This is an IHeart podcast.

It's almost a new year, so I'm going to turn over a new leave.

I've got some resolutions for a number of players and teams that I need to give out.

So let's start in New Orleans.

Where the Pelicans, they have a brief downturn.

Brandon Ingram's been out.

We know that.

And I don't know when he's coming back, but that's an issue.

But they are back to their winning ways.

Zion, the other night, had 43.

And people are calling him exactly what he is which is a football player

that plays basketball on a very talented team but i have a new year's resolution concerning zion

and i'm not i'm you guys got to help me stay stay steadfast to this because i don't know it's

going to be easy you know new year's resolutions are never really going to be easy they they take work they take dedication and this it's going to be easy. You know, New Year's resolutions are never really going to be easy.

They take work.

They take dedication.

And this one's going to take a lot of dedication and an accountability partner. And that is, that is, I am not going to talk about Zion's weight anymore. I'm not going to, I'm not going to make any more Zion fat jokes. I'm not going to say, oh, you know, Zion, where's your, where's your banyers? Oh, Zion, Zion's been eating a little extra creole. I'm not going to be like,

ooh, Zion, Zion had some steak last night. That's why he was a little, I'm not going to do any of that.

Do I regret saying he was out of shape last year?

No, I do not.

I am not going to regret that.

I am not going to apologize for that.
