Yep, even though we're paying a ton for an unorthodox lineup of Evans, Holiday and Gordon, I really think they could do some damage. Maybe Monty will eventually get the message.


My biggest fear is getting lead to the playoffs next year and getting bounced in the first round. Under this scenario, it would essentially buy Monty at bare minimum one more season. How many seasons would it then take to get rid of him with repeated first round failures? I think that they would at least let him ride out the next 3 years of his contract. Cue George Karl Denver joke here from random Monty defender.

I am praying that our players understand that there are going to be things they need to figure out on their own. If Davis takes the reins a little more and some of the responsibility off Monty, that could mean the difference between being successful into June or not. God it's nice having AD.

Not to mention the most unorthodox of them all, Anthony Davis.

If Monty would show any desire to join the modern NBA, I have no problem keeping him on. That seems a bit of a reach at this point, but maybe fresh blood on the staff can push him forward

That's exactly what's going to happen. Monty will be here until a lack of postseason success gets him fired or not renewed. On the plus side, Monty did play a bit unorthodox when he had the Finishing Five healthy. His biggest flaw from a fan perspective is choosing vets over youth. With a healthy team that's not as much of an issue.
