Darren Erman has already been working hard at the Pels facility for awhile now

He wasn’t even officially introduced as New Orleans associate head coach until June 22, but Darren Erman has already become a familiar face this month around the Pelicans’ practice facility in Metairie. Although the 2015-16 season is months away and head coach Alvin Gentry was busy in California and Ohio coaching in the NBA Finals, Erman has gotten right to work. He’s a daily fixture in his office and a regular at the Saints/Pelicans on-campus cafeteria, stopping by briefly to grab lunch, before heading back to break down more game tape.
“If you want to find him, all you have to do is come and look in this building right here,” Gentry said of Erman during his introductory press conference, at the practice facility. “He’ll be here 23 out of 24 hours. Tremendous guy, great worker. He’s going to be great for our defense.”

Is it October yet?

Fyi: the article focuses almost entirely on what he's doing to fix the D. Great article.

“I think this team has a lot of potential to do good things,” Erman said. “You have guys who are versatile and play pretty hard. Watching them on film, Dante (Cunningham) brings it, Quincy (Pondexter) brings it, Anthony (Davis), Omer (Asik). Jrue (Holiday is) really good, Tyreke (Evans), Eric (Gordon). All of these guys have shown ability.”
More evidence that Tyreke is at least in the short term plans.

So basically Ryno (and maybe Cole) is the only guy that he didn't mention as showing promise on defense

Didn't mention Jimmy Smith's boy ajinca either.
Posted on 6/23/15 at 8:00 pm to LosLobos111
Did you guys want him to mention 15 guys in a interview?
Posted on 6/23/15 at 8:04 pm to Fun Bunch
He's supposed to be very detail oriented so I'm pretty sure we're trading Ryno and not resigning Ajinca.

Precisely, Erman does not simply overlook something like that
Posted on 6/23/15 at 8:20 pm to TigerinATL
This team is going to be be basically the same for this season, and that's fine. Much improved coaching makes this squad, if healthy, a 50+ win team. Pets have a solid roster.

Random question, but did this start from PelsTalk?

Sort of. More like Ghazi on the msb if I remember. But with the Mavs.
Posted on 6/23/15 at 8:30 pm to CocoLoco
MSB. Ghazi is a crazy Mavs fan that would talk about the Mavs like that and it caught on like sons did. Only you really are supposed to add extra vowels for emphasis.

Ghazi was occasionally entertaining but predominantly obnoxious.
But, back to the subject . . . whatever the frick that may be . . . I keep saying that the Pelicans will win 50 or more games this coming season. The only thing that de-rails that prediction is more shitty luck with injury.

I'll second your prediction.

I brought it to reddit. True story.
