Here’s my list:

Favorites:
Royal Ivey and Johnnie Bryant

Would consider:
Chris Quinn and Jared Dudley

Dark horse:
Mike Wilks

CP3 and Willie Green are my top two choices, both very unrealistic.
Same but I read recently that new Pelicans GM (Dumars) won't let Green go.

It's gonna be Jordan Ott. This is my guess.

If you do a deep dive on him, in 08-09 he was at MSU, so yes lol.

Does he have a son that warmed the bench at MSU? They'll hire him instead.

Somebody that I don't think anybody has brought up is Eddie Johnson. There have been many times while listening to him during games that I thought "Well if you know so much then go down there and coach them!"

We all know he was a defensive stalwart.

I'm pretty sure his motto is "Do as I say, not as I do"

I like Borrego but the Pelicans are a mess & I just am not that sure what he can do for us that he couldn't supposedly do for them. I admit assistants don't have as much of a say or as much pull, but I'm not thrilled with either of those. Dave Joerger is another retread who has *not* even made the playoffs. I don't get it.

Yeah, I don't know. I also don't know how much we can trust all these "reports". I guess we'll find out soon enough. It can't be too long now.

That doesn't matter to us, right? KD gone?
