Sources say Pelicans conducting second interview with Alvin Gentry in New Orleans, story coming shortly
This 60 year old retread is going to end up falling into coaching Anthony Davis

Thanks Steve Nash, Chris Paul and Steph Curry!

People should be knocking down Monty's door. He coached AD.

I mean people can hate it but I think hes a good fit. Theres no question whos the better coach out of JVG and Gentry but he will have us playing a motion offense and and fast paced.

It was already known he was getting a 2nd interview. I think I remember seeing after the playoffs, but I guess this break will do. And IIRC the 2nd interview mention came out before all the JVG stuff. Basically he made the short list after the first interview. Hopefully we'll here about a JVG 2nd interview soon.

He's going to Chicago now, but looks like Hoiberg was up for grabs. Wonder if we talked to him. But whatever.

60 is the new 40, I guess...

An Alvin Gentry hire would merely be "ok," but it certainly wouldn't be anywhere close to a home run. With a player like Anthony Davis on this team, the front office should no longer be settling for "ok." I have a very hard time believing that he is the absolute best coach that they could possibly bring down here.

If this is the guy that Dell hires for Davis, he should be fired.

I've had a sneaking suspicion Gentry would be the man. He's the easy choice.

No matter who the coach is, if the Pels don't end the season strong and make a statement in the playoffs, even if it is just the first round, then AD is gone. Book it Dano!
