Idk how I feel about David Griffin as gm. I thinks he’s been a whatever gm but Willie Green as coach? I fuck with that. A lot of the bullshit with pelicans ain’t his fault. I think he’d be a proper leader of men, in a way Frank and Bud simply aren’t. I think the fact that he’s a former player goes a long way with locker room, so I definitely be happy with Willie’s our coach, that’d be great. I love Willie! Give me some Willie, cuz I need that Willie.

Willie with a bunch of young guns... Bring it on. I could see Book being revitalized in that scenario.

Wasn't Willie an assistant coach for Warriors when they won a championship with Durant?

Was he??

Herb Jones. Trae Murphy. Dyson Daniels. The trade for Murray. I thought these were all hits.

That pelicans team is nasty good. The freak injuries and the curse of Zion is not on him I don't think

Oh, and by the way, Chris Paul started in all 82 games this year.

Bradley Beal played in 53...
I thought it was 41.

And he has started every game of his career except for last season.

He is an unrestricted free agent. Would he be a better starting point guard at the age of 40 than Tyus Jones was this season?
Something tells me CP3 won't be racing to his phone to pick up our call.

Reports are that Griff knew he was going to be fired. So he should have fired Willie right before he was fired, so he could hire him in Phoenix. :P
