This Gentry thing is complex to me. On one end you never wanna see a black coach lose the job but on the other he does questionable shyt makes you so frustrated and want to see him gone
The really shytty part. You can't just give him another big and expect him to change his philosophy to play him. So, you'll be wasting him on the bench playing 1 big for large stretches at a time.

Look here brother.
The Coli
The World, man it’s just been a crazy place.

But in 2020 and on we about uniting and building bridges. Nobody wants any smoke, I genuinely want the best for NO and want to see them thrive and be successful for years to come.

my brothers @NOSaintsFan02 & @portcityplaya can vouch for me!:salute:

Look man I have no beef with anyone new wants to be a Pelicans fan, it's the Zo/BI/Pelakers stans and everyone that's riding the Zion hypetrain that's I have a problem with. You shown that are a fan and I'm all for unity and shyt but let me ask you something say the three Laker kids were traded to a different team and AD waited to joined the Lakers with Rondo, Boogie and Jrue with Lebron, are Laker fans accepting calling them PeLakers?:sas1:

You genuine breh but but a lot of "PeLaker" fans wasn't posting in this thread when we were losing:martin:

LOL bro, it comes with having THE superstar of the NBA on your team. If Zion lives up to the hype, once LeBron is gone he will be THE face of the NBA. With that comes with hot takes from the world, bandwagoning fans, etc.

It's a trade-off I'm willing to take. That's why I keep saying Zion is the franchise. If dude lives up to the hype, the Pelicans franchise after he retires will be potentially revered as one of the best ones in the NBA. Our FO better not fukk this up.

I really hope this "BI vs Zion" narrative doesn't gain traction especially with some of you Pelicans fans. Ingram is naturally complimentary even to a fault and their games don't clash at all.

Keep hayes cause he's raw, trade jrue and Okafor and let's make a run

Yeah Hayes I like. What can the Pels get for Jrue? Feels like there aren't going to be too many sellers this trade deadline

The way I look at this team, this is the lineup the front office should work towards in the years to come

PG: Lonzo
SG; 3&D Wing
SF: BI
PF: Zion
C; Stretch 5

Give Zion and BI all the space they need

Looking forward to playing the Pels in the 1st round :myman:

They already started, look at the game thread :mjlol: it’s pathetic

Yeah I peeped that. That's why I hope it doesn't gain traction. It was actually the perfect set up last night, Zion did what he did and BI would come in to finish it off in the clutch (as he's done most of the season). He just had an off night...it happens :manny:

I've cooled off on BI lately. He seem to struggle in big moments/ games.
ummm until he gains more weight he won’t really be that elite 1st option. Good thing is we gonna pay him like one so it’s gonna work out, plus Zion impacts the game in so many ways and is wild unselfish. He will make bi life easier. This was a weird game for bi cause you can tell he was a lil more reserve cause he didn’t really wanna seem like he was trying to show Zion up, but Zion early was the same way, he didn’t wanna seem like he showing up the rest of them by taking a bunch of shots.

Is just a chemistry thing with them 2 and I think they gonna be dope together.

:mjlol::mjlol:At Reddikks reaction
that wasn’t from this game tho. Pretty sure it was from the clippers game where JJ got the last 2 shots. One he hit to bring us down one, and the other he missed to win the game. Funny clip tho for sure :russ:

Gentry has clearly lost this team Zion at the 5 :scust::gucci::what:

Clearly you double Aldridge get the ball out his hands we have the team speed to rotate
We need to play under control but red eyes liked that NBA jam style of play trade jrue for a healthy big And let's make a run next year we got enough picks to make it happen
nah Zion at the 5 sometimes gonna be super dope. He can definitely out rebound 90% of the leagues bigs cause his strength and jumping ability/motor, plus he’s way faster then any big in the league and when the court opens up imagine any center in the league trying to guard him top of the key with 4 shooters on the court, or BI driving with Zion at the 5 with the center hanging out at the 3 point line.

not that he should start there at all, but similar to draymond cause I expect his defense and rebounding to be close to dray and his passing is gonna be on par also.

shyts gonna be fun to see man.

My biggest issue with Alvin is rotations man :snoop: how as a long term bet coach that you still making the mistake to take lonzo, jrue and BI off the court all at the same time. You stagger you’re players minutes where it’s always a play maker on the court.

the dead Zone lineups with naw, Moore, reddikk, melli and Haynes is so fukking frustrating man

And at this point I do think it’s time to move from jrue unfortunately. Jj will work better in a line with lonzo, Zion, bi and favors

:yeshrug: I think a jrue for buddy trade with be dope. Adds another elite shooter at the 2, who decent at defense to help stretch the floor.

If anybody gonna go iso consistently I rather it be BI or Zion

Actually.... I was.... but admittedly did dial back due to football season.... as in the heat of that going on. I just can’t take say game 13 of a 82 game season seriously:mjlol:


But I always said as that season comes to an end or my team season ends, I would start to focus more on BBall. Now luckily for me, my team still has one more game left:mjgrin:


So I ain’t fully there yet, but soon:lolbron:


As far as your last point, I respectfully can’t speak on that due to statute of limitations :mjgrin:

But I would hope there would always be love somewhere.

oh and for the record it’s PeLakers:wow:

We all we got!!:damn:

On a separate more personal note.

NO brehs, y’all took my OG Hornets
Y’all took my Lil G CP3 who record said always wanted to be a Hornet but then they left NC and as the saying goes “Not like this”:damn:


And then y’all took the new face of the league and my new Kobe history/legacy killer in Zion.

I’m owed and deserve this :to:


Niccas I had to watch Bobcat games:scust:
