You're likely firing yourself too with that.

Bad teams lose games they should win

We are literally the 2nd worst at losing games this year where we've led by 10+. The other 4 teams are non-playoff caliber teams/play-in caliber teams.

Let that sink in.

I do think though this is giving Griffin a lot to think about in the offseason regardless how our season goes. It shouldn’t be happening this many times- its just ridiculous with the talent this team has. You watch Griffin will trade Naji on purpose just so Willie has to play Trey and Hawkins more minutes.

this is the issue. Any competent owner is firing griff if Willie gets fired. This would be his 4th coach in 6 years

Willie put in Cody fricking Zeller over Trey in the fourth when Val got his 5th.

That is just really bad and I'm praying that Nance isn't washed

Memphis doesn’t really have bigs. If anything you go with Trey and let his shooting open things up.

Makes me wonder if we will never see a Point Zion with CJ, Trey, and Hawkins spacing the floor under Green. Would be bad defensively and on the boards but would be hella fun to watch on offense.

Willie raves about Trey when he goes off but hes hesitant in giving him major minutes? I don’t get it. Like Trey Murphy is a guy who easily could average 20 plus points if given the minutes. Instead we have to give away his minutes to gritty defensive guys. Its absolute nonsense.

Yep. You don’t get another coach if you’re griff. At that point you’re the issue.

Pelicans need an Ime Udoka type coach. He instilled an elite defensive toughness into the Celtics. Remember how they were absolutely terrorizing Durant in that Nets series. Pels need a guy with a zero tolerance for BS lack of effort.

I have a gut feeling if Griffin can upgrade (Ty Lue), he’ll pull the trigger. Remember he doesn’t have to fire Willie when this season ends- his contract expires. Technically he just wouldn’t resign him. He can just move on.

Seriously don’t get why they keep putting Zion on the corner sidelines. He should be in the paint trying to grab rebounds.
