Not immediately, no.
But changing ownership would help. Fresh start.
Seattle deserves it.

What grind Lmaoo this team is horrible structured . This year and last year . They are one of the worst defensive teams in the league . Zion don’t help with defense either . Paying cj 35 million gets u over the hump and makes you a contender ???? . While having the worst starting point guard ??? 150 mills tied up between cj and Devonte ?

Are there examples that prove ownership is the Pelicans problem?

21 years old your very much in the grind. Can’t blame the organization when you’re not available. You got a border all star in Ingram and they got you a playmaker in CJ. Devonte doesn’t start anymore so you dead that. $11Ms annually is light in the NBA. Even though he has been bad.
Teams lead by 21 year olds don’t contend. They made moves to become a playoff team last year. Thanos ain’t healthy and doesn’t want to be there so it doesn’t matter.

You know teams that draft #1 are in a position to do so for a reason right?
You want to see Lebron James’ rookie/soph year Cavs rosters?

Every CBA since 1999 has tried to cut off "player empowerment" and the league ends right where it began.

You can just tell Zion cares nothing about playing in a black city.Zion wilding. Man could be the king. The king of kings. In a black city at that.

Zion was seeing Lebron-like hype and killed all of that

You can’t make any real money in New Orleans if every number one pick you draft wants out.
That may not be on the owners. That might be just be on the market. Maybe the owners have done all they can.
New Orleans just doesn’t care enough. It’s not sustainable. Time to move on.

Yea you can blame the org their roster is horrible
Tomas satoransky
Kira lewis
Garret temple
Devonte graham
Kira Lewis
They replaced Jrue and zo for these guys ?
Lmaoo stop it man you gassed up all these guys and their certified bums gone from the pelicans long term plans in a matter of 6 months
Kira Lewis and naw backcourt ?????
Or a Devonte and naw backcourt ???
They produced the worst numbers in the league for guards and they can’t play defense . Can’t shoot can’t rebound can’t defend undersized
Just admit all your takes this year are laughable at this point
Worst shooting guard point guard combo in the league

What's suprising to me is that Zion seemed like a down-to-earth dude. Maybe it's just his laxed personality. It's clear now there's been 0 initiative to become a leader, there's 0 initiative to take care of his body, there's 0 initiative to turn this franchise around.
Sure the Pels are far from a perfect team, they have a far from a perfect GM, but guess what? They now have 4 proven all-star caliber players, they can easily build around that and become a competitive playoff team. Easily. But it starts with him.
What also worries me is that because there's little to no initiative, has his game already stagnated? We saw a potentially good defensive player in college, but he's such a big liability in the NBA, he's also relied heavily on his power and natural ability to score the ball at an elite level, but will he work on his game some more to add to his arsenal?
Something's up with Zion and it doesn't look good.

In a 2007 New York Times article, this quote from Tellem surfaced about Kobe in Charlotte:
And the Hornets were not the only team Kobe was never going to play for.
