Monty's coaching
Posted on 1/29/13 at 11:57 pm

The young team and rebuilding can not always be the excuse. Monty's coaching is terrible. He clears the bench in the third and early fourth then leaves rivers in and Davis never touches the floor in the 4th. He is also a terrible offense coach, half the time I have no clue what he is trying to accomplish on that end.
Thoughts?

The only way these lineups make sense if in the back of his mind he's kind of trying to tank. Basically thinking
"ok we aren't going to make any serious noise this season. Lets play just well enough to make sure the starters plus Ryno realize we can be competitive, but I don't want to run them into the ground just to maybe come close to the 8th seed. So I'll play our crappy bench way more than is necessary, and we'll get a top 5 draft pick, sign 3 real players in the offseason, and go full throttle next year."
If that isn't his thought process then he's a moron and we need a new coach
This was posted in the in-game thread and I really don't see how any person who watches the games can disagree. So Monty is either a moron or a loser. Whichever it is, I don't want him coaching the Pelicans.

He's overrated. He's not terrible, but he's unquestionably overrated.
Bad rotations, predictable offensive schemes, and can't find a way to get his best player in spots where he can flourish.

but ..... but!!! he was really hands on during that one NBATV special during their practice! plus its really cool to post this 
when talking about him! it doesn't really matter that he's never proven anything in the NBA!
no really. I agree with you 100%. the guy has consistently made bad decisions in clutch time. last season he gave Jarret Jack the green light and allowed him to single handily lose at least 10 games for us.

Winning isn't all that he is balancing. This team frankly needs more firepower on offense anyway so I support the almost win but tank.
Davis and Gordon are crazy fragile and or out of game shape. Monty said Gordon is still learning the defense and needs to be more assertive on offense.
Monty wants a deep bench in the future and for some reason is putting that into practice now with bad players (which he has said a few of them won't be in the league next year)

I agree, Monty cannot coach. GM needs to start looking around soon.

Can't always be the excuse but it can be the actual explanation when it applies. About 25% of the cap is being spent on dead money. Two players getting minutes are one and done rookies. Most of the team that actually gets minutes have only played together this year (GV and Aminu played a good bit last year . . . the worst scores in the top 6 minute getters).
Davis is on minute limitations (clearly) after being injured earlier this season and there is a potential for aggravation of that. When he played significant minutes after his return (so late December), he played poorly. Now, he's playing better but in limited minutes.
So they are taking care with both injured stars. Sounds like a good coach and some good medical advice being followed.
Even if Monty is great or horrible, how could you tell with all that going on?
Trying to accomplish . . . hmmm . . . ball in hole?
