The Ball may be gone, but the grass won't be Greener on the other side: NOLA Pelicans 2021-22 Thread

I another thing that seems super suspect is our player development. Which maybe attributed to so much coaching changes.

Griffin puts too much faith on his draftees. When instead he should be trying to build a deep team since this team suffers from injuries. One of the 4 main players get hurt and team falls apart, this been the case last 3 years

Yeah it was hysterical how our broadcast crew (and granted they are paid to put lipstick on the pig) was talking bout how losing Josh Hart was a big reason we were losing by 30. If losing Josh Hart removes all your team's competitiveness, that's an organizational problem.

did ya'll lose a 2nd round pick in the lonzo tampering case? I'm hearing conflicting reports.

I haven't heard we did

Wouldn't matter. We sell them picks with an already NBA worst bench.


Be ironic, because Griff probably the one to file the tampering complaint.

Right. nikkas have no depth despite the haul they got from the AD trade, which rounded up a starting lineup for New Orleans along with the #1 overall pick.

Over 2 years later and they have lil to show for after the 6th, maybe 7th man on the roster. Young dudes that showed promise before are regressing.

Flipping the coaching staff year after year, even the top talents on the team regressed in areas they excelled in. Like Zo & Ingram before arriving in NO used to be + defenders, Zo is back to being such after leaving

2002 FA should be all about getting a bench.
Dump Hayes.

Ricky Rubio and Patty Mills
Patrick Beverly
Otto Porter

Thaddeus Young stuck in SA complaining about no playing time, idk why he didn't go after him knowing Zion would miss time. Instead he got the WOAT Satoransky

Just waiting for Griff to get canned.

Herb had a career-high 19 points on 8-11 shooting, including 2-2 from 3. He also had seven rebounds, three assists, one steal and two blocks. He’s already known as a top flight defender and continues to shadow whoever he’s on. It’s always fun to watch a guy like this manufacture 19 points without a single play run for him, I’m sure. This is, dare I say, Shawn Marion-esque?

Geaux Herb ... er, Pels!

Time to change the thread title to something like; To Calm Our Nerves We Need The Herbs GNC don't Carry

Herb is the truth

 

[I AM WE ARE]

This team should be all about development the rest of the season, find out who is gone be around Zion next season and where we need to draft

 

[qashif]

Willie needs to dead Ingram 1v1 plays late in the 4th, and at least run PnRs damn it

Herb has been a hidden gem of the draft

How many years we gonna say this? This fat nikka will never pay 75% of the games. We need to worry about who gonna be our top player for a quarter of the season

 

[NoHalfWay]

BI & Big V need more help

If Zion was available their front court would give teams hella problems
