Pelicans Fire Van Gundy

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

They need to clean house in that front office

Fail to make the playoffs again and that's exactly what's going to happen.

It's only so long you can throw others into the crossfire before all the attention comes back on you. Even his bullshyt excuse about Zion's injury showed that he's starting to feel the pressure of teams lack of success during his tenure.

Nah. Trajan Langdon will get hired in 5 minutes.

 

[Flex Luger]

Hiring dude in the first place never made sense.

 

[Nigerianwonder]

Gave BI a greenlight to chuck up bricks and benched Zion during crunch times and long periods of the 4th quarter when he is was the most efficient and reliable scorer. SVG needed to go.

 

[SubZeroDegrees]

We are a farm franchise. Lebron Puppet, David Griffin, must be feeling the heat, because SVG was an okay coach. Not great, but we have a more serious talent and roster construction problem. Which can be pinned on David. This was a scapegoat move for that snake oil salesman.

No, the players didn't fukk with SVG, especially BI.

 

[UpAndComing]

Wow

I thought he was very good involving Zion in the offense
He coached Dwight Howard in his prime
He coached Shaq in Miami

The majority of the coaches in the NBA are clueless on how to coach big men. They only see them as Lob threats and pick setters

This is tuff

 

[NO-BadAzz]

Good news. FOH

Shouldn't have been hired in the first place

 

[FunkDoc1112]

Should have never fired Monty williams

I still have no idea why the fukk they would fire a coach after their first year of breaking through the playoffs with AD. Were they supposed to make a conference finals run as a young 8-seed or what

 

[trick]

Terrible signing to begin with. I hope Zion doesn’t sign his rookie extension with that trash organization

Now these cacs can stop pumping like David Griffin like he was some genius. He was no genius, he had Lebron James and Kyrie Irving. Everyone with eyes could see that SVG was trash in Detroit, he couldn't develop any talent over there and he has zero idea that works in the league these days

 

[duckbutta]

Bud's coaching was so bad for the bucks last night that it go Van Gundy fired today

Griffin was watching that game last night thinking to himself "this the same type of dumbass shyt Van Gundy be doing. I got a team full of lottery picks and couldn't even get to the play in game . I'm going to have Zion on a rookie deal for 2 more years and won't even be able to make the playoffs before having to max him . Man let me go ahead and fire this mufukka right now.

Bud done made the spot hot for bad white coaches in the nba

 

[desjardins]

They should take a look at Brett Brown.
Won't get them to the finals but he can mold young players and establish some kind of system/culture. And he got better seasons under his belt than a lot of the retreads being mentioned in here

 

[HTXBreh]

Jason Kidd is the obvious pick.

 

[Consigliere]

Stan Van wasn’t the guy. And this team doesn’t have a championship window opening anytime soon. So they need to focus on keeping Zion around.

Move BI. Move on from Lonzo. Put together a real plan to be competitive in 3 years.

WOAT GM Dell Demps fired him to cover his trash ass. Asked every Pels fan, they wanted Monty to stay and Dell to GTF.

 

[Premeditated]

why are you guys saying that's wild? they had 2 all stars and still couldn't make the playoff. if you were following their season you won't be surprise.
and I like Van Gundy, but he should only coach vets
