Ny Post says D'Antoni interviewed and is still a candidate.
Smh. If we went through all of this to circle back to Vanilla Gentry...

Bovada has Pelicans HC hire with Lee at +150 odds now. Seems like free money.

It also flies in the face of where the entire league is moving, and everything we've heard about what the team is looking for, to go back to a 70 year old coach.

What if he was the offensive coordinator though? I don't know why he'd leave Brooklyn for the Pels, but if you hire a first time HC you usually try to pair them with an experienced lead assistant.

which is likely finding a coach that will please Zion Williamson’s disgruntled family
This is what I was afraid of.. Griffin thinks he needs to hire a recognizable name to appease the armchair GMs in Zions circle

Mac is dropping some cryptic tweets about Willie Green (Suns assistant). Dark horse?
Here were the Fletch tweets:

No clue what Fletch said. Just saying he is gonna get a job soon. Perhaps very soon
Here were the Fletch tweets:

Pelicans head coach update:
- NOLA had interest in Billups
-I’m told Vaughn’s decision truly family related, about comfort in Brooklyn
-Bucks Charles Lee presumed favorite
But remember this name, I’m hearing it a lot now:
Willie Green
Suns associate head coach/quote]
[quote]As NBA player, Green played one season in NOLA (then Hornets) 2010-11.
Given Pels had strong interest in Billups and Vaughn, I may move Green to #1 candidate since he’s also an NBA vet and that seems to matter for NOLA in this search.
Lee played overseas, but not in NBA.

to be fair d'antoni is a far better coach than gentry ever was
the issue is, we won't ever win a title with d'antoni because he cannot adjust (or maybe harden and nash couldn't).

Yeah I’d be cool with Willie. In fact he could be my #1
Posted on 6/29/21 at 9:49 pm to LesGeaux45
Yes!!! Fletch is saying Willie Green which ultimately means Charles Lee is the choice. Always bet opposite of Fletch info for best accuracy of legit info.

I leave Pels talk for two seconds... Jesus

Willie Green is employed so it seems like an interview would leak like it did with Lee and Vaughn.
Posted on 6/29/21 at 9:51 pm to TigerinATL
Today is the day I learned that Willie Green is a coach.
Posted on 6/29/21 at 9:58 pm to hendersonshands
I mean if he brings in Downtown Devin Brown and Captain Jarret Jack as his lead assistants I'm all the way in

Dan Dickau as the lead assistant and JR Smith as the life coach!

I didn't realize Charles Lee was that young, only 36 years old. Dude's been coaching since he was in his 20's.
I wasn't familiar with the name at all, but after seeing he's been coaching for almost 10 years, with the last 7 years being in the NBA, I really like the upside.

Willie Green has one of my all time favorite moments in Hornets history. When he hit those 12 consecutive shots. Absolutely incredible

It's about as close as we can get to a "one of us" hire lol
