Remember when summer league was selling out because people wanted to see him play? I felt we were making huge progress as an organization with all of the momentum in the works. Then Zion got hurt, but why was the organization all cryptic about the injury and all we heard was “it was more serious than we thought” for weeks. Could have just told us the severity.

Bring Monty Williams back. I’m done with Gentry. He’ll never be a winner as HC. And Davis was smart to leave in hindsight so far. Sucks to be a Pels fan right now.

If griff says he’ll be back in December/January, it probably means he’ll be back October 2020

Start a gofundme for a practitioner of voodoo and a priest to exorcise the franchise’s demons.

Davis is still getting banged up and having to sit out for a bit here and there during games. So you’re not correct with that statement

The unfortunate thing is even though the hype has died down, Gentry will still be here when he returns. And the hype will quickly come back and then eventually die down due to Gentry. We should dump Gentry now.

More like sleeping. They hype was never "real" anyway, at least not in regards to wins. It was all about Zion being transcendant. When he comes back, the hype will return with it, because the hype around Zion wasn't about winning per se, but about him being something we've never seen before.

So many are ready to blow it all up and go young, but I think if the Pels don't give away their vets like Jrue and JJ they are primed for a KD/Russ OKC Thunder like rise to prominence, going from 20 something wins to 50 the next year. This season being "lost" is probably necessary to address the coaching situation and raise the team's ceiling long term.
