WASTED YEARS: Are the New Orleans Pelicans Wrong to RUN IT BACK with Zion Williamson Again?

New Orleans Pelicans gamble on continuity as Jamal Mosley steps in as head coach. With the roster virtually unchanged and Bennedict Mathurin the only notable addition, can a coaching swap turn around last season’s 26-win disappointment—or will the front office face tough questions about its decision-making?

Jake Madison breaks down the Pelicans’ high-stakes evaluation year, ownership’s role in running it back, and the impact on fan morale. Discussion covers why results must matter for Zion Williamson, Trey Murphy, and the entire core, plus the franchise’s history of hesitancy to commit to a true rebuild or all-in push. Closing out with DeMarcus Cousins’ legacy and that unforgettable 44-24-10 night, Jake Madison asks: how much longer can New Orleans wait for answers?
