If you don't watch any of the presser just watch the end handshake between Willie and Zion

Contrast that relationship with van gundy. That was almost a franchise killer

Willie Green saved this franchise

CJ McCollum saved the franchise and legitimized the existence of everyone in the organization

CJ doesn’t choose to come here if we have Van Grumpy, Willie was a huge part in CJ choosing us

While I agree about him legitimatizing the organization in a way (having the head of the players union want to come play for you in a big deal), I would say Willie and BI have done more to "save" the franchise.
Willie and BI changed the culture and narrative, CJ added more coals to the train to make it run faster.

Willie + CJ = Zion 5 year

What stood out to me is how genuinely happy Zion was. Getting paid had a lot to do with it, but still, you could tell he was in a Best Birthday Ever mood.

When Coach talked about varying the offense and who's bringing the ball up and mentioned some times Herb would bring it up to create different looks...

Just like his commentary on just about any other subject

This still doesn't excuse the fact that the Pelicans have the worst PBP radio team in the NBA

10x better than any recent hire WWL has made with their trash in-house talent

This could shape up to be a Sean Peyton type hire. Winning seasons for 10+ years

Not to diminish either but I reckon we’d be in the same middling mess without CJM. I don’t blame them they just needed help
Neither could corral the Zion situation, which was spiraling out of control at the time, both on and off the court. The biggest issue plaguing the organization
Both needed CJM to reach their final form. BI did not have to pretend to be the kind of leader he wasn’t and could just do his thing, and Willie finally had a sound presence to help get everyone to buy in. Both were different guys for the better post CJM trade
Just how I see it. Hard to deny everything felt very different after the trade

Willie is genuine so I think this will carry him very far in his coaching career
