Zion Williamson and the New Orleans Pelicans keep winning after an OT victory over the Phoenix Suns and Chris Paul. Jake Madison explains why this win was so important to the Pels, how Zion Williamson needs to be in the MVP conversation, and why guys like Larry Nance Jr and Naji Marshall are so important to the team.

How are you feeling after the Pelicans got their 7th straight win?
Zion has been amazing but seeing him knock those 3s down with confidence was so refreshing Cj played great Naji is improving n finding himself Nance mightve entered into the 6th man convo this team is scary good
I’m not really mad at CP3 for leaving when he did. The ownership was in flux which made the future murky. Dat man has owned this team ever since he left. He been treating the SKC like his house. Everybody giving him the business cause he falling short finally. Bless dat man for what he did for the franchise, but BOO DAT MAN as long as he plays against us!
I need that shirt Jake
What happened toJaxson Hayes
Thank you for doing your show after this awesome win Jake!
I think Dyson might push Herb for his starting spot …Herb gotta find his 3 ball and be consistent…Dyson gives u all that plus facilitates
Before we were saying… imagine this team with Zion added and now we are saying… imagine this team with BI.
Great show 👏🏽🔥
Say it louder for the folks in the back
Hey Jake Long time listener first time commenting.
I have been a listener on Spotify for years but don’t know how to comment on there, I’m an older listener. Sometimes watch YouTube on my smart TV but don’t know how to comment on it either. Love the show listen to you nightly keep it up. Go pels 🎉
Great old school reference lol
Is this a sign that BI is gunna be taking the back seat to Zion 👀
We have a very special team here…you can feel great things r going to happen. Thanks for all u do, Jake!
Louisiana pride man! New Orleans is a battle tested city and they kicking ass right now!
How good is this, fun being up top. BI hasn't even been playing.
Go Pels!
Had A family Christmas party we made them watch the game even those that don’t watch basketball were loving the game and talking about Zion
9-1 in the last ten games, seven game win streak? Sign me up!
Zion is bullying the league and they can’t stop him
if zion stays healthy. i cant see why we dont win it all.
Ascending Pels ⚜️
It seemed that Chris Paul didn’t want anything to do with Dyson and Naji as the game progressed. I think Paul’s 6 point total says volumes about the job they did on him. I wanted the Pels to draft Dyson. I’ve been shocked at how good of defender and facilitator he is. Great win tonight and the blender was rocking.
I was trying to tell people man. I really did my scouting of the rookies this year as I was super intrigued who we could get at 8. I was even more intrigued when I watched Dysons interviews and just how mature his attitude towards the game was. This kid is a sponge. He’s so willing to learn and get better, the Defensive discipline is unbelievable for a 19 year old and he truly understands .5 passing to a tee. He’s selfless, he doesn’t need or want to hold on to the ball, he just wants to find his team an advantage. That mentality is so invaluable when pairing with guys like Zion and Ingram. If he keeps this up I think you need to look at starting him. Kid just doesn’t make many mistakes out there, that’s what you need alongside the firepower we have.
Chips on the way 😋
Can something be done about the the elbows/dirty play by Chris Paul? Has the league taken action against a player for this kind of thing?
That 2nd Suns game was a right biter, but showed the Pels were clutch when it counts, something they didn't have in the past… and I loved the reverse call on that kick out 3 from CP3 too! 🏀🇬🇧
This team is so fun to watch, the high basketball IQ and the unselfish play is what separates this team along with the defense and Z being an absolute game changer, so cool to watch this team go from 1-12 last year to a top flight contender this year
This team man🥺
We need to try Willy more when JV is playing that passively. He came in and immediately got Ayton off Zion. I believe he'll take the Ayton matchup more personally or will be more willing to go at Saric or whoever is put on him.
Thanks Jake. Love listening to you!
