No defense. Zion is fat. Lonzo has regressed in the bubble. The only guy really worth a frick is BI. Gentry needs to be fired. Anyone that actually believes the pelicans have a chance at winning shite is a simp. NBA fricking sucks. All of this is facts anyone who disagrees fight me.

If Gentry isn't fired after this, my respect for Griffin will 110% be gone.

Melli and Hart have also played well, but the starters need to do their job for that to make any difference.

Starters get run out of the gym by a second tier Spurs team full of role players outside of Derozan.

Fire Gentry. Soon as the last game final buzzer sounds.
This is ridiculous. Playing basically in an elimination game and they look like they give two f*%@$. Unacceptable.
It was set on a platter to make the playoffs. The defense has been non-existent the whole bubble.
Gentry is too lax and doesnt demand a damn thing from the players.
His post interview in a loss are packed with the same regurgitated excuses. Tired of it. Just want him gone.

It’s crazy how good our roster is. A respectable coach can do wonders for this team. FIRE GENTRY! We have 0 energy

This is a serious question. Did the pelicans front office actually wanted to make the playoffs? Seems like they treated Zion like a bubble wrapped baby and the team has played flat in the bubble.

I think you're just looking at names and not the actual players.

I love this forum. Ball is 1 for 6. Holiday is 1 for 6. They are going up against borderline scrubs, White and Walker. White is lighting them up. But its on the coach. He should be scheming it better..

The problem is no matter an individual results, the team results are still the same.

Normally I'd agree, but he is actually playing great today IMO.

You're not going to win when your best players lose match ups all the time. Holiday should be feasting against these guys. He is a top 30 player supposedly. He can't just vanish and have off games. The team just isn't going to be good when your leader is MIA..

This team was clicking back before the season was postponed. We had everyone playing well. Lonzo was actually hitting his shots, team was reinvigorated when Zion returned and he got in decent shape.

Everything changed in the bubble. They just didn't seem to care. Played no defense, played with no effort or heart. Just turnover after turnover, guys standing around watching their teammates get trapped.

We were favored by Vegas in every game in the bubble, except for the Clippers game. That should tell you how badly we performed compared to the expectations everyone had for this team, based on our talent.

We need a new coaching staff to change the identity and culture of this team. Maybe we shouldn't play with this kinda pace with this young team. Leads to crazy amount of turnovers. We need a change. I hope Griffin and Langdon make the right decision with their hire.

Zion is not fat. BI is worth trading because he has 0 chemistry with Zion and he will get a max deal. Sorry I’m not fighting over a sports take

Not nearly a large enough sample size to say this imo. They had moments where they looked good together.

So you think the fire Gentry opinion is based off this one game?
