Alvin Gentry parlayed the Warriors dream season, and his vast experience into the head coaching position with the New Orleans Pelicans.
According to Monte Poole of CSN Bay Area, Gentry managed to show Pelicans brass that they could utilize Anthony Davis even more efficiently.
Primarily responsible for the Warriors offense — top-rated for most of the season — Gentry believes the Pelicans have underutilized Davis’ offensive skills. Not only did he express this during his initial interview with Loomis and Demps, but Gentry also came into that session equipped with charts and graphs to illustrate his point.
How exactly can you utilize a First Team All NBA player even better is the question Gentry will have to answer. Davis averaged 17.6 field goal attempts per game, but most of that usage came before the fourth quarter of a lot of ballgames.
