A Preventable Disaster: How Pelicans’ Indecision Torpedoed a Season Before It Began

7 comments

1. Firing Willie means nothing when the people above him are actively sabotaging the team through incompetence.

2. We had chance to fire Willie, cut ziin( contract wasn’t guaranteed) and keep BI with top ten pick. We choose wrong

3. This is so depressing….

4. So you’re saying Willie is getting fired and Borrego is being promoted.

   Bet.

   (Obviously wish this happened months ago)

5. We’re 4 games in. I know it’s not great and we shouldn’t pretend otherwise, but there’s still 75 games to go.

   Does no one remember 2022? 3-16 start to playoffs?

6. I would also add that indecision on who they wanted to draft meant that they made a decision to trade away what now look like two very good picks in order to take Queen.

   I hope it works out with DQ and Fears, but can’t help but think they should have just targeted one or two and taken who they believed was BPA at their pick.

7. This is the third GM in a row that Gayle has saddled with a lame duck coach.
