He won 34 games primarily with a roster and rotation of Tyreke Evans, Anthony Davis, Brian Roberts, Ajinca, Withey, Anthony Morrow, Austin Rivers, and a little of Eric Gordon and Darius Miller. And some of those names missed multiple games. Jrue, Smith and Anderson played only at the beginning of the season before this team could even gel. So I won't and can't count that. And yea taking time to gel matters, just look at Brooklyn. Some idiots thought they wouldn't even make the playoffs

So my point here is that Monty knows what he is doing and firing him would be stupid. Fire him for what? So we can hire another coach to implement his own system and have our young players start over? Cmon. Some, well actually all of you wanted him fired before the all star break. How stupid is that? We would have sucked even more and again, our players would have to learn another system at the midpoint of the season. That's incredibly stupid.

Monty will make this team a winner and wallowint and I will be here to say we told you so. /EndRant

I don't think he is terrible but Monty's had his chances. WE HAVE FINISHED LAST IN OUR DIVISION THE PAST 3 YEARS. I don't think he is a great developer of talent. Certain coaches maximize their player's potential (Pop, Thibodeaux, Doc) and he's not one of them. Player's leave here and have bigger impacts for their new teams than they did when they were here (Ariza, Thorton, Collison, Belinelli, Lopez). I wouldn't fire him yet, but he gets one more year in my opinion.

I think the real problem in NOLA is DELL DEMPS!

Most of those guys you listed had arguably their best seasons in the league under Monty. Two of them were rookies at the time.

It's not like we played in a good division or anything.

Or we were rebuilding

Ariza was in a contract year and is looking for a good pay-day. Hardly shocking he played well.

There's a ton of "thortons" in this league.

Collison has not done any better anywhere else.

Belly is benefitting from playing in a system that tailors to his strengths(and 3 HOFers)

Lopez is average

I wouldn't be upset over any of them tbh.

And not the coach that often times couldn't deploy a reasonable rotation and shafted tyreke for the first 3/4ths of the season?

Some of your blame is misplaced

His complete misuse of Evans for the first 3/4 of the season is a good enough reason for him to be fired

Anthony Davis will make this team a winner, not Monty. If Monty is here long term, it means he's figured out how to get out of the way. The biggest complaint against Monty has always been his rotations, hopefully Demps can help save Monty from himself with who he does and doesn't sign.


Monty's rotations ultimately were the death of him IMO though it did improve by the end of the year. He would routinely put horrendous lineups on the floor instead of spreading out the rest for his studs. For instance, early in the season with Reke, EG, and Jrue healthy, he would put a a group out there with only 1 or none of these 3 for extended stretches. It would've been one thing if Cole would've been on the roster then but instead we would see AR and Jimmer/10 day contract guy for extended stretches.
