Stan Van Gundy talked about New Orleans Pelicans with on The Stupodity podcast: «I would say it was joint in this sense: I don’t want to be somewhere they don’t want me. And they didn’t want me. I wasn’t, at that point, going to fight to try to stay there. It wasn’t a mutual decision».
«We just weren’t on the same page at all about what coaching is all about and how coaches should be judged and everything else. We just looked at coaching totally different. That became apparent probably a little during the season, but certainly after the season. We were on two totally different pages. Who’s right and who’s wrong is up to anybody’s individual perspective, but we certainly did not see things the same way».
«Zion’s no coach kille. He’s a guy who is gonna help you win a lot of games. He plays the game the right way. One of the things I’ll miss is the opportunity to continue to coach him».
