@vvaantt @PelicansNBA Brother in Christ what that man did for 30 plus years had nothing to do with how awful this franchise has been on the court. If they wanted to fire him, then fine that is their decision. But at least do it in person, not over an email. The man deserves better than that.

We got the legend David West calling the Pelicans handling of the Big shot situation shameful and embarrassing (which it is).
Can this franchise do anything right?
Gayle Benson preaches running things like a family but that couldn't be further from the truth. @PelicansNBA

@Uptown_AMill @JonoBarnes @camjordan94 it’s Twitter and I have spare time. I also can say the same for everyone crying cuz he got let go. it’s a non issue. that’s the point.

@vvaantt @JonoBarnes @camjordan94 lol it is weird how you cant stop tweeting about a man you never met
English
@JonoBarnes you made cuz ya mentor got canned, I get it. nobody is upset that he’s beloved lol ppl are annoyed at the outrage behind an equipment manager getting let go. Especially when yall been begging the team to not operate based on relationships.
English
And that goes for everyone who seems to be aghast at the reaction to Big Shot getting laid off
Sorry that some of yall aren't as beloved as he is. Maybe one day you all can be. Go fold some towels or something for the Pelicans and you just might be, I hear they are hiring.

@vvaantt @camjordan94 you in everybody mentions crying about this. I promise no one is going "I wonder what vvaantt thinks in a time like this". I'm sorry Shotty took your girl or something tho

If you critiqued the Tyler Shough pick last year (and odds are you did) then you can’t go hard at any of the Saints picks this year if you don’t like one. Us fans gotta have consequences for our actions I’m sorry. 🤷🏽♂️

@BootKreweMedia @ProPelsTalk Craziest part is if the administration actually seemed competent it may be a defendable move.Instead the team is awful, we don’t have a pick, so they decide it’s time to fire through email a dude beloved by all who has been there since the 80s. Just wow

Former players and fans reacted to long time employee, David ‘Big Shot’ Jovanovic, being let go yesterday by the Pelicans
English
@BootKreweMedia which player contributed to winning something for the city? idgaf what they gotta say
English
@TurdFNOLA5 it’s a non issue is the point. so all this fake outrage is kinda crazy.
English
How does him having the job for 40 years affect YOU as a fan? How does him getting fired via email affect YOU as a fan?
Joshua P.@Startariotmedia
@TurdFNOLA5 Stop it...that dude had the job for almost 40 years...time to go

@JasonQuigs he got paid for 38 years. thank u for ur service. enjoy retirement.
English
It’s very discouraging seeing the lack of humanity from so many people on here about a beloved member of the Pelicans community being fired.
English
@Molepium @JDubOfInTheNO has gotten equally what he’s given. paid fairly for his 38 years of service. yall crying like he was a volunteer or something
English
@JDubOfInTheNO Blocked every single person I have seen actually arguing in favour of this. I genuinely have zero time for some of the stuff I've read like "Need to Clean House" "Good, get in a younger guy"
It's not hard to show empathy for someone who is beloved and given so much.
English
If you don’t see “the big deal” of firing a dedicated employee after 38 years of service: you’re subhuman.
English
@PelsNationCP I don’t give a fuck bout it. kinda annoyed with all the crying.
English
Pelicans fans are upset after organization reportedly let go of beloved, 38-year equipment manager.

@JonoBarnes @camjordan94 he didn’t do it for free bruh. 38 years of pay is more than enough. have a nice retirement. thanks for ur services.
English
@camjordan94 Thanks for always being a man of honor Cam. Shot deserved better for a organization he dedicated his life to.
English
@snowlikejonn yall crying bout an equipment manager when the team hasn’t won 50 games in two seasons combined.
English
Absolutely egregious move axing big shot ain’t no way he deserved that
Shamit Dua@FearTheBrown
Multiple sources indicate that long time equipment manager, David Jovanovic, aka "Big Shot" has been let go by the Pelicans. Jovanovic has served as the equipment manager since 1988 when the Charlotte expansion franchise was introduced. The move has completely shocked people.
English
The right thing to do was let Shotty decide when it was time. Shameful and embarrassing....
Eldridge Recasner@erecasner
What in the hell is wrong with the @PelicansNBA letting go BIG SHOT??? He’s been with the organization since it’s inception in 1988. If my math is correct that’s 38 years. This is a damn shame
English
@rosethaaartist hate that it’s so many black folks in these comments perpetuating stereotypes smh.

If you already added gratuity to my bill then the tip has been handled. I’m not tipping twice.
English
I always tip $10… no matter the amount idk why it just feels fair
Thrilla the Gorilla@ThrillaRilla369
You're eating out and the bill is $74 - what are you tipping? Be honest, I'm trying to prove a point.
