Trey Murphy’s Career Night Shows WHY the New Orleans Pelicans Must SHAKE UP Their Roster FAST

New Orleans Pelicans squander Trey Murphy III’s electrifying 42-point outburst in a fourth quarter collapse against the Los Angeles Lakers. Trade rumors swirl as roster flaws are exposed, raising urgent questions about the team’s future direction and front office decision-making.

Topics include Yves Missi’s unexpected appearance in trade talks, center position woes, and the hotly debated CJ McCollum for Trae Young scenario. With the Pelicans on an eight-game losing streak, roster shake-ups loom. Will New Orleans blow it up or find a solution before the NBA trade deadline?

  1. The biggest problem with this team no matter who's in charge, there is a lack of respect for matchups, size and Big men. Their screwing up Yves Missi just like they did Jaxson Hayes. Karlo Matkovic rides the bench or is playing out of position!! Kevin Looney shouldn't have been on the team, the dude is undersized and slow. DeAndre Jordan would give better production, but hasn't been seen since they signed him!! Queen is Talented but is Slow and lacks quick enough reflexes and Athleticism to be consistent Shot Blocker. This teams lack of respect for size is a real problem!! They continue to prioritize size at other positions except for PF AND C!! Karlo is a Superstar PF with his Athleticism to play above the rim and Shoot the 3!! Yves Missi should be coming off the Bench as the Back up C, if they could Draft a 7ft plus Center in the Draft. Missi is very talented and it would be dumb to trade him.We must face facts Zion is not the Answer at PF and playing 2 small Guards at the same time is a liability!! For whatever reason the staff does not seem to know how utilize the strengths of every player and protect them where their weak!!

  2. So why is it, when Z gets 30+, it’s just scoring a bunch in a loss (while Trey did nothing btw)
    But when Trey does it you go off on how amazing he is and Zion gets blamed for the L?
    We’ve all got our favourites I guess. Trey rarely cops much criticism on this pod

  3. Poole and Zion need to go they play like role players and eating up half the salary

  4. The Pelicans drafted a 6'4 guard and a 6'10 guy that plays like a guard. No defense. My poor team.
