that could be in the play tournament if everything breaks right. And if it doesn’t, they’re giving up a top five pick in what’s expected to be a loaded draft. Yeah, that’s exactly what the Pelicans did. I don’t find that directionless necessarily. Gunning for the playing tournament. While maybe it does keep you in NBA purgatory in a sense, you know, where you’re you’re not competing for a title, but you’re not good enough you’re not bad enough to bottom out, you know, isn’t not having a direction, right? It’s not not doing nothing here. You know, if you did that for multiple years in a row, which is kind of what the Bulls are doing, right? So to lump the Pelicans in with the Bulls doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. That might be a different story. But the Pelicans are trying to make the playoffs. Trying to make the playoffs. Simple as that. They’re trying to be competitive. That’s what this team is trying to do. You might not agree with the decision to do that. An entirely different story and different conversation. You might not think they’ll get there. Totally fine. I was just on our locked on fantasy basketball show. Make that your second listen today. Put a lockdown on podcast network your team every day. You know, and host Josh Lloyd kind of asked me, you know, what’s the feeling inside the building? The feeling inside the building over on Airline Drive with the Pelicans is this team can be competitive. this group, this front office ownership, everyone really believes they’re better than what everyone else thinks that they are and thus it’s kind of influenced their decision to go for it this year, right? They’re not going through a rebuild. There might be some ownership stuff in that, too, where it’s like, “No, we’re not going to rebuild. We want to be competitive.” So, they’re trying to do that. That’s what it is. But here’s how this kind of also works, right? You know, they’re building around Zion and so thus making the playoffs is a good thing. That’s what they’re trying to do. They’re trying to make the playoffs and be competitive. And ESPN is just ignoring having some success in what they wrote there, right? There’s no it’s either championship or or or tanking essentially or building around young guys. That’s what it is. There’s no be competitive and have a good enough season to use as a springboard for something else. That’s they’re missing that here, right? Making the playoffs is a good thing. Being competitive in basketball is a good thing. And that’s what the Pelicans are attempting to do. But here’s the thing with this, right? If it does go bad, yeah, they’re giving a top pick to the Atlanta Hawks. Maybe, you know, the lottery proved differently for New Orleans this year. That’s still a crapshoot, but if it goes bad, the Pelicans can very easily pivot and that’s what people are ignoring around this team. We’ll talk about the two timelines approach because that’s what they’re doing here. The the now timeline is probably make the play in tournament. It’s not a high ceiling for a now timeline, but that’s what it is. And then the rest of it is development of guys like Jeremiah Fears, Trey Murphy, Dererick Queen, and Herb Jones or continued development of some of those guys. If they are bad, they could easily pivot and salvage the year in my opinion and kind of fall in that bucket of building around where was it? Building around young cores. If you count Jeremiah Fears, Derrick Queen, Trey Murphy, Herb Jones as a young core, you can pivot to building around that group. No, you might not have a top five pick that goes to the Atlanta Hawks, but if they’re losing and Zion is healthy and playing well, you can trade Zion for something and get some pieces back and have stuff to build around Jeremiah Fear’s Derrick Queen, who in theory and Trey Murphy, who are kind of the like future of the team here. You can pivot to development if you need to. It’s a two-time approach. There’s problems with that. We’ll look at that in the next segment here, but I don’t think the Pelicans are directionless. I just think they haven’t decided which path which with with patch with which which path there we go to to fully commit to. But the nice thing is they have an option to do so. You know they’re looking at two timelines here with some of these teams. That’s one of the things. And the Warriors are in there. What is the future for the Warriors beyond next year? You’re not building around Jonathan Kaminga. You’re not building around Moses Moody. What they’re saying here is, you know, Golden State could have cap space. Again, we’ve talked about this at Nauseium and so has tons of other people. That’s not how you build a team anymore through free agency. So, what good is that cap space going to do, right? Cap flexibility is one thing, but cap space is different. You know, if you have cap space, the way you should use it is by renting it out to other teams bad contracts and get draft picks back in return for it. Okay, that that sucks. Like that sucks. You’re bad for years if that’s going to be the case. So, putting the team like the Warriors in two timelines where if you pivot, you can’t really pivot to a second timeline because you don’t have one other than maybe cap flexibility that doesn’t mean much doesn’t move me here. The Pelicans can pivot to a two to a more developmental focused timeline by trading away guys that you can get anything in return for and then build around Fears and Queen and Trey Murphy and Herb Jones. that would be my core going forward. So, if you do that, they’re in good position to do that because they got the guys in the building already. That is what ESPN is forgetting about or not thinking about when it comes to this. These tiers are really not great. And I question some of the the teams that are in these tiers in the first place, right? Like, why are the Houston Rockets in an extended championship window when you have a 38-year-old Kevin Durant? And why are not why are they not in the winning a championship before the window closes? I mean, they have some things to keep them going, but you get the point that I’m saying. If Kevin Durant’s the guy that gets you over the hump, it’s not like you can trans transition to your next Kevin Durant or anything like that. That guy doesn’t exist. It’s just KD. So, I think they’re really missing the point that the Pelicans have two paths for them in in front of them, and they just haven’t committed to one just yet. They could go all in and try and be even more competitive this year. You know, you could trade other future draft picks for a better center or to upgrade the roster in a capacity. They maybe do that if they realize, hey, Zion is healthy and we look really good. They have that direction they can go down. They can play it kind of both ways and stick with two timelines or they could go a developmental route. I like having the options open that I can clearly see the pathways towards if you decide one of those presents the best opportunity for you. That’s better than some of these other teams that don’t have either one that they can pivot to, right? The Bulls don’t have a second timeline they can pivot to. The Kings certainly don’t either. the Raptors don’t. Those teams are just all trying to be competitive because also that’s what you’re supposed to do in the NBA. And I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad thing. So, I do think whether you agree with the moves that the Pelicans have made this off seasonason or not, maybe you wonder about the clunky fit with the roster, you have questions about coaching with this group, they have three options available to them and I think that’s a good thing. Now, this can backfire and I want to look at that. That’s coming up here next in today’s episode of Locked On Pelicans. Two timelines can be kind of fraught. Let’s look at that. And then the biggest wild card which has to do with Giannis in Milwaukee. That’s coming up here later in today’s episode of Locked On Pelicans.

I’m excited to see who the QB1 is going to be. Is it going to be Tyler Shuck? That’s who I’m rooting for. Hoping for good things here. Lockdown Saints with Ross Jackson is going to be in California covering all the practices, everything you need to know about this team. Make him your second listen today. Part of the Lockdown podcast network. Your team every day. So, we just went over the Pelicans kind of have three directions they can go towards. You know, they just need to rate for the right opportunity to choose one. You don’t need to choose in this exact moment. Maybe injuries derail the season. You pivot to a more developmental approach. Trade guys away. Get whatever you can back and continue building around the guys that you think very highly of in Jeremiah fears, Dererick Queen, Trey Murphy, and Herb Jones. And maybe even Mei is in that group, too, and Micah Peavey. You can do all of that. Maybe it’s, oh man, we’re good. Zion’s good. Let’s go win. And you make a big trade. Why would you need to decide this right now? Nothing needs to be decided about this right now. So, I like that they’re kind of figuring this all out. Maybe you can kind of bridge the gap, make the playoffs through the playing tournament this year, get some minutes for Jeremiah Fears and Derek Queen and you’ll feel good about all of that and, you know, kind of address the two timelines thing. But here’s the thing, two timelines does have problems with it and that is a concern the Pelicans are going to need to actively figure out and manage. And that’s why I’m not a fan of the two timelines approach truthfully. And you know, you’re you’re seeing kind of the Lakers try and figure out two timelines, winning around LeBron James right now, but also kind of building with Luca Donuch in mind. The Clippers went all in on a really old team to preserve tap space. We’ll see. Phillies hoping Joel Embiid and Paul George hold up until you can get guys like that. They’ve drafted Tyrese Maxi, Jared McCain, VJ Edgecom to really help with all of that. Right. the Mavericks trying to win around uh Anthony Davis and an injured Kyrie Irving and Luke and you know building for the future around Cooper Flag. I get all of it. I don’t know what the Miami Heats two timelines are. That one doesn’t make a ton of sense to me anyway. No, nor the Warriors here, but two timelines can stop you from going doing either of these things particularly well, right? two timelines is kind of about developing guys and building for the future and then having the flexibility to make other big moves around that core group of guys that you have, right? The Warriors don’t have that core group of guys yet, so they’re not on two timelines. Same for the Miami Heat in my opinion. Lakers, yeah. Mavs, yeah. So, you need to make sure you have the flexibility to build around them in the future. And look, you know, trading away your first round pick next year unprotected in what’s a loaded draft or a very good draft definitely harms the ability to do that. Trading away future draft capital prevents you from being able to add more around the team or giving you the flexibility that you might need. You know, it also is then stopping them from going allin this season, right? Chimda of Intheo wrote about this recently of like a big trade for Walker Kesler that gets you a high-end starting center by giving up like two I don’t know the exact trade or what the I don’t remember it off the top of my head but giving up one or two draft picks in the future. Now that kills your two timelines approach because you’re going to need those picks but it makes you better this year. But can you do that right? How do you straddle the line between, you know, that win now and development one while trying to build for it and factor in the head coach and development of young guys who need minutes? You know, if you’re trying to win, I was just on lockdown fantasy basketball. Again, this show is going to be dropping. I think it’s out now. Go give it a listen. You know, talking with Josh Lloyd and he said he thinks Jeremiah Fears is going to be one of the worst rotation players in the league next year. You know, it doesn’t mean that Fears will be bad. It’s just it’s a rookie who’s not going to be good defensively, who might struggle to adapt to the NBA, but you need to give him minutes and thus you’re going to lose more then. So, it hurts one of your timelines, right? Same thing for Derek Queen when he gets healthy. Straddling the line between the two doesn’t really work out and prevents you from doing one or the other to kind of the best of your ability. So, while the Pelgans don’t need to make a decision on it now, if you have these three paths in front of you, compete now, two timelines, focus on development, you can’t walk that middle one all season long because I think it’s going to prevent either of those other two from really happening. If you’re going to go for it, go for it. Right? We talked about the Leroy Jenkins moment. A lot of y’all like that. I’m old enough to know what that is. Um, you know, and that’s that’s there, right? or focus on development and build around the young guys and give them plenty of developmental minutes because you need that. There’s nothing wrong with that in my opinion. You just need to kind of pick one eventually and go to it. I I’m going to talk more in tomorrow’s show about when that point might be. You know, is it around December? Is it around the trade deadline? I do think there’s going to be a clear time where you have an idea and need to start making some decisions about it that involves the coaching staff and other things, too. This is actually a Twitter question um sent in that I think is also really good. The other reason I’m saying you don’t need to fully commit to one or the other right now is the Giannis situation in Milwaukee is still lingering. And we’ll talk about that a little bit more in the next segment here. But that’s going to factor into this too, I think. So you’re trying to straddle a line now, but I don’t think you can do that fully all season long. Now you can commit to development without trading away guys and you know Zion or whatever but I think at that point you should just focus on that and realize okay we’re going to need a year or two before we’re we’re you know we’re competitive again and while they might be focusing on draft positioning in this NBA all allin tiers next season that can be a good thing if you feel you have the core pieces in place with Jeremiah Fears and Derek Queen but the Pelicans have options available to them more so than a lot of the other teams that we’ve talked about here. And I do at least think that’s good. Having options is a good thing, right? Having directions you can go is a good thing. You need to make the right choices and choose the right direction to go down. And maybe there’s questions if the Pelicans will do that. Totally fair and valid thing to ask, but we all this is unknown right now, right? And I think that’s kind of, you know, the big questions around the team. But to say they’re all in on nothing, I think is silly in my opinion, especially because, and I need to pull up the NBA future draft picks here. And let me let me do that. You know, the Pelicans still have a Bucks pick in the future that could really factor into things here. And especially because, well, we’re waiting to see what happens with Giannis. That could impact them this year or next season, too. So, that’s a very, very good thing. and they potentially have two top four picks in next year’s draft. Not next year, the year after, so 2027. Let’s look at that and what it could mean for the Pelicans. Why the Giannis situation kind of being out there could change their trajectory one way or the other. Let’s talk about that. That’s coming up here next in today’s episode of Locked On Pelicans. Today’s episode of Locked On Pelicans is brought to you by Monarch Money. You ever wish managing your money felt easier?

The big kind of questions. He asked me about it. We talked about it. It’s out right now. Go make locked on fantasy basketball with the literal goat Josh Lloyd of fantasy basketball. No one’s better in the freaking world. Your second listen today. Part of the Lockdown Podcast Network. Your team every day. So Sham Shirani was on ESPN talking about Giannis and a potential trade request. Basically saying like he’s still thinking about things. Nothing’s happening just yet. And while I’m skeptical that he’s going to ask a trade and that Milwaukee would even trade him should that happen, I still don’t think he is. I’ve been very consistent on that all off season. Kind of thus devaluing some of the picks that the Pelicans could have. Makes that Derek Queen trade look a little bit better in my opinion because Milwaukee should at least be competitive. And it’s not like you’re giving them two cracks at a top five pick. It’s really just one on the Pelicans side. Although injuries could change all of that. you know, in 2027, they have the more favorable basically they have the swap option of they have two picks, sorry, is what it is. They have next year they have two first round picks. Hold on. The Pelicans and the Bucks. And basically, the better of the two goes to New Orleans and then the other one goes to Atlanta if it’s five through 30. But say the Bucks trade Giannis and are real bad in 2026, not this season. maybe gets traded at the trade deadline or whatever, you know, and then you’re looking at next next season in the draft in 2027. They could have two top four picks because they get say the Pelicans are I’m trying to figure out the best way to explain this and I should have planned this out. Basically, they have a chance at two top four picks if their pick and the Bucks picks end up in the top four in the 2027 NBA draft. And so thus, if Milwaukee ends up trading Giannis, again, New Orleans probably needs to be involved because they have that pick and there’s potential to move that pick, too. Atlanta gets it otherwise. So, the Pelicans get the better of the two picks and then if it’s 5 through 30, the Hawks get the other one. That’s from the Dejonte Murray trade. But you can still trade some of that that one through four part or try and get it back to Milwaukee in a case. So, this has potential to send the Pelicans in one of those other two directions, not down the middle anymore. You know, if Giannis gets traded and New Orleans gets involved in the trade as kind of a third, fourth, fifth, sixth team, something like that, you might be able to get a good piece in return and thus it’s putting you more on that compete now timeline. Make the playoffs kind of going all in for it right now and being as competitive as possible. you know, maybe you get a good young player out of this and now you’re kind of adding to the development side of things and you need to focus on that. You know, the Giannis situation has potential to really send New Orleans in a different direction whenever this might happen. That’s why you don’t need to make a decision on this right now. Guys can get traded in August and September. We’ve seen it. Kyrie Irving was traded in August or September, I forget which. Um Donovan Mitchell was traded in September. those kind of big groundbreaking league changing trades do happen in those in that time frame. I know it’s the slow season here. That’s because it’s uncommon, but it doesn’t mean it can never happen. There’s potential for that. So, if Giannis decides, hey, I want out later and just makes his mind later, which would be a mistake. You want to do it earlier on in June before the draft or at the trade deadline. But say he does, the Pelicans could have their direction become even clearer to them later. But if you’ve already picked one, say they already went development and now you’re getting a good player in that trade as a third team involved with Giannis, you don’t have the option now being like hyper competitive when maybe you could have. And so it’s smart that they haven’t picked the direction yet and are kind of letting the opportunity slowly I’m trying to think of the right word like unveil themselves. I’m off today. I apologize. So, they have directions they can go in and I think that’s a good thing and they don’t need to make a decision on it just yet. And, you know, based on Joe Dumar and how he’s operated this off season that when that direction does present itself, he’s going to be aggressive about it, right? There’s no doubt in my mind that when it’s like this is direction we got to go in, he’s going to lean in hard. It’s that meme of the car turning to like get off the interstate where it’s running late and you see like the smoke and everything from him and the whole the car is about to like drift over. It’s going to be literally that when the opportunity presents itself, they are going to go hard in that direction. Whether it’s being competitive or re kind of going through a rebuild and more developmental focus and adding and building around a young core, they won’t straddle the line anymore with two timelines and they’re going to pick one. I don’t doubt that at all. and you have a GM who is very decisive or lead basketball decision maker who is very decisive and just kind of goes with it. That’s the type of person you do need at the helm of this sort of thing. You can disagree with how they’ve done it and what they’re doing, but when that direction presents itself, I don’t doubt that they will lean hard into that and at least go for that. And there’s something to be said for all that. Let me know what you think. Do you agree? Do you disagree? Let me know in the comments down below on YouTube. And that’s going to do it for this episode of Locked On Pelicans. As always, I’m your host JakeMadison, Nola Jake on Twitter. We back with y’all tomorrow talking about December and February of next year. See y’all next time.

New Orleans Pelicans at a crossroads? Unpacking the team’s strategic patience and potential paths forward.

Jake Madison challenges the notion that the Pelicans lack direction, arguing they’re strategically keeping options open. He analyzes ESPN’s controversial team categorization, the challenges of a two-timeline approach, and how Giannis Antetokounmpo’s situation in Milwaukee could impact New Orleans’ future. Madison also explores Joe Dumars’ decision-making style and its implications for the team’s trajectory.

Tune in for an in-depth look at the Pelicans’ roster flexibility, draft considerations, and the delicate balance between immediate competitiveness and long-term development.
