I don't understand why so many people think Monty isn't going to be fired after this season.

In his first year, and it is now VERY EVIDENT, we won 46 games thanks to CP3. Last year and this year are nothing more than the same thing with new players.

He isn't make anyone better and some of his decisions are still questionable. (AD) We don't have much leadership on this team and bringing in a veteran coach just might do the trick. Especially after we pick up a big name FA next season. This team is oozing with upside and any veteran coach would have to be crazy not to want to try us out.

Who else thinks Monty is gone in the offseason and why? Who thinks he stays?

Ask yourself how many games would Greg Popovich win with this team? With the unfortunate injuries? With our star player playing half the time?

Ask yourself how many games would Jerry Sloan win with this team? With the unfortunate injuries? With our star player playing half the time?

Win lots of games: "It's only because of CP3!"

Lose lots of games: "It's only because of Monty!"

Of course this isn't because we're one of the youngest teams in the league, its because of the coach

This is exactly why its stupid to fire Monty

The Hornets suck. Flies wouldn't lay eggs on this pile of shite. Be lucky to have Monty.

In retrospect, lots of online coaching experts look like idiots for criticizing guys' abilities when they're coaching bad teams.

Think Orlando kind of regrets that Doc Rivers decision?
Shocker that he couldn't turn a team starting Tyronn Lue, Juwon Howard, and Andrew Declerq into champs.

Internet hero, Bill Simmons cried for years to get Rivers fired in Boston, to the point that Ainge almost did it.
For some reason Doc couldn't turn a team starting Ricky Davis and Raef Lafrentz into winners.

They bring in actual talent and Rivers was able show his true abilities. Amazing what KG and Ray Allen can do for you. Now he's universally accepted as one of the 2 or 3 best coaches in the league.

Monty had one good team and we got to the playoffs. When the Pelicans actually have a roster good enough to win, guys like Lance Thomas and Xavier Henry will be distant memories. When Monty's losing games with GOOD teams, then get back to me with the fire him stuff.

Until then, the nonsense and hyperbole people are spewing about what they think they know about Monty as a coach is just ignorant noise.
