    The Pels are a one team instrument of parity. We're keeping the NBA close by giving good teams losses and bad teams wins.

    We're making the league more competitive!

    I like the personnel. I've been begging for an offensive mined guru for years and years while Monty has been here.

    Every year, this coach makes me want one even more. That end of the floor is the problem. The bare talent on that end is the only thing that keeps the ratings decent.

    I dont think we should fire Monty just yet. Give him a chance with the full health roster. This should be a really good team with Jrue-Gordon-Qpon and Reke off the bench. If he cant win with them, time to go

    Fact is we are missing our 2 best players and Anderson practically playing for the other team

    Give Monty at least 10 more years! He's a nice guy, a players coach, and can help the Pelicans load up on lottery picks for years to come.

    No one gets 5 years in any pro sport and stays without a playoff, not even the best of the best. Infact I don't know if you can have 4 bad years and still be around. Over under on Monty being fired before LA Lakers game?

    so I just realized this Dell Harris guy was a good coach at one point, why is he in the studio?

    Also fans have a voice, the KC Chiefs were able to do it. http://www.chiefsplanet.com/bb/showthread.php?t=264510
    that is the save the chiefs movement when things were bad up until last year they flew banners over the stadium put together rallies before games where people would wear shirts stating save our chiefs or bags over there heads. Ownership loved the front office then but knew if they wanted to keep the fan base they would have to make changes.

    I'll say if they lose to the Lakers. Especially with AD back, he'll be gone shortly after. No doubt in my mind.

    I disagree with anyone who says that roster changes>coaching change right now. This roster can win.. I believe that and the team has shown they can beat anyone on any given night. They need a new coach who can put it all together on a consistent basis.

    You can make Ryan Anderson shoot that awful. Not possible.

    If I'm not mistaken he has had to deal with almost a totally roster for the 1st 3 yrs. That not fair to judge. this is basically yr 2 with a core for Monty, and not having to reinstall his system again.

    2 bad years with a top 10 player and now top 5 and u get under .500 basketball? He is gone. Didn't take Kerr to long in golden state to reinstall the system. I am so tired of that bs excuse.

    Kerr basically kept the same system. And basically all yrs with anthony davis, key members of the team were either Injured or mediocre. Last yr was the first yr we actually had the talent on paper to make playoffs and we all know what happened to Jrue AD Ryno and Tyreke. If you want a guy for the sake of wanting him out just say that, but can't say he hasn't had to deal with lack of talent or low basketball IQ players for most of his tenure. You can't compare oranges to tangerines just because they look the same.

    Guys, I have a solution to your frustrations. Start betting this team straight up LWLWLWLWLWLWL. I have made 3800.00 the last few weeks.

    it will be like this the rest of the year.

    I want the guy out because of his body of work which is simply under .500 basketball. I gave him a mulligan last year, but he has not shown me anything to think he is better than what I have seen this year. Sounds like you are just making a bunch of excuses.. Good coaches don't need excuses. They find a way to make the team play hard no matter what the circumstances.

    Go back to individual games through the years, regardless of the talent he was working with. I cant count how many times PER SEASON we question his ability to call timeouts to stop a run, or prepare the team for what should be an easy game, or handle late-game rotations in close situations.

    There are differences between excuses and reasons.. excuses are monuments of nothing. I for one do not support excuses but I am fair. In my eyes and my opinion this is yr 2 for monty. And has still dealt with injury. Do i think he is perfect... No. Do i think He barely gets credit for the wins but takes all of it for the losses... Yes. Do I question his strategy and rotations at times... yes. Do I feel like he is an awful coach... No. The statement was made that it didn't take Kerr long to implement his system. And my rebuttal was that Kerr basically kept the same system so you can't compare the two. Both situations were not the same. And I think playing without 2 of your 4 and sometimes 3 of your 4 Key players for and extended period of time is not an excuse. I would be having the same stance if it was somebody else coaching. People are so used to this microwave society that they want results now. It doesn't work like that. I had hopes of us making the playoffs but i would be okay if we didn't I looked at this season different from most. As long as we have improvement from last yr at the end of the season I see it as a step in the right direction, and if we made the playoffs then that's just a plus.

    We won last night because Frenchy had the game of his life.

    We lost tonight because the kid from baton rouge had the game of HIS life.

    Why is it dudes have their career highs against us?

    I am a strong New Orleans fan. I do partial agree with you. Some times I do question some of his decisions. But you have to remember what coaching tree he comes from. Pop, as well as some of other coaches (Phil, Rick Carlisle, Tom Thib), at times force there guys to play through droughts and stop the bleeding themselves. Pop did it alot when Tony Parker was hunger. So i believe he was trying the same thing. However, you need High basketball IQ players to do so. In most cases Monty did not have that. Now if you want to argue that he should realize this sooner, then that's a different discussion. However, you can't say it's not the right thought process to try to implement that with your players because the best coaches in the business do it. And is a luxury if your team is able to achieve that
