Despite a 131-121 win over the OKC Thunder, the Pelicans chose to fire their GM Dell Demps today.

Speculation (which we'll have a ton of this afternoon on In The Zone) will run rampant.

Was he fired because of the Anthony Davis mess as a whole? Was he fired because Davis went AWOL during the game? Was he fired because he couldn't get a deal done at the deadline? Why exactly did they let him go.

What we do know is: HC Alvin Gentry still has a job and I wouldn't expect Anthony Davis to play many more minutes for the remainder of the season.
