No Way This Guy is Running an NBA team

"No way This Guy is Running an NBA team"

Another basketball content creator made it clear that their respect was for Dumars, but expressed sympathy for the fanbase. "I adore Joe Dumars the player with all my heart. But gotta feel for Pelicans fans having him and Weaver as their leaders."

As much as he may be right, I would put next to no stock in anything a "basketball content creator" says.

Until they actually frick something up this is all just bullshite spewed by people who are still crying about the past.
Adding Bey, Mathurin, Queen, and Fears along with Mosley/ Shammgod are just so terrible as whole. People should feel just so terrible for us.
Cry me a fricking river.
If we see the same old Pels losing close games, Z not playing, bad shots and defense then alright. Until then these people need to just stfu and talk about the actual healthy talent on the roster.

Are you going to give some hypothetical where we traded away 18 y/o Lebron for Queen? Or that we missed out on Wemby with the 2nd traded with Hawk? All bullshite and based on a hypothetical worst case scenario.
I think you are confusing preferences and opinions with the phrase "actually frick something up".
Queen being a bust, trading away future picks for a shitty player, giving Z $60mil a year right now, etch. Those are actually fricking something up.
Convincing yourself we missed out on hypothetical generational talents no matter what decisions were made is a personal mental issue and not something that can be discussed or argued.
Someone argued that if Queen becomes the best player in NBA and wins us championships that we still "lost the trade" due to positional value given up. Can't make this shite up if i tried.

Until they actually frick something up
Trading CJ for Jordan Poole was a colossal frick up.
So was the Queen trade. You can argue you think Queen will be good, the value we gave up for that trade was another colossal frick up, considering we want on to win 26 games in one of the best draft classes in a loooooong time. And we weren't even trying to tank since we didn't have the pick, which lessened our odds of getting a higher pick in a loaded draft.
Not dropping Zion when we had the chance, easily could be argued as nother frick up.
Winning 26 games last season then adding only Mathurin...that's a frick up.

Dumars' entire tenure has been nothing but frick up after frick up

The Saints were 1-15 in 1980, go wear a paper bag for the rest of your life.
Last season. last season. Last season. Its not last season, Its this season.
Did we frick up swapping out Hawk for Mathurin? Hiring Mosley/ Shammgod? Having our players the happiest they've ever been to be here? We are actually building a real culture and not some fabricated bullshite from the Griffin era.
Yeah i get it we attached a 2nd with Hawk. The way we did it was stupid. If we traded Hawk and 2 2nds for Mathurin during last season it would have been applauded.
How about being happy we hit on 2 lottery picks in the same year when we are essentially 1/7 the past 13 years?
Nerlens Noel #6
Buddy Hield #6
Zion #1
Jaxson Hayes #8
Kira Lewis #13
Dyson #8
Jordan Hawkins #14
We could have drafted a Hawk/ Hayes #7 and not even gotten trip dub Queen but yeah Dumars/ Weaver are doing just terrible.

Anyone who excuses anything about Dumars' "answer" or anyone who is involved in his continued employment is stealing from the citizens of Louisiana.

quote:Not sure anyone should refer to Weaver as a "leader." He had to be the most arrogant introvert that is an insult to the fans of the Pelicans. I cannot believe Gayle is OK with how he basically collects a check and hides from the media and the fans. I actually wonder if he even spends much time in New Orleans or if he is just living up in the DMV area.

You want to talk about reaching for something. Oh my God, thr players actually said they were happy before the season started; has something like this ever been said before??? This is next level sunshine pumping.

Shamit was being a bitch on purpose. He kept saying “front office” without clarifying he meant “medical staff and analytics”
He’s smart enough to ask it in a way that didn’t fix the communication issue but he could later frame as “Dumars is dumb” and have plausible deniability.
I’m no fan of Dumars but I know exactly what that weasel Shamit was doing. Saw an opportunity and pounced. If someone asks for clarification on your question and you repeat the same exact words back to them, that makes YOU the retard

I don't even care what Dumars has to say about his new staff or most of anything he has to say.
They are... by most if not all accounts good to great hires. They had a lot of changes this offseason from the front office to the coaching and training staff. I find it funny people are getting up in arms about him being confused about the question. But I already knew people would latch onto whatever he said.

I said this last year, Dumars has put the franchise back at least a decade. It's bad but it's only going to get worse under his management
