Pelicans to Change Head Coaches

Williams' coaching style was the Rivers type, but his tactical level was far worse than Rivers'.

Strictly speaking, he was somewhat like the Warriors' former Head Coach, Mark Jackson.

Over the two years since Tang Tian took over, he had led the team to rise, coming close to winning Head Coach of the Year twice.

Overall, he, the Pelicans, and Tang Tian were a good fit.

This was also similar to Mark Jackson's situation with the Warriors back then.

But just as he had failed to win Head Coach of the Year, Williams' limited tactical level made it difficult for his performance to satisfy management.

Especially in this year's Playoffs, the Pelicans had repeatedly been hit by opponents' scoring runs, and his timeouts had come too slowly.

If not for Tang Tian's 63-point outburst, the Pelicans would have Stopped in the Western Conference Semifinals.

Moreover, much like the Warriors back then, Tang Tian, Davis, and Jokic formed a core lineup brimming with offensive talent, but the Pelicans' offensive system had yet to take shape, and their average score was not high either.

What Dempsey was saying now reflected Benson's intentions.
