This is a bad coach
The problem is yall too friendly with these guys as coaches. Yall got BI and CJ thinking they’re on Zion’s level and should be the ball handlers. Did that all season then Z had to take over. Much more flow when Jose is in. Those dudes are good secondary players but they’re not 1a options yall have to get Zion healthy and pray he reaches whatever his ceiling is

I just don't understand it either. Jordan Hawkins has had multiple 30-point games this year, and Ryan is also just sitting on the bench. This team literally has fire power sitting on the bench.
Shitty coach. We’ll keep him for another 2-3 years just like Dennis Allen because we love being a big happy mediocre family 😂💀

How does Nance improve your offensive opportunities?
I feel like Willie Green does not know how to make adjustments, I think we are 0-33 when going into the 4th quarter trailing,we suck at home, every time we play any big game we end up getting embarrassed are blown out. The coaching staff and team just both look Lost out there today.
You’re terrible how did you finesse a extension beyond me
1-6 in the last six important games.. Never won a game that they were trailing starting the fourth quarter in a whole season… I've never seen that before

A team that when they are going, they are good. When it's not they throw in the towel so to speak. Is it coaches? Ok. But the players need to care too.
This guy doesn't change shit up for nothing. I lost confidence in him the after all star break. He's too stubborn and predictable. Willie is a very nice guy though. Give them credit.

The Dennis Allen of basketball
tryna generate more offense without jv makes no sense he was on pace to drop 20 and 10
I thought last season play-in was the tale sign but this series is cemented, CJ is not that guy for us. Last year he was dealing w hand injury so he got a pass this year it’s abundantly clear that CJ is not that guy for us, we’re less efficient as a unit when he tries to make something out of nothing. He’s only a real threat when Zion is on court & he plays off-ball but he can’t run nor get anyone good looks. It’s time we move on from CJ, we can find other offball shooters for cheaper. The only way we should invest in another smaller guard is if they’re able to create offense for others. Besides that let’s use his 30 Mill to go get other pieces.

Perfectly said. When reports of us closing on the deal to get him I was like, I get the idea of acquiring him, a secondary playmaker who can play off ball and shoot. But we need someone in higher level, like Fox and Mitchell (both were not as good as they are today). And he doesn’t even fit our timeline.
This is unacceptable. Total loss of respect for this team. They would have to win three or four straight to get me back on the bandwagon.
We need a friggin point guard that can run the team. Teade cj / bi for a true point guard.

@@cadestockman5731 intentionally at this point; they are probably going to just keep kicking the can down the road if history repeats itself with this organization. they are going to give brandon his extension and just say fuck it; we'll figure it out later. they don't care about meaningful winning; they care about selling tickets. whatever can make them marketable. david griffin (our vp of basketball operations) started his career in PR (aka PUBLIC RELATIONS). one last tidbit, the pelicans had THE SECOND BEST RECORD IN FRANCHISE HISTORY, AND DIDNT EVEN KNOW FOR SURE IF THEYD BE IN THE PLAYOFFS WHEN THE SEASON ENDED.

Time too trade bi and Cj free up that cap space
Fire this DUDE!!
Zion's injuries has been keeping this clown employed. Every year he just says well we didn't have our best player that's why the team failed. The Pelicans were a play-in team with Zion. Zion had to have the game of his life just to have the game against the Lakers tied after getting blown out against them 2 days before.
It is over!!!
Get Willie outta here now ! Him and his staff is killing a team with too much potential ! We never get open shots, Willie thinks them defensive lineups are effective. Lineups can’t score or stop nobody so I don’t see what he he’s seen all year ! Why keep BI bringing the ball up when Lu is pressing all game? Put him in positions elsewhere to score without needing to bring it up. Why nobody cuts? Thunder killing us because everyone knows how to play off the ball. 1 thing going that’s Jv being a problem in the paint but Willie goes defense in the 2nd half and the same thing happened that happened all year , we get killed coming out the half ! Larry has to go only because Willie uses him as a crutch and it don’t work ! Griff gotta go because he plays it too safe ! CJ gotta go and Bi I’m sorry blow it up
The one adjustment I liked is BI on Chet. And nance and Val on giddey

Yeah it’s just a shame Brandon is on one leg while playing with a terrorist
So tired of hearing Willie Greens voice?
The front office and this coaching staff is extremely disconnected with each other. Do they even talk? Why in the hell did we keep JV if the man is only giving us 11 damn minutes?? The guy comes out and gets 7 straight points and then it’s back to bench purgatory never to be seen again. This is insane.
Cj was the reason for all them turnovers! But its your fault by having him play pg! We have to get rid of cj for a real pg
If offense is the problem then put Hawkins in.
“Go home and have a good meal”….
I wonder who he gave credit to this time....
Bench cj n bi. Play dd,ej, hawk. They ready to play. Simple. We use cj n Bi off the bench scoring anyways
No plan B It's sad to see him standing on the side line with that look on his face when things not working. Start Jose CJ can't keep up with those young players, too many turn overs no defense. Jonas playing soft under the rim instead of breaking the rim with dunks he stand flat footed missing easy buckets, one man takes a shot 4 others stand around watching thinking the ball will go in leading to no offense rebounds. Next game should be FREE
Need to stop holmgren

They did and it got them a 20 point lose. You take away it leaves someone else open. OKC can shoot the ball. The ball moves. They are very hard to defend. NO has zero chance playing it the way they are playing on defense. Chet is not the key to OKC's offense. If you are going to try and cut off the head of the snake you get the ball out of SGA's hands. Make anyone else beat you. He steps over 1/2 court you hard double him. Get the ball out of his hands. If you think Chet, is the key good luck. He's not. He can score and when he does OKC even harder to beat. But when he doesn't, they aren't dead like tonight. If SGA doesn't score OKC is dead. When he missed games OKC loses. That tells you something. Get it out of his hands. If you do and still lose you tip your hat. But to keep doing what you are doing is going to get you a loss in a 7 games series. NO is good but OKC roster overall is better.
This is a bad coach
Cant beat Okc or the Lakers level reached

Tell coach green adjust the starter, JV BI Herb CJ Dyson, or JV Nancy BI Herb CJ. Murphy is bad defender, it is stupid to let murphy play the most time
Game 4 we need to play with a spark. I believe we can still win Game 4 at home. The thunder is not that good of a team in my opinion. C.J & Ingram going have to score 25 points each. Close in on defenders on other side.

They got lucky and won 57 games? Hardly. When a team is built around 1 guy, Zion good luck. If that 1 guy isn't superman, you lose. Or gets hurt Zion seems to more times than not. You lose. OKC is built around a roster. The ball moves. Everyone can shoot it. Everyone can handle it well enough. They don't turn it over. They go 11 deep, and it doesn't kill you when a starter leaves the floor. You foul them they hit FTs. Not a good team? I'm willing to bet NO would trade their roster for OKC's in a heartbeat. Tell me how you win 57 games without being a good team?

Players play…Pels have a little nastiness…it’s the playoffs you need to make them feel it. It’s the freakin playoffs!! BI too soft and needs to be more vocal with the refs…Trey needs to drive to the basket.
This coach is a joke 🤣🤣 the fans of the New Orleans pelicans deserve better I feel so bad for them as they sat in the stands and watch the pelicans be outplayed and out coached the coaching staff Anna pelicans organization all the citizen and the fans of the New Orleans pelicans and apology for paying their hard-earned money to watch the pelicans get beat by 30 points. Let's face it coach green cannot coach against the elite coaches in the NBA he has not shown that he can make the proper adjustments when your basketball team shot 9 for 32 from the field and you still didn't make a line of change . Moving forward I don't want to hear CJ McCollum say another time that he has to do better it's time to get rid of CJ McCollum and get you a young point guard in the upcoming draft along with a bigger more athletic center in the middle yes it's unfortunate that Zion William cannot play but when your guards cannot shoot or defend you have a major problem CJ McCollum look like what he is an old man😂 as those young Oklahoma thunder players ran around him it's time to move on from CJ McCollum see you in June in the upcoming draft until next year take care ⚜️👍✌️💯
Yikes

He too soft and too stubborn on them garbage lineups. He not a championship coach he like his teams full of role players so him and griff have no expectations. He literally said he don’t want players that score 25 30+ a night because that’s too much on them and that means he needs to gtf because that’s not a championship mentality and this team has too much potential besides CJ and BI. Bi has no ❤️ and too nonchalant. Get us Trae Young with Zion ! With a new center and coaching staff

He is too soft.
