    Out of sheer curiosity I was wondering if any of the posters on this board are basketball coaches or have ever been basketball coaches. I don't mean coaching your kid's pee-wee game, I mean a legitimate, professional (as in paid to coach because that is your career) basketball coach?

    Really, how good could any active professional coach be if he spends time posting on message boards?

    I think Solid D coached when they still had bottoms in the peach baskets, though.

    You could be a junior high or high school coach and take an interest in the Spurs - the season's been over for most Texas teams for a while now and over for the best of the best for about 3 weeks.

    I was just curious to see if anyone here has game experience at any level. Interesting.

    I thought of suing Bobby Knight after he threw that chair for stealing my M.O. if that means anything to you.

    Get 8 jokes for every 2 serious responses?

    Is it the question or the people answering that's driving that ratio?

    I was actually offered the job as Spurs GM prior to Pop...in fact it was me that reccomended him for the job. Alas I had just gotten out of school and wasn't ready to settle down in a boring job like NBA basketball coach.

    Thus I feel totally qualified to be critical of him...

    Not a coach, but was a statistician/sportswriter for my JUCO before going on to study journalism, then becoming a paid statistician/sportswriter for The Sun of Yuma for over five years.

    Not coaching, but still lots of analysis. Sat right next to two of the country's best JUCO coaches (both mens and womens programs finished top-10 several times while I covered them) for over two years and then talked with them weekly when I returned after college. Seen it all and seen how the coaches respond.

    I'm actually Isaiah Thomas. Why? Do you have a big load of highly-price crap you're looking to trade? I'm sure I can pull some strings.

    The misspelling of your name, Isiah, is telling.

    I'm just a writer/reporter, but I coached inner city basketball in South Central LA for 15-18 year old boys for four years if that counts for anything.

    I've never coached basketball in my life, which is why it's so frustrating that I could do a better job with the rotation than the current coach of the Spurs.


    That's what you're driving at, right? I guess Kurt Cobain is a better guitar player than Bugs Henderson because he's sold more records.

    This makes sense as you're one of the few people on here that I think knows a lot about the game.

    That means she spent four years yelling "Pass the ball, mutha a!"
