Pelicans oust Willie Green after slow start in season’s first NBA coaching shakeup
The New Orleans Pelicans' decision to fire Willie Green after a 2-10 start highlights a significant coaching shakeup in the NBA. This move, confirmed by multiple sources including The Guardian, reflects the pressures teams face when performance does not meet expectations. As James Borrego steps in as interim coach, the Pelicans are not alone in experiencing coaching changes; similar patterns are observed across the league, as seen in the recent discussions surrounding James Franklin's potential hiring at Virginia Tech after his own firing. The impact of injuries on team performance remains a critical factor in these coaching decisions.
