Honestly, that's why Westbrook and George have my respect

They're never gonna win, but they didn't go ring chase or to the big market to be someone else's bitch.

They stuck to the small team when the opportunity presented.

He literally accomplished nothing here. Multiple losing mediocre seasons and one playoff series victory in 7 years. Dude was given a healthy Jrue Holiday and healthy Demarcus Cousins one year and still missed the playoffs. Stop worshiping him like he’s some god who brought tons of success to NOLA. He’s a soft loser who bailed on the team first chance he got.

He gave up plain and simple. Yeah the front office has been subpar and Gentry is Gentry but the dude has never said anything to voice his frustration. I would have rather him call out the owners and the coaches in public and then ask for a trade if nothing changed. He didn’t. Hell he can’t even speak up for himself in regards to all of this mess. Then the report is he wants to go to a team where he has a chance to win a championship but is now trying to dictate his way to the Lakers? Bitch Please

The writing was on the wall when he purchased a house in Cali and went to klutch.

Wouldn't blame him if his contract ran its course, that would be him giving the franchise time to build around him and failing knowing how much time they had with him. Demanding a trade is a bitch move. Dictating where he wants to go is a bitch move. Trying to team with bron bron after he came out and said it would be a dream to team with AD and having a business lunch together the same week is slimy as hell. I dont blame AD for being mad at the incompetent withing the pels organization but I blame him for the way his camp is handling it.

Exactly and then has the nerve to be on the bench and trying to act engaged with the team. Jrue needs to back hand that baby back bitch

If he lets his contract expire, then leaves, the pelicans get NOTHING. It would leave the franchise in a worse situation and then everyone would really “hate” AD

I dont blame AD and nor did I blame CP3. When youre given the opportunity to have someone of their caliper on your roster, you should be improving each year after the initial build phase. We let them down and have to deal with it. I think were better off in the long run if we can fix the upper management shite and do this right. meaning you build off of Jrue and whoever you get in the AD trade and not by going the complete tanking route. If it were me, Id go after Tatum and Horford and then keep niko and HILL. Then at the deadline next season, dump Hill and a future protected pick to grab a good player whos on a losing team. Also, trade Randle immediately for someone who actually cares about team defense
