quote:2nd most? Not sure about that
Dude the team will have 2nd most wins since the team came to Nola .
People complained about Alvin every single game he coached . Just as you complain about Willie night after night .
Also, they should. It's a top 3 ish most talented team we've ever had. Process vs results. Willie isn't getting the most out of the talent level of this team.

Alvin worked with far less talent than Willie not even comparable. The year they went to second round they lost Boogie midseason. Comparing Uncle AL to Willie is a joke. Alvin is far superior.

I don't know if he's coming back unless we make the 2nd round.
His late game mgmt is awful.
He hasn't gotten through to Zion.
His rotations are reaching Monty levels of bad.
Just so much missed. My biggest fear is that we won't be able to upgrade from him

Very frustrating game. I love Naji’s hustle but he was an absolute liability in this game. BI played good but some of his decisions to take heavily contested shots against such a lengthy team had me scratching my head. I’m glad CJ is back.
Hope we get them back Friday night.

Pels could have used Jose tonight, McConnell controlled the game mid third to fourth. Pels played hard but if you can’t stop a point from breaking your defense down and can’t protect the rim it’s always going to be tough sledding. Sort of like baseball where catcher, 2nd base, SS, and center fielder are suspect. Meanwhile Griff, Trajan sit on assets.

I'm very confident the offense Borrego would roll out is exactly what we need

Anthony Davis is the 2nd best player this franchise has had in Nola and superior to anyone on this roster .
They got a gift of a 1st round matchup with The blazers and then got blasted in the second round.
Again Willie is far from perfect but acting like he’s the the biggest or only problem is just wrong .

They were the 3 seed and we were the 6 seed. What are you talking about?
Gentry had a great gameplan especially defensively vs the Blazers.
We lost in 6 to warriors? Thats blasted???

He’s absolutely the biggest problem. 2nd biggest problem is a C that is capable of these matchups.

AD teams didn't have nearly this level of talent. He had Jrue who was good but more of a 3rd option forced into being the second option. The depth isn't even comparable. That isn't even mentioning AD did everything he could to play the 4 and we had terrible starting centers around him as a result.

Exactly. It’s scary how much I agree with you nowadays lol

This idea that borrego doesn’t have a say is wrong .
He wants to spread the floor, run, and move the ball, shoot 3s and layups .
The Pels have 3 dudes that prefer to shoot from midrange and in. To cj’s credit he’s adjusted . BI still hasn’t and Zion isn’t capable .
The number 1 job of an nba coach is to get guys to follow and compete . Willie has done that for the most part . X’s and O’s aren’t perfect and he’s stubborn with rotations . I’m telling you every fan base would say the same about their coach outside of Spo and Ty Lue.

The thunder, rockets, knicks, celtics, cavs, pacers, nuggets, wolves and several others don’t. You’re trying to minimize Willie’s mistakes by saying almost all fans complain about their coach’s issues and thats not true.

Yes getting the blazers was a gift . They had no matchup for Ad and Jrue holiday and rondo could neutralize Dame and cj. It was a good matchup for us . Just a the kings are a good matchup fit us currently .
Gentry was a career loser. Great offensive mind , good dude, and a hell of a politician to to pretend he’s a great head coach is silly.

It’s 100% true .
The coach is the first to get blame when things don’t go as planned .
All those teams that you mentioned have ppl that complain about their after every loss.

Getting the 3 seed on the road despite the matchup is not gift despite how you want to spin it. No one thought we would sweep them- no one.
Never said he was a great coach. I just said hes a much better coach than Willie.

Yeah ok. You think nuggets fans complain about Malone and think hes a major part of the problem? Same for wolves and thunder fans?

Those teams have better players than ours tho….

So you think if Willie was coaching those other teams that he would be just as successful as them? I can promise you that wouldn’t be the case.
