Pelicans Hire Stan Van Gundy

[Paper Boi]

He's proven that he can lose a locker room ... chase off a star player and deliver total incompetence when it comes to personnel decision... you're right

he's not making personnel decisions

as for the other two, yeah, that's why i said he's not a long term answer. the team as it stands needs to develop though, it's not a "win now" move.

 

[FunkDoc1112]

Great hire. Just keep him away from the front office.

 

[FunkDoc1112]

I feel like his brother uses the TV gig as leverage for coach openings that he then uses as leverage for the TV gig

Yeah, tbh JVG seemed completely burned out from coaching. Dealing with the Knicks' bullshyt towards the end and then all the injuries and disappointment with Houston. Announcing gig is easy work.

this fat fakkit drafted luke kennard over donovan mitchel. fukk svg

He was the president in Detroit and didn't "develop" shyt in 4 years ... stop it

 

[Joe Sixpack]

dont understand why JVG doesnt get another chance

Because he doesn’t want to coach anymore

 

[Flex Luger]

Because he doesn’t want to coach anymore

shyt he keeps taking interviews with teams every year lol

 

[Joe Sixpack]

shyt he keeps taking interviews with teams every year lol

He does and it never goes past that

 

[trick]

Retread washed white coach with his 3rd opportunity and never has even won a chip ... meanwhile dude like Ime Udoka still cant get his break

I feel like Udoka has been a finalist for so many jobs: Toronto, New York, Charlotte, Detroit...you telling he wouldn't do a better job than David fukkin Fizdale?

 

[Captain Crunch]

LMAO... shyt like this is why Pelicans are gonna stay mediocre. Get wow by mediocrity.

Coaching is overrated, both Vogel and Ty Lue have rings. As long as Zion is that dude, all of the Pelicans will be straight.

 

[feelosofer]

I feel like the Pels should have hired Kenny Atkinson, but SVG is a good developmental coach and will at least coach the young team up.

cause jeff sucks, he was horrible in houston getting 1st round exits with talented roster. There is a reason he not getting another head coaching job.
