Yeah they need more run and gun green lighting.
Sources tell ESPN.com's Marc Stein that San Antonio assistant coach Ettore Messina is a candidate on OKC GM Sam Presti's radar. Messina (pictured next to Becky Hammon) has long been regarded as Europe's most successful coach in addition to his Spurs ties

Hopefully they nab Boylen tbh .
can't imagine Messina going from the Spurs to Westbrook, tbh..
If messina is smart, he wouldn't go for it. I love KD and Westbrook but they are two of the hardest guys to coach in the league...
Westbrook and Messina seems an unlikely pairing. Just some carefully planted noise to expedite a decision by his preferred candidate.
If we let them get Boylen, it would be an even better sabotage to that team than them having Brooks! Boylen can forget he has Westbrook during games and recommend Ayres as their starting big over Ibaka! Come on, Presti, get Boylen!!!!!
Maybe they will take Hammon
Once the season is over, coach Messina should listen at the offer, tbh... might be a great chance for him, regardless of perceived fit...
They should hire Robert Horry.
They should just hire Westbrook tbh
Please take him.
you dont like messina? why?
No mention of Ollie? I know he's not likely but they are pursuing him too and KD/WB both found him influential.
Since you've coached neither of them I don't see how you'd know that. I'd think they are both very easy to coach, they have a ton of talent and with the right guidance they could be champs, and they know it. Great players want to be coached by someone who they know can get them there. Very few want to go it on their own.
I totally expected this to be the first reply to the topicMaybe they will take Hammon
They can get Matt Bonner next year
Me too, thats why I posted itI totally expected this to be the first reply to the topic
Messina has already said that he wasn't going to the Spurs as a stepping stone for a bigger position elsewhere, but that he was committed to the organization over the long-haul.
Well, he's not Europe's more successful coach by any means. That would be Obradovic.
Actually Messina lost step in his last seasons in Europe. His tenure as Real Madrid coach and his second stint in CSKA Moscow were very disappointing.
I just don't think he added anything, and he's currently penciled in as Pop's successor. I think that would be a horrible move. No way do I want Messina coaching the next gen of Spurs. He'd probably run them into the ground.
Please yes and take beli with you
would be great if manu is the next coach.
