hadnt read anything on the recent player/coach interviews they did recently so I thought I'd give a brief overview. A good listen if you have the time, just go towards the end of the podcasts so you can skip the saints talk

Luke Babbit
Excited to Bombs away
His wife made him cut his hair
Wants to show he's a more complete player and attack better off his pump fakes

Dante Cunningham
Worked on corner 3 all offseason
Did a lot of yoga
Did some MMA training
Said everyone's been in town for weeks practicing and going really hard
Said coaches tell them they should take a break for a day or two and they all say no and keep workin
When asked what he thought of the other Western Conference teams moves this offseason he said "it doesn't matter, they're gonna have to keep up with us"

Darren Erman
Talks about how he got into NBA
Said he actually started out as an offensive coach until he got to Boston and made friends with thibs and really learned Defense from him.
Said that defense is always evolving, listed the 07-08 celtics as an example, said they were a show defense instead of ICE but now most teams are ICE. Talks about how the change in defensive philosophy will really help Asik and Ajinca
Said he likes the physicality of our guards and mentioned tyreke especially (I'm hoping he works with him like he did Thompson on his D)

I have also been listening to the Alvin Gentry interview segments with Joel Meyers and really enjoy hearing both of them talk. Gentry has a personality that we have not seen since the team has been in New Orleans and a complete 180 from what Monty was. It is fun hearing what he has to say and the confidence he has for this team.

If Dante can hit the 3 at the same percentage as his long to he would be a great starter.

Thanks for the breakdown, and just an FYI for the board, a great way to get this kind of media all in one place is the Pelicans mobile app. The last 10+ things listed on the main page are nothing but B&B reports, the Gentry interview with a couple of Jen Hale player previews sprinkled in between.
