So not a lottery pick. 😥😥

Can't believe the Pelicans gave their number one for Asik, a player who wii be an unrestricted free agent in 2015/16.

I can. That's been the hallmark of Dell Demps and Monty Williams (hopefully changes under Gentry, but I've got my doubts). Outside of Anthony Davis, they've shown a complete disregard for/disinterest in developing young players. Frankly, if we were in the East, it would be a good formula. We'd be a regular top 4 seed. The West requires a bit more depth and athleticism to break through. If our roster were ever fully healthy for a full season, we could be a pretty dangerous team. But we've been in "build for now" mode for years, which usually includes sitting drafts out because we traded for vets and/or sold draft picks (we sold our only pick tonight to the Clippers). I know the NBA isn't the NFL where you need key contributors every year from the draft, but we need to embrace youth a little more than we have.

So what do you think about Gentry, BrockMeaux?

And that drama queen was picked over EP for Outstanding Player in the SBC last year?

I am glad he went to the Celtics, I can not think of a team I hate more than the Celtics.

So what do you think about Gentry, BrockMeaux?

I don't hate the hire. He'll bring an offensive system that we need to improve on that end of the floor. I just don't know if he's "the guy." That said, I don't know who "that guy" is. I think Tom Thibodeau would have gotten a lot out of our roster, but he would have grinded guys like Davis into the ground and it's only a matter of time before things sour when you manage a roster with that kind of "my way or the highway" attitude. He wasn't interested because he believes Anthony Davis will leave after his contract is up, and he wouldn't have meshed with Dell Demps, who was looking for a coach that will coach and leave everything else to him, which Gentry will be.
