....AJ to coach the 2010 Spurs!.......?

[mouse]

I did a notebook job on the east side of San Antonio and the girls father gets his hair cut where AJ gets his hair cut when in San Antonio. Its a semi famous barber shop on the East side. He said AJ has been communicating with the Spurs off and on to start as a asst. coach then head coach and this man has always been a good source of fresh and accurate inside scoops when it comes to personal info in the Spurs organization even Don Harris knows about it, I just I hope he doesn't get upset me posting this information.

Spur fans........would you be ok with AJ as your coach?

[whottt]

Parker and Duncan to demand trades in 2011?

Or will it be 2012?

[lefty]

Wouate ?

[urunobili]

as an assist to begin with in 2010 i wouldn't mind... post Pop retirement he'll get the job for sure...

[Laker Lanny]

Spurs need a real coach!!

[U.S.A.F.]

AJ will always be the Little General he rocks!! :tu

[I. Hustle]

Spurs need a real coach!!

http://bill.goldschein.name/images/Phil%20Jackson.jpg

Tim Duncan is too old For Phil Jack to try and come over. He only rides the coattails of teams with superstar players in their prime.

[MavTalker]

Good luck! :lmao

[samikeyp]

This place would explode if that happened.

[DPG21920]

Good luck! :lmao

Best times in Mav history was when AJ coached, I do not know what you are laughing at.

I would take Tex Winter over him

[Ditty]

Best times in Mav history was when AJ coached, I do not know what you are laughing at.

i know lol:lmao

if it wasnt for him the spurs would of beat the mavs in 2006

[rayray2k8]

Pop has said he might leave when Duncan calls it quits.
I'd take either 2 coaches. :)

[Ditty]

i think i rather have bud as head coach and pj and avery and maybe bruce bowen for defense as his assistants

[duncan228]

I think Pop will retire when Duncan does, and I think both are done in 2012. I don't think Duncan would play for anyone else, whatever coaching change happens will happen after he's done.

[SA210]

Don Nelson is our coach right now, until I see the old Pop make an appearance.

[50 cent]

Hell no. AJ needs to stay away from this team.

I'm all for Bud taking over.

[TheYesMan]

I'm all for Bud taking over.

Yes

[jag]

I'd really like to see AJ as an assisstant and Budenholzer as the HC.

[SenorSpur]

I'd really like to see AJ as an assisstant and Budenholzer as the HC.

Not going to happen. AJ would never take an assistant job under anyone except Pop. On second thought, I can't see AJ taking another assistant's job period. Especially considering there will be many vacancies open in the next couple of years. Sure AJ has the luxury to "cherry pick", while collecting Cuban's money for the next couple of seasons.

[nkdlunch]

Hell no. AJ needs to stay away from this team.

I'm all for Bud taking over.

we have a winner...

[Wolverine83]

Tim Duncan is too old For Phil Jack to try and come over. He only rides the coattails of teams with superstar players in their prime.

And remember, two future-hall of famers in the starting lineup is the minimum philip needs to win a title. Laverne Odom and Andrea Bynum don't cut it, do they? (Blown out by TMac and Yao-less rockets??? LOL!)

[Biernutz]

I would like to see PJ come back as a assistant.

[nkdlunch]

Umm.. Exactly how many games has coach "bud" won in the NBA?

Played?

Championships won?

Regular season wins as a coach?


Defensive Schemes he has designed...


Playoff wins...

Payoff appearances...?

ZERO

Also he has been stuck as an assistant for what 14 years?

Not only that when other Spurs Personnel...

Ferry,,,,BROWN.....KERR..ect..ect... NONE of them made move to acquire this "prince to the thrown" BUD...You guys realy get some fucked up ideas don't you

:rolleyes :rolleyes

Bud has been assistant coach to winningest team in basketball. He also did coach Spurs to a couple of wins when Pop was out. Not to mention a lot of strategies that Spurs use are really Bud's not Pops.

not to mention that AJ had his chance in the same way Bud would. AJ also choked in the finals and was not able to work Kidd into his team. Dude is a micromanager and control freak.

Bud > AJ

[mytespurs]

Spurs need a real coach!!

http://bill.goldschein.name/images/Phil%20Jackson.jpg

If Phil ever retired, I'm sure POPOVICH would be on the Lakers radar! :hat

[superbigtime]

Please no.

[symple19]

Spurs need a real coach!!

http://bill.goldschein.name/images/Phil%20Jackson.jpg
I'd rather have Isaiah Thomas coach than a classless douche like starfucker phil http://youbeenblinded.com/video-phil-jackson-wants-houston-to-get-some-fg-credit/3083


As for AJ, he'd be fine as an assistant - Emphasis on assistant :flag::lobt2::flag:

[Spursfan092120]

Good luck! :lmao
Never understood why Mavs fans bashed AJ...dude was the only coach who could take you to the Finals...Coach of the Year..and yet you bash him..explain?

[meestahmeestah]

I'm secretly hoping Bruce Bowen retires (as a Spur, hopefully) and is part of the coaching staff long enough to see Duncan and Pop retire and then become HC. I really don't think Bud'll be around long enough to see the big chair.

[Riverwalkman]

I hope Duncan and Pop both retire in 2015.

[Avitus1]

I think AJ can stay at ESPN.

[Spursfan092120]

SPURS TALK thinks AVERY SUX...

WANT COACH 'BUD'


http://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l281/Rodney21a/CoachBUD.gifhttp://i99.photobucket.com/albums/l281/Rodney21a/averyresume.gif

There are the resumes

Conclusion

SPURS TALKED IS LARGELY PEOPLED WITH IDIOTS


PLEASE DON'T TRY TO START YOUR OWN BUSINESS OR BECOME

"LIFE COACHES"











You know..I agree Avery would be a good coach..but damn..you're an asshole. Not EVERY Spurstalk person thinks Avery sucks.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No way this happens. Pop will retire in 2012 with Timmy. I'll worry about the coaching situation in 2011.

[SequSpur]

mouse is a retard

[raspsa]

Who really cares? When Timmy and Manu are gone, the core of Spurs as we know them will cease to exist.. there will be a clean slate to work with.

[KenziE]

I think Pop will retire when Duncan does, and I think both are done in 2012. I don't think Duncan would play for anyone else, whatever coaching change happens will happen after he's done.

very good point as always 228 .... thanks i appreciate you keepin it real all the time props to you

[GSH]

It's for sure I would never watch/listen to another post-game interview. I just can't stand listening to the little troll.

I don't like the way he talked about his team during that Golden State series. A lot of that came down to the battle between AJ and Don Nelson - and AJ lost. He was a young coach - he could have manned up and admitted it. Instead he hung his players out to dry. I can't believe that went unnoticed by other players in the league.

Mario Elie is just about ready for a HC spot. Bring him back. Put Bruce in a suit next season and start grooming him for the job. Convince Robert Horry that his playing days are over, and give him a clipboard. Tell David Robinson that the team and the city needs him one more time. But not Avery Johnson... please. He was already obnoxious enough. Imagine how he would be in the arena where his jersey is hanging. Can you imagine being a player and having to listen to him talk about what he did to get it there?

[raspsa]

I don't know how serious Pop is about retiring with Duncan. He has enough money and personal interests outside of basketball to occupy himself with should he retire. He says he doesn't really enjoy games, rather he appreciates them. So I'm thinking a lot will depend on how the Spurs manage to bridge the gap to the post-Duncan era. If they get some decent talent soon, Pop may appreciate the potential and decide to hang around. But if its a long rebuilding process, I think he'd rather grow grapes.

[PURO SAN ANTO 210!]

Hell try aj when pop's gone!!!!

[SouthTexasRancher]

I did a notebook job on the east side of San Antonio and the girls father gets his hair cut where AJ gets his hair cut when in San Antonio. Its a semi famous barber shop on the East side.

And if LeBron goes off to the bright lights, big city New York, then Mike Brown comes back to SA and takes over as Head Coach when Tim & Pop retire.

Of course Laker Larry, would want us to have Phil Jackson because when the Fakers fail again this year, little Kobe will storm into Dr. Buss's office and DEMAND that Phil gets fired.

[The Truth #6]

After Pop Spurs would be lucky to get AJ. Most coaches are really bad. AJ is a micro-manager, but then so was Pop when he got started. More importantly, AJ has shown an ability to win. He's annoying but he seems to be able to command players' attention. Could Bud do the same...hell no. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but coaching is about egos and alpha dogs and Bud would get ignored.

If Pop and RC don't start planning for current success, much less future success, then it won't matter. If the team falls of the cliff, we might as well rehire Bob Weiss and develop young talent because we'll be a shitty team at that point anyway.

[Obstructed_View]

Ok A coach questions his players confidence because the year before they lost a lead in the FINALS series to LOOSE to the Heat and the follwing year they LOOSE a twenty point lead in the seventh game of the Warriors series and this is trhowing a player under the bus?


Also HOW the FUCK to you know what Avery Johnson would or wouldn't tell a player about ANYTHING?

AJ was also a worse player than Jacque Vaughn. Consider the source.

[Obstructed_View]

nineteen thousand missives on this forum and you come up with this?


Tell me... Do you stick your finger in your ass to smell it and then pass out?

7hqq3bijeha



and in the end it doesn't matter what the fuck you think or i think or anybody in this stinking forum thinks...

Owner gm pop duncan...and now parker...

And you don't have one clue as to what they are thinking

rif


he's an overrated, irritating, egotistical, back-stabbing, piano-keys-for-teeth, troll doll. He was a mediocre point guard, at best, and i honestly don't know if he was ever any better than jacque vaughn was this season. Now that they've retired his jersey, they might as well go ahead and retire vinny del negro's too.

[Obstructed_View]

Okay, you aren't even bothering to read anything. Sorry for thinking you weren't an idiot. Won't happen again. Have fun, douchebag.

[MavTalker]

AJ as coach and Manu as trade bait could be another ring for the Spurs?

[Obstructed_View]

No I did read

"he's an overrated, irritating, egotistical, back-stabbing, piano-keys-for-teeth, troll doll.

Did you read who the quote was from? It happens to be the person who was making a case that AJ shouldn't be the coach, and who you were arguing with. I was telling you not to bother and you threw a hissy of mousical proportions. :lol

yeah..he kind of fucked himself on that one.. :lol

[GSH]

Nope you guys are just to retarded to use the tools correctly or use your EYES to see...

How about constructing phrases and thoughts that cannot be miss interpreted



Miss Interpreted? Is that someone we should know? Or is it like Miss Congeniality? How about using the tools (spell checker) correctly? Or just using your eyes to see? Or maybe you just wrote a phrase that I mis-interpreted?

AJ got out-coached in that Golden State series. A good leader says "the buck stops here". AJ didn't do that. You connect the dots.

How do I know what AJ would talk about? Because AJ's favorite subject is... AJ. Like I said in that same thread you quoted:
When the Spurs won the first Championship, AJ got up and talked about AJ.
When David's jersey got retired, AJ got up and talked about AJ.
When his own number got retired, AJ gut up and talked about AJ.
When the Mavs played good, AJ talked about AJ.
It was only when they got bitch-slapped in the first round that he suddenly noticed the players on his team.

It's not just that he questioned his players - some of them deserved it. But he wants to take credit for the good, and pass the buck for the bad. And whether you like it or not, the single biggest deciding factor in that series was the coaches. There's no shame in it - Nelson is a great basketball mind, and he's been around forever. Plus he had all that inside knowledge of the Mavs. But AJ dumped it all at the feet of his players. He annoyed me before. But I lost respect for him after that.

And, frankly, if his players really all quit on him, it is still probably a reflection on him.

[jag]

Get bent you fool

There's always a guy like you who's new to spurstalk, acts like a moron and thinks he has some spectacular insight into what the Spurs should and shouldnt be doing. People are only giving their opinions, so i'm not sure why it hurts your feelings that a lot of people here dont like AJ.

I, for one, like AJ...i just think he has an abrasive personality that people are only going to respect if he wins titles. Pop couldnt continue to act the way he does and have players respect him if didnt have titles to back it up with.

I think Bud would make a great coach...he's heady, he's more of a psychologist like Pop, than a drill sergeant like AJ. He's also been around to see the good and the bad over the last 14 years. Pop has basically been his coaching mentor...and that obviously carries weight with a lot of people around the NBA.

"Consider the source" means exactly what it said. If you haven't been here long enough to remember a thread about AJ from the previous day then maybe you shouldn't be posting as though you know everything in the world, or at very least taking advice from people who are watching you barking up the AJ tree with GSH. Certainly going off on the wrong person just because you've got your hackles raised by the discussion makes you look like a retard. I guess we'll have to call you KBP Junior for your unapologetic and badly-worded retort.

If you don't know what that means, fucking look it up, newbie.

[koriwhat]

fuck aj! he's a little bitch!

[JWest596]

Pop will retire as head coach soon after Duncan retires. Pop has an appreciation that's there's a life out there other than basketball.

Let PJ be an assistant at any time. Bud IMHO, is the heir apparent. Spurs reward loyalty and he has more than payed his dues if another team doesn't try to nab him before.

AJ is a great emotional motivated passionate coach but his players eventually start to tune out and he becomes ineffective. A "Little General" goes a long way. If a Spurs coaching position, he'll need to realize this. It's a big weakness of AJ's. He ends up rubbing people the wrong way and alienating them and the team. When that happens, it's over. He's one Spur's player who never got over himself and for some that's not a bad thing either.

What gets lost here I think is that Spurs have had their finest decade because of same coaching/system continuity. Teams that play musical chairs with coaches never do well long term. That's why I favor Bud for the long term. I think RC and Mr. Holt understand this as well.

[hater]

Rodney take AJ's cock out of your mouth when you post

[GSH]

Nothing like an intelligent post to get people to see both sides. You're probably right - if AJ actually won titles, I'm sure I would back off somewhat. I think it would still irritate me to listen to him, but I would probably still listen. And, yeah, some of the dry humor and charm of Pop's interviews might be overlooked if our record over the last 10 years looked like, say, the Clippers.

I can appreciate that other people like AJ. I personally think a lot of that is nostalgia, but there's nothing wrong with that either. If AJ became the Spurs' coach, they would be happy and people like me would be annoyed. That's the breaks. All I did was give my opinion, just like everyone else.

One thing I didn't mention before - I think AJ undermined and pissed on Don Nelson. And I happen to be a big Don Nelson fan. He's innovative, and unafraid, and he makes the game fun to watch. I think AJ was a treacherous little bastard who didn't want to pay his dues as an assistant. And I thought that Nelson handled it with dignity, but he also made a point of showing AJ why he wasn't ready to be HC.

One thing I absolutely stand by - if you Photoshop some long hair onto a picture of Avery Johnson, he looks exactly like a troll doll.

+1

I'd rather see continuity and stay within the same structure. I think working for the team for 14 years gives him a heads up on everybody.

[step up to the mike]

You're team is in the midst of yet ANOTHER Marc Cuban Public Fiasco..and you STILL BLAME Avery with shit you've heard ...half truths and whispers and you're own perceptions become DOGMA? That's why you're city COWBOYS...RANGERS...MAVS...won't WIN SHIT...

and as I've said before... Matters WHat Pop, Rc, Tim and Tony Say...

Here is the proof

So assassinate a mans character with you're perceived half truths filtered through you're obtuse minds all you want

when it comes to character Reference I think Avery is GOOD with the Organization..

Furthermore, if Avery Doesn't interview for any opening coaching positions this summer..especially ORLANDO(yep Ron Jeremy is about to get the hook AGAIN..) Then its sure as shit that he is going to come back to the organization... with all you guys kicking and screaming...


Way to step up! :tu

Solid take :toast

[GSH]

AJ was just on ESPN and said that the Lakers were going to win Game 7 against the Rockets. And who did he say would be the key player, the big differenece maker for the Lakers? Wait for it... wait for it....

Yep... Paul Gasol. That's right folks, it's Paul's team now. I don't know how the other people on the show could keep a straight face.


One more thing I don't remember anyone saying in this discussion: I hope none of you favoring AJ as Pop's replacement are Tony Parker fans. Because I can just about guarantee you that after a year of working for AJ, Parker will be looking for a trade. And AJ will be lobbying to give it to him. Don't forget to stick that into your equation.

[Obstructed_View]

Who the fuck is Paul Gasol?
