Coaching carousel: who should get which job?

[spursistan]

Free Agent Coaches :Tom Thibodeau, Scott Brooks, Kevin Mchale, Mark Jackson, David Blatt , Jeff Hornacek, Brian Shaw, Lionel Hollins,
Likely Available in the market: Luke Walton, Ettore Messina?, Jeff Van Gundy?, Monty Williams?
Teams with (likely) coaching Vacancies: Lakers, Rockets, Nets, Knicks, Wolves, Wizards?, Kings?, Memphis?


Summer coaching free agency is going to be more active than the players , tbh...Wolves maybe best job from young talent-standpoint..

[spursistan]

my predictions..

Lakers: Scottie Brooks
Rockets: Thibs
Knicks: Walton
Nets: Blatt
Wolves: Joerger
Kings: Hornacek

[Fabbs]

my predictions..
Knicks: Walton

I would say Phils Zen Feriltizer spreading would work on Walton but, I'm sure he has seen how it turned out for Kerr. I think Kerr helps talk Walton out of it but who knows?

I look for Walton to return to his Flamer roots in L.A.

[Cry Havoc]

Why *wouldn't* the Knicks hire Thibs? Great, proven coach who can bring younger players along.

I just want the Lakers to get Mark Jackson.

Walton isn't ready for a head coaching job but he's 3x as ready as Fisher was.

Thibs is the only non-shit coach on the list, maybe Blatt but that's pushing it.

[DMC]

I just want the Lakers to get Mark Jackson.
You don't want that. He'll build a team for a few years, get embarrassed in the playoffs and Steve Nash will come and win the Finals the year following his release.

Kerr won the ring last year, Bud won the CotY. Both are from the Spurs. Pop's coaching tree (above) goes all the way back to Phog Allen and on to Naismith. How's Byron's coaching tree? Is there a rope tied to it yet?

I've always wanted brooks to develop the youngn or walton. thibs in houston would be a disaster, harden is the antithesis of what Thibs stands for.

[Spurs9]

Good time to be q coach, if you get fired uou collect a couple of years checks for doing nothing. As good as when Brandon Roy got amnestied and got pqid out

I'd be shocked if Thibs goes to New York..he clashed with Chicago's front office, I doubt he'll be cool with Dolan interfering with personnel moves, and Phil insisting that he plays the triangle..it'll probably be somebody from Phil's pathetic coaching tree:lol

If I'm Thibs, I hold out for Minnesota..the core is young enough to play huge minutes, and they have the personnel to run his vanilla offense..

Nice idea. He'd have have to jettison Rubio. He is not NBA caliber. Not by a jugful. If he doesn't do that he might as well stay on the rocking chair.

JVG over Thibs in my opinion. I want to see him coaching so we don't have to hear him on the side saying senile shit. He's really jumped the shark.

[spursistan]

721766806529142785

so no Messina or Udoka...

[gambit1990]

would like thibs to go east.

[Biggems]

So, Thread, who would you like the Lakers to go after once the vacancy is official? Thibs is a great defensive coach, but his one issue is overplaying his core to the point of leaving them with minimal in the tank for the postseason. Walton did a great job with the Warriors for half a season, but that team was already a Championship team and had basically the same roster, which included the league MVP. Still, if he could incorporate a similar style of play with the Lakers, with all their youth, he could start to build something. Of course, he would need to add about 3 more quality wing players.

Beacuse Thibs as been mentioned wants full control and the Rockets won't give it to him..JVG has gotten away from day-to-day coaching for too long (last coached 2007) and there is risk the game might have passed him by..

My guy cyberx just posted JVG isn't really interested in coaching the Rockets because of his relationship with the owner, is bad. Glad he won't be coming, but that owner is still a snake.

They are interviewing 15 people, plus college coaches. They are waiting for Vogel.

[djohn2oo8]

I wouldn't mind Cassell getting a shot.

[djohn2oo8]

Among the NBA candidates with whom the Rockets are working to set up interviews are former Phoenix Suns coach Jeff Hornacek and Charlotte Hornets assistant Stephen Silas, league sources said. There could be 10-15 – perhaps even more – candidates interviewed in the process, league sources said.

[djohn2oo8]

The Rockets are beginning to line up candidates in what promises to be a wide-ranging coaching search, league sources told The Vertical.
Houston owner Les Alexander and general manager Daryl Morey met with Bickerstaff on Tuesday, as well as Los Angeles Clippers assistant coach Sam Cassell and Houston assistant Chris Finch, league sources said.

Still could be his job. Though they prefer Vogel over JVG.

If JB Bickerstaff doesn't remain with the Rockets in any capacity he could join the Los Angeles Lakers coaching staff. Bickerstaff has a good relationship with newly hired coach Luke Walton. — Calvin Watkins

I am sooooooo glad my team is not shitty like the Rockets or any of these coachless teams. I am not surprised at Bickerstaff's not wanting to come back. You have a shitty me-first cancer player in Harden and just an atrocious human being in Howard leading the team and to top that off you have some incompetent piece of shit owner..and still none of this trumps being from Houston or having any sort of affiliation with that shithole. I love watching that franchise rot, they thought they had it all a few years ago..fucking retards:lmao.

Hornacek did a great job with the abortion of a roster he was given in Phoenix. I don't blame him for the Morris twins being faggots, and he'd be a guy I'd want if I was Rocket fan.
