© Nelson Chenault-USA TODAY Sports
After the Pelicans terrible bubble performance, the team has dismissed head Coach Alvin Gentry... His statement...
quote:

“I’m grateful for and appreciative of Alvin’s commitment to the organization and, most importantly, the local community,” said Griffin. “The City of New Orleans is richer because of his presence here. These types of moves are often about fit and timing, and we believe now is the right time to make this change and bring in a new voice.”

“I want to thank Alvin for his contributions to the Pelicans and the New Orleans community,” said Pelicans Owner Gayle Benson. “We believe that making a head coaching change is necessary at this time. I truly appreciate Alvin’s leadership, dedication and perseverance through some challenging circumstances over the past five seasons. He will always be a part of our Pelicans family, and we wish him and his family all the best in the future. Our intention moving forward is to find the right head coach that will guide this Pelicans team to compete for championships. That is what our fans deserve.”

Who do you see or want filling the position?

“ Chuck's dead and has been for 11 years now” Still better than Gentry.

Shimany thought this oddball season might save him. Glad we didn’t waste another year continuing to find out he is in fact not.
