    Why don't any of the guys who have been with the team much, much longer get thought of as the new lead assistant.

    As to those who downplay the role of the assistants: Pop's assistant coaches get to do more and have more input than probably any other team in the NBA.

    NBA: Sonics will hire Carlesimo

    Web Posted: 07/03/2007 06:02 PM CDT

    Johnny Ludden
    Express-News Staff Writer

    The Seattle SuperSonics have decided to hire P.J. Carlesimo as their new head coach, an NBA source said Tuesday evening.

    Carlesimo has spent the previous five seasons as an assistant on the staff of Spurs coach Gregg Popovich.

    Seattle’s new owner, Clay Bennett -- a former member of the Spurs’ ownership group -- has tried to use the Spurs as a blueprint to remake the Sonics. Last month, Bennett hired Spurs assistant general manager Sam Presti to oversee the Sonics’ front office.

    Seattle is expected to announce Carlesimo’s hiring Wednesday afternoon.

    What about bringing back Terry Porter as an assistant? Is he still coaching?

    I always got the impression that Pop consults with Budenholzer more than anyone else, at least for in game strategy.

    Cuban has to give him the $6.5 mil first or it just wouldn't feel right.

    Congrats to PJ.

    Some expect Pop to just slide over Don Newman to the lead assistant coach role. I wonder if that's going to be what happens or if the Spurs will look to bring in a new lead assistant from the outside.
    Jeff Van Gundy?

    I'm not crazy about the idea of bringing JVG in...he and Pop would try to win games by scores of 1-0. There'd be no stopping that out of control defensive mindset.

    Hey why not Hubie Brown?

    All in all I think the spurs need somebody new with some new concepts of the game.

    you deserve it coach.

    with Durant a possible next NBA player to make a big impact in the future, and Sam Presti.. that's a good news.

    thanks God Ray Allen is no longer with the team. I can cheer for your success coach

    Van Gundy's comments during the Finals were terrible, he doesn't have a clue!

    One thing's for sure - if ever there was a team tailor-made to do that, it is the Spurs. With Duncan caring about winning more than stats, it would be an easy sell to get buy-in when The Man endorses it.

    Plus, they've already pulled bits and pieces of it out to use - it wouldn't be an entirely new system - even for guys not named Manu and Oberto.

    Is Don Newman considered lead assistant-caliber?
    I don't think so and I hope they bring in someone new.

    Can't wait till we play Seattle in the playoffs so we can see all the homers turn on PJ and call him a traitor and every other name in the book like they did to AJ and Mike Brown.
