Some gushing quotes from that article to be sure:

"He is the real deal," a source told Pingalore. "There aren't many coaches out there like this guy who comes from a phenomenal franchise."

"He's (Budenholzer) a can't miss," said an NBA executive.

Hate to lose another cog but there are worse things than coaching in Orlando FL tbh.

That would make the following teams connected to the pipeline:
Thunders
Hawks
Hornets
Magic
Nets

Not bad.

That would be pretty crazy. Be weird to see Pop coaching without Bud next to him.

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.

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.

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.
