Why is he and EVP and not a POBO?

Because that is simply the name the Pelicans use.

It is the same title that Loomis had.

Dennis Lauscha is President of the Pelicans...which essentially is the ear of the owner...Griffin is right below that which is fine. The title is semantics anyway.

That's the rumor. A couple of names were thrown out there by Crewz but no one else has corroborated.

I'd expect some of these questions to be answered in his press conference tomorrow.

Gentry definitely ain’t going anywhere based on what Gayle said just now.

Gayle mentioned a few different times winning "next year" specifically, if we had any wonders about what type of "rebuild" they're looking for.

So this is sort of an upgrade from Dell’s presser.

Griffin is going to be so much fun to listen to. The guy is amazing at bringing his point across with great detail from his perspective. This is what a legitimate basketball leader looks and sounds like. We are in great hands.

Yep. His job right now is to make this franchise as appealing as it can possibly be to change the league wide perspective. This will help him land better execs, coaches, and players in the future. Very smart of him.

Griffin just basically confirmed that Gentry is staying.

Fine with me, as long as it was his decision.
