Pelicans may be the most boring team in the nba. They should’ve rigged the lottery at least a fun team would’ve got Zion.

They have talent. They don’t have fans. Their games are so damn boring because there’s less than 10,000 fans at their game. So quiet, no energy in the building.

I remember reading it’s an uphill battle for all New Orleans teams because they don’t have wealth/affluence of most other cities with professional teams.

170 - New Orleans, Louisiana MSA 1,337,726 $18,834

That is $18.8k per capita income. Daaaaaang. Can't afford seats on 19k a year.

What could be worse?
183 - Gainesville, Florida MSA 217,955 $18,465

187 - Athens, Georgia MSA 153,444 $18,303

bwahahaha

Some think LA will trade the 4th pick for AD.👀👀 I could be wrong but I think Lebron has LA rig something up to send the 4th pick Zo and kuzma or Ingram for the number 1 overall pick if New Orleans bits on it,especially if Zion expresses he wants to be traded.he was not happy about New Orleans at all lol.

I posted this before to try to give some context. It only deals with his time at Georgia where competition is similar to ours. So yep he had the 22nd fewest sacks allowed in 2014 but that was for the Mason-led 90th best passing offense. They had Chubb and Gurley in the backfield that year so 2 NFL running backs probably helped that offensive line and maybe vice versa as far as the run game goes. It's hard to point fingers and single out one position group without context. For example early in his career at Georgia, he had a young QB that was primarily a passer and they were a passing team for the most part as long as Murray was there. He set all kinds of SEC passing records. When he left they relied more on the run. Another thing is I don't think they ever had all that much talent on their offensive line while he was there. I have that chart and I've posted it before. We lost to them all 4 of those years, by 8, 7, 3 and 3. They didn't really dominate us and if Pig don't lose the dang ball we might have won in '13 or if on their last drive we don't give up the career longest run to the least mobile quarterback in the SEC we probably don't even go to overtime. My point is there's a lot of things that can affect the stats that are often attributed to the offensive line and maybe it makes more sense if we used some context. That said, if our offensive line isn't improved this year I'm blaming somebody. I'll figure out who later if we aren't improved which I think we will be. jmo.

Edit to add: Chaney has coached OL at both the collegiate and NFL levels so I think him working with Friend is much to our advantage this year and going forward. As far as Helton goes I couldn't find anywhere that he might have had any experience working directly with offensive lines. Debord was another guy we had that had a lot of experience working with OLs in both college and in the pros. We should have much more cohesion with our OL this year just from a staff perspective alone. jmo.

Think the same is true for Pittman? To oversimplify, the more talent and talent around you, the better you look at coaching?

I think Chandler is a fairly explosive back but was held back by our OL. And that could suggest regardless of GA's backs, they needed a decent OL to get those numbers.

It's crazy how much of a team sport FB really is and how hard it is to figure out who gets credit and the whole chicken/egg answer.
Much respect for the time you put in attempting to decipher.

HAHA I remember that but they changed did change it. I forgot all about the flying colonel though. It was more fun back before 2011 to fly. In the 90's and early 2000's it was so much easier to upgrade to first class in the States or Business class when flying over seas.
