In this episode of The NBA Podcast, Morten Jensen (@msjnba) and Bryan Toporek (@btoporek) discuss recent criticism about Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic not wanting to dominate enough and delve into what's gone wrong for the New Orleans Pelicans.

Why isn't Embiid having as much fun this year as he has in years past (2:08)? Was Thursday's performance against Boston a sign of things to come (12:35)? Why has Jokic been less engaged this season (28:20)? How worried should Pelicans fans be about their slow start to the year (45:20)? Which New York Knicks head coaching candidate would be the most hilarious (59:07)?
