How many videos we gonna make about Willie on the hot seat? We know it, he knows it, everyone knows it. We know he probably won't make it 25 games. The first 10 are tough.
I miss B.I. We need a closer. Not sure if Jordan or Trey is that guy. To compete for a playoff spot we gonna need a mid-season trade of significance.
I kinda knew that Looney pickup wasn't the elixir we thought it would be. He has had injuries to erode his agility and mobility over the 10 yr span that made this injury a likelihood as far as im concerned. Anyways, Missi should of started regardless to preserve Looney's availability. Plus, at this point Missi is the better player, sans defensive rebounding but he's gotta play to improve in that area. In Missi we trust.
Come on now, we all knew that Garrett Temple was better than Trey.

Jake it’s the eye test. The team just looks predictable. Blacktop bs. I see a few more plays added but he just not smart enough at coaching. Perfect assist coach though.
Every dayer!!
He is in the hot seat even before the start of the szn
An injury….on the Pelicans…welcome to business as usual 🏀🇬🇧

Please say it's true that Willie Green 🍏 is on the Hot 🥵 seat 🪑 he should have been there 5 years ago 😮 Yep
He should be on the hot seat. The roster is the way it is now due to the decisions he’s made in previous seasons
Hi jake
We all know that Willie is on the hot seat. About half the coaches in the league is on the hot seat. I do like James Borrego.
All head head coaches should choose their own assistant coaches .
After watching these last 2 preasons games . Joe needs to rethink the idea of a possible trey Murphy trade . Trey can't put the ball on the floor and create shots on his own
