What if Pop got fired for playing Tony while he was playing like and that intentional fouling that cost us a game and likely the series? No one is expecting that.
Hopefully Wittman
0 chance it's B.Scott. He said all the right things Laker fans wanted to hear. He has Magic's eternal support and he's a pretty good tank commander.
McHale is not getting fired.
I have friends who think McHale is a good coachYou need to find some new friends
I'm hoping and praying it's that got Quitters. His ego and incompetence will kill this franchise if left unchecked.
The Lakers can't tank anymore when Philly has their pick.
He's also the Clippers President of basketball ops, isn't he? Can't be him.
It's Top 3, but I see what you're saying.
I don't think it will be McHale (I said so jokingly earlier). I think Rockets have proven they believe in him with his contract and they just reached the WCF.
I can maybe think of Karl. They may want to make a push for the playoffs and their owner has proven to be most impatient.
Like I said, they still needed a very bad Clipper moment to even get to the conference finals. The Clippers were easily a better team than the Rockets.
Doc Rivers probably. We haven't heard much from the Clipper organization since that unheralded collapse.
Why not?
He should be fired as GM for certain. Maybe with a real one, he could have gotten to the conference finals and given Golden State a more legit challenge.
Les Alexander doesn't fire coaches.
That meeting of the suits after the Clippers loss makes me think Flopping Doc is on the Chopping Block. Putting his son out there, emphasizing how he needs more minutes, that disgusted look on Ballmer's face, knowing that Ballmer wants ROI. Doc is probably gone. If Jordan walks, Doc won't be there to care.
You mean like Jeff Van Gundy? Or Rudy T? Oh, that's right, he just left on his own accord.
Did he give those coaches an extension before firing them?
Everyone that isnt a Clippers fan is hoping its Doc Rivers. He deserves it. Acts like he's an all time great coach but crumbles under pressure.
McHale just got an extension so maybe not him. PLUS he coached an already left for dead Rockets to the WCF.
McHale wouldn't be the first coach in history to be given an extension before getting fired. Even the University of Houston and it's relatively tiny budget, fired Tony Levine after giving him an extension before the start of the next season.
Nah he doesn't even call the plays.
Anyone really watching that team knows they made it there on talent alone. The Rockets made it there on having a dominant big man (by modern standards), an MVP-caliber guard and shooting a bunch of 3's. The effort and basketball IQ simply were not there way too often. That they were even compe ive with the Warriors 4/5 games was a major shock.
Go grab Rick Adelman and see if he wants to give it another go. He's the most hard luck great coach in NBA history.
I understand your being pissed off at McFail right now... who wouldn't. But, at the beginning of the year...how far did you think this team would go? Did you think you'd be in the WCF?
1st Round.
