As much about Gentry I don’t like, he does know his shite. Most of his post game press conferences offer up at least two to three interesting tidbits, observations, and interesting statistics around the league(like knowing off hand that even X number of good teams this season have often found themselves down by 20-30 points and come back to win. To which he listed off two or three examples and their context. Not as an excuse, just to say he imposed on the team needed to keep its head on its shoulders because the game is long and we can win them.)

But going from knowing his shite to getting that shite strategized and executed properly and consistently is the problem.

Also frick Asik coming back.

From being retired due to medical issues?

From being traded?

Please tell me there is more than just him coming back to playing with the Pelicans

If Asik plays before Ajinca, I will be mother fricking angry. I wish they would just get rid of Asik. He's extremely useless.

Couple of weeks ago some people were told that he wont retire medically.
Now he is almost ready to go.

If we are going to trade him anyway - it is better that he can at least play and is healthy. Small difference but still difference...

I hope Gentry "intends to" get him on the court like Charles Barkley "intends to" lay off sweets this holiday season

Hope he comes back and plays well enough to be included in a trade.

I obviously hope the same thing, but Im going to keep my expectations really low. Like he comes back and plays 5 minutes a game, averaging 2 dropped passes, a missed dunk, and an accidental tap-in for the opposing team

Hands of stone. Rondo would get pissed at the dropped or fumbled balls. Rondo or Boogie might choke him at some point.

Did Gentry say that on the pregame show?
