With a win/loss record of 48-34 and advancing to the second round of the 2018 playoffs, the New Orleans Pelicans season was an obvious success, exceeding even many of the most hopeful of expectations. The franchise has already announced that Head Coach Alvin Gentry’s option was picked up for the following season, but does he and/or General Manager Dell Demps deserve contract extensions? If so, for how many years?
Kevin: Yes
Everyone should be given some sort of security. David Grubb suggested that the extensions should be tied to Anthony Davis’ contract on a recent The Bird Calls podcast and I too believe this to be the right move.
