Dell is no more

In this NBA season there has been a lot of talk about Anthony Davis leaving the Pelicans. It was recent that he no longer wanted to be a Pelican. This has been very hard on the Pelicans gm. He has not been able to do many things in his time as gm.

The first thing he was good at was getting help for Anthony Davis help that could stay healthy for a long stretch or long term. many talented players passed by the team for one or two seasons. If they were effective they wouldn't stay because of money or the players would want to win. A good case is the way he let Rondo go to the lakers. Rondo was a locker room leader and on court coach for the players. he was a major factor t making the playoff and winning a series. the only series they would win for ten years. Everyone else good was hurt most of there time during the time they were there.

The second the reason is the whole Anthony Davis trade talks and rumors. Anthony Davis told the team and Demps that he wanted a trade. He wanted them to get time so they could get a good trade him. The problems came when it felt he was playing with the Lakers during the trade talks. Lakers gave everything they could give plus the things paying for salaries they wouldn't have anymore. that was the best trade you could get from any team. Also if dealing Davis and his people has been way to public. Even if he isn't to blame the pelicans have to put the blame on someone.

Overall Dell Demps has had many mistakes to get him fired. Anthony Davis was just the final nail in the coffin for him. He had no chance if he didn't get rid of Davis. Dell could have just trade him to the lakers for all the young players. He could have given them one or two more years of hope to keep his job.
