Mike Budenholzer perhaps candidate for Magic

[DesignatedT]

It wouldn't compare to when we lost P.J. :/

PJ was an assistant under Pop from 2002-2007.

Budenholzer has been an assistant coach under Pop from 1996 - present. Which is pretty damn nuts.

If they give us Dwight.

Fire Pop, appoint Bud

Lakers
Clippers
Suns
Pacers

Of course how did I leave out those LA teams lol.

I assume the Phx connection is Alvin Gentry? Looking at his wiki the Spurs link is back from the late 80's though.

Lol when was this? And how could have I missed this

2 seasons ago (10-11) Pop got tossed during a game vs Magic. Bud went with a hack-a-howard. Dwights feelings were hurt and he talked some shit to Bud.

Bud would not be a good head coach, imo. I don't think he's a big enough asshole to actually be a good coach.

Fuck Avery. I can't stand that fucking pine knot.

good (non-)news!

that would be a major blow to our future! (not saying he is the key to championships, but we have to like him over trying out like 5 coaches in 3 years)

I guess Bud knows he will have a good and safe future here. why go somewhere else (and probably getting fired because he doesn't win with ryan anderson as his franchise player), when he is appreciated here.

A while back I saw Bud do a coaching clinic for some high school students. He can be very intense. He's not a soft-spoken guy. We don't see that side of him on the bench with Pop, because it's not necessary as an assistant.

Well Budenholzer's not a candidate, but Jacque Vaughn is.
