This seems like deja vu, but the New Orleans Pelicans will once again be looking for a new head coach after parting ways with Stan Van Gundy.
There were rumblings of discontent and rumors that Van Gundy had butted heads with some of his young players, so I don’t think this is shocking, though it was still unexpected, as I thought Van Gundy would at least get another half season to turn things around.
There were some positives to his tenure, as he was the one to unleash Point Zion, but ultimately his style of coaching might not have been a fit.
