Are the Pelicans committed to "Borrego Ball?"

The New Orleans Pelicans are off to a 2-1 start, but since the injury to Dejounte Murray, the offense has sputtered. Scoring and shooting numbers have plummeted, and the team has reverted to its worst habits from a season ago, with heavy emphasis on iso scoring and not enough three-pointers. Are the Pelicans bought into playing the high-speed offense that Willie Green promised? Damian Adams joins the show to give his thoughts on what's worked and what hasn't for the Pels through three games.

Every episode is worth a listen. I love the round table talk format.
Good, but not enough

It’s the best Pelicans podcast. But episodes come once a month or less. That’s not nearly enough. Do it once a week and you’ll have something going.

Zion is by far a better player than Ingram. As far as whose team it is, Zion is the guy that if he reaches his potential will carry the team to the championship that’s not BI.
Love the show, but there’ve been some issues

To make a very long story short, I would love to give the show a full five stars, but feel like I’m being generous with four (at this particular time.) Avid, voracious Pels fan from AZ. I consume all the Pels related media I can daily. I drive a lot for work, and use Pels podcasts as my happy place when on the road. Because I drive a lot (and, admittedly, don’t have the best hearing having been a performing musician for 20+ years) and I need decent quality production to hear what is being said - and unfortunately this show has some less than stellar production. Often times, I can barely hear what one of the guys is saying. Other times, there are odd audio issues ex. One show was almost nothing but feedback with the host not realizing it was almost impossible to make out what they were saying. Huge fan of the content and the hosts, but I beg you guys for two things: More consistent shows, and better production.
