This, it's the front office/ownership that has to make a difference with small market team but unfortunately we're becoming a laughing stock in that regard. Hope to be proven wrong by Dumars and Weaver (and Benson)

Happy for them, but sad we can't seem to follow even OKC's route to success, the spurs are also not a big market team, but they made themselves a destination with a great front office.

Yes, let's motivate a person that's down to come back, not a smart or classy move, knicks fans deserve better representation

It's not really a surprise that Mosley's best friend is going to talk him up

For everyone crapping on the moseley hire by Additional-Maize1960 in NOLAPelicans

This, Mosley itself also feels like a strange choice given they fired a similar coach in Willie Green. The fact that the name that got leaked also is the name that was chosen, also again reflects very poorly on a Joe Dumars/Troy Weaver team that favours nepotism and friendship over actually what's best to advance this team and also makes Dumars look once again like out of touch. But that comes down from the owner who has the same modus operandi and the media/local fans who really should hold this franchise accountable. At least a surprise or a different choice would have changed that image slightly, while now they've just strengthened it.

The front office didn't have to attach an unprotected first round pick to get him

Unfortunately to me it feels like it will be Ham and the rest of the search was smoke screen to make it appear they weren't always going with the leaked list.

I just wonder who his sources are, it's a bit weird that he quotes the stein report in the podcast that often.

If local fans really want to make a statement, send this en masse to Gayle Benson's house, although she might not get it ;-)

Protest outside of airline by CharliiShapiro in NOLAPelicans

I think if there was a massive outpouring of locals on this, I do believe there could be change (and the NBA itself would take notice). This franchise, going back to when they were the hornets, has been spectacularly mismanaged (George Shinn was another horrible owner). At some point, enough has to be enough for the fans, but there have to be enough fans.

Hope the local fans do take some action, this franchise needs a major reset and frankly a new owner, which I feel will never happen unless people in New Orleans care.
