I'm a hardcore pels fan

And every year I'm losing more and more interest in this team to the point that I barely care if I watch the games. It's one thing to have lost all the casual fans but how can the team not demand change when it is obvious the dedicated fan can give less of a frick and season ticket sales keep dropping?

I've been watching them since they came over with B Diddy and Mashburn, and that was when you had to go searching on Justin tv or atdhe.net and the multitude of other streams to watch them since i didn't have cox. The one year i had Cox was the year CP3 dunked on Dwight Howard, and i'm glad I got to watch that on my 20" tube tv.
I watched very little of them last year. Maybe 15 games all year at best. I'm watching more this year, but it's really only to see what AD and Buddy do, but i will start losing interest again if nothing changes. Also to see what stupid thing our coaching staff will do down the stretch of a game.
It's sad but the only thing we look forward to now is if AD can score 30+, Buddy can have a good game, trades, and the summer draft/FA. Winning a basketball game isn't why most harcore fans are paying attention to the Pels right now, and it hasn't been that way for over a year now.

Exactly. AD is always fun to watch, and even if AD were out I'd still watch for Buddy. And I'm always hoping to see Cheick get some minutes. I've never been to a Pels game that I didn't enjoy - even the OT heartbreakers we've lost this season. I let my season tickets this year because my son is too busy with school right now, but hope to buy some again next year. One decent free agent at small forward or center and one more lottery pick and we're a playoff team again.

6ers game sucked the soul out of me. When there's a glimmer of hope again I'll watch.

Last night, I turned off the game at half time to watch an episode of Jessica Jones. That show is mediocre, but this franchise has turnt.

I've been numb to this team for a few years now.

I cannot stop watching them.

I agree. I used to watch every game during the CP3 era. Even when he was hurt the Thornton/Collison team was fun to watch. I moved out of state last year but I don't find myself wishing I could watch most games.

It's not the losing that bothers me. The team is getting shite on... fine. It's the fact that the organization has no direction. We are regressing and I have no faith in the front office to build anything.

This is what happens when the owner is comatose to everything around him. Should have kept Rita instead of Gayle

Whoa whoa whoa. Jessica Jones isn't mediocre at all. Maybe the best villain in Marvel cinematic history.

When your big name flashy free agent signing is Solomon Hill, the season kinda sucks before it even starts. I end up tuning in to see the comedy hour between Ajinca ripping boards away from Jones out of bounds or watching Asik fumble a wide open pass under the basket.

I like the signings we made. The Pelicans aren't going to get a star in free agency, but they can get professional players like they did. The way this team will have success is through the draft and surrounding them with veteran professional players

Yeah it sucks but I just try to enjoy watching the individual play of guys like Davis and Buddy. I will still watch virtually every game even if they go O-fer the rest of the rest of the way.
My biggest disappointment has been on the defensive side of the ball. You can't let a team like Houston go scorched earth against you from the 3 point line. I mean plant 4 guys on the perimeter and make them go inside. Just a disappointing game all around.

I'm honestly starting to think this franchise doesn't care enough. If they did changes to front office would have been made, and a tolerance for mediocre and poor performance would never been accepted.
Like honestly why would anyone care about this team if they are showing with their actions that they don't care "that much"?

1) Fire Gentry/Demps
2) Promote Danny Ferry and hire Calipairi
3) Draft Monk
4) Make The Pels Great Again

How can we be excited about this team when the organization doesn't care?
Posted on 12/18/16 at 6:56 pm to 504ByrdGang
Hmmmm I still enjoy watching games and I'm happy when they win. call me crazy, I guess.
