Not going to lie, I'm a hashtag fire Gentry guy but got damn....I'm proud of him for that post game interview.

"I'll take the fine they'll give me tomorrow."

Gentry in his glory
Dude is so worked up he's shaking. Going to bat for AD like that, you know he loves this team.

HIs first words were the words out of my mouth headed to the car. “We play the game the right way and get penalized for it. It’s fricked up.” Some variation. His comment on Harden winking at them like “I got him” and his sarcastic “thanks a lot” had me

Our guys are gonna need to take acting lessons in the offseason and study tape cause there were multiple “sell” plays tonight where we got up and walked it off. When Diallo got hit in the head and took Paul’s help up and when Clark got undercut.

I’m glad he said something because when you’re out scoring someone 60 something in the paint to whatever nonsense Utah had the other night and the jump shooting team is taking all the free throws, it’s fricked up. The attacking team should be getting the calls. Not the one flopping around like fish.

Proud of our team for the style they play though and thanks for sticking up for that coach.

I've never seen Gentry that heated before. Maybe now we won't come out flat in the 3rd quarter?

I was at game - late in 4th qtr, close game, Harden goes up for 3 pt shot on right baseline, Holliday is guarding him. Harden, the bitch, throws his head back like he got hit ... Jrue didn't touch him. Not even close, not even debatable. Worst call I've ever seen. Ref calls foul, the Punk gets 3 FTs, and then 2 more on technical ag Gentry as he walked away from ref. Game gift-wrapped and given to Hous.

I have wanted him to this all year. They have gotten completed screwed all year. If they just don’t fuss about it then it will never get better. They are getting screwed because they are a small market team, but have two All-NBA players in their front court.

The Pelicans have the two best big men in the league and didn’t get the calls they deserved. Holiday doesn’t get the calls he deserved either.

Uncle Al went to bat for the team in that interview. He is 100% correct to, AD is a superstar and gets no calls, it’s pathetic .

We have been waiting for him to go off on the refs for a while now and I think he never wanted the fine but I am very happy he finally did it. Sends a message to the league and shows that he is sticking up for his players.

I'm glad he did this. Harden throws his body around all the time and gets bullshite calls for it. AD gets beat up and even Jrue got a gash on his eye tonight and there wasn't a call. Harden drives to the goal and throws his head back and the refs blow the whistle. I'm tired of it to Uncle Al.

James Harden is the biggest pussy in the league. No debate. Just unenjoyable to watch his bitch arse shoot 10+ free throws every game. Such a pussy.!

Just watched the interview and I can say that this is without a doubt the proudest moment I’ve ever had to have Gentry as my HC


Standing up for the players, showing some passion and emotion. Say what you will about Gentry but that is how you get a locker room to fight for you

frick the fact that capella was out of bounds when he made the pass to Harden.

We got jobbed. How in the frick is the second highest scoring team in the paint not living at the line? How and a damn 3pt shooting team have as many FTs when we damn near doubled them up in the paint.

The Pels need to blow the league office phones up tomorrow.
