This means the owner is mad because...

a) Demps didn't trade Anthony Davis to the Lakers.

b) Demps was willing to trade Davis to the Celtics or anyone else.

c) Demps didn't use his magic wand to prevent Davis from ever asking to be traded.

d) Demps made poor decisions that led to the Pelicans being so far away from contention that Davis asked to be traded.

My guess is that her reason is b or c, but it should be d.

It's d, but I would have phrased it: Demps had a generational talent but managed only two playoff series appearances and one series win.
