2693066, We already knew both of those guys were placeholders

2693070, None of the three firings make much sense
Posted by mrhood75, Thu Apr-11-19 06:45 PM
It's not like the Cavs or the Grizz were under-performing; they were always going to be bad, and they'll likely be bad next year too. Their coaches were first year guys who didn't get a chance to really do anything.
And the Joerger move is weird too. For already stated reasons.
Unless these guys have hot shit candidates in mind that they firmly believe will turn the team around, what's the point here?

2693079, There isn't one....

Bad ownership.......bad organizations.

what's the point
>here?
showing season ticket holders that management cares and is pro-active is one reason.

2693094, So dumb, man...they just signed JB to an extension, last year...

2693424, Bickerstaff was a placeholder
Posted by hardware, Mon Apr-15-19 01:33 PM
i mean, he just was. i didn't think it mattered what his record ended up being unless we made the 'offs.

2693087, Tanks For The Memories, Larry

In your process, we trusted. You delivered.
It was a mutual parting from what I hear.

2693153, Luke gone

2693157, Unfortunately for Luke, he got his dream job too early
Posted by mrhood75, Fri Apr-12-19 03:47 PM
He’s not a bad coach; he’s very good at developing young players. But as soon as the script got flipped to “YOU HAVE TO WIN RIGHT NOW WITH LEBRON AND MICHAEL BEASLEY AND LANCE STEPHENSON!” he was in over his head and pretty much cooked.
He’ll probably land in Sacramento. Or he could pretty easily get a college job. Outside chance he comes back to the Warriors.
|
2693163, I think he'd do well in Sac w/their current roster
Posted by GOMEZ, Fri Apr-12-19 05:39 PM

2693165, Eh, was never impressed with his rotations or minutes distribution
Posted by DJR, Fri Apr-12-19 06:58 PM
I thought that might improve with experience, but it didn’t.

2693155, Sounds like Boylen is going to stay in Chicago
Posted by Marauder21, Fri Apr-12-19 03:38 PM
How does the Leadership Council feel?

2693156, Ugh...*Prays to the Basketball Gods*
Posted by auragin_boi, Fri Apr-12-19 03:42 PM
"Please let us get a top 2 pick!"
If it ain't Zion or Ja, not sure if they'll get this one right. I guess Coby White would make sense.
But we legit have every position covered but PG. Strange draft season for the Bulls. Not sure what we do if we don't end up 1-2.
But we'll need to have enough talent to win in spite of our coaching/front office.
To be fair, Boylen wasn't doing a 'horrible' job later in the season but...he wouldn't be my 5th choice if we were trying to hire a coach right today.

2693160, Cavs coaching preferences...
Posted by Kira, Fri Apr-12-19 04:18 PM
I want Luke as option A. He did a damn good job with the Lakers and is a fine NBA head coach. He's just what we need because he develops young players.
Dave Joerger did great in Sacremento. It's not his fault they play out west..
Jason Kidd did great in Milwaukee. Ownership pulled the plug too soon.
|
2693169, seems like they picked the perfect time

2693167, You already know, they have another job waiting for them, black coaches...
Posted by ThaTruth, Fri Apr-12-19 07:05 PM
have to go back to being an assistant or do TV

2693231, I Heard Some Media Blaming Lebron and Magic for Luke's Record
Posted by RexLongfellow, Sat Apr-13-19 05:25 PM
smh
Meanwhile, other black coaches can't get a sniff

2693422, oh they always make an excuse for them

2693164, Expected, I guess.

2693432, If Luke doesnt' in fact suck, this is a good fit
Posted by GOMEZ, Mon Apr-15-19 03:15 PM
It's like a Jr. Golden State squad in some ways, and could play in a style similar to what he coached/learned w/Kerr and crew. This year's Lakers roster didn't play to his strengths as a coach (or exposed weaknesses).
I hope he's actually a good coach because I like the squad he's inheriting.

2693420, oh...

He's ice-grilling dude...you can tell in his mind he's saying to himself "bitch ass nigga"...lol
|
2693433, He can suck a bag of dicks on his way out the door.
Posted by TheRealBillyOcean, Mon Apr-15-19 03:19 PM
Fuck him.
Pride over winning.
Marv should’ve been playing.

2694092, honestly, the only reason I know is because we played them...

2694098, me either lol
Posted by ThaTruth, Tue Apr-23-19 11:19 AM
|
2694090, This makes me think they hired him to coach Luka
Posted by Marauder21, Tue Apr-23-19 09:48 AM
Who Sarver was never going to let them draft anyway.
Remember when this was a model organization in the NBA and everyone wanted to emulate them and they had a training staff of miracle workers?
|
2694093, lol, yes....Blake almost went there for their healing powers

@ShamsCharania
Philadelphia assistant Monty Williams has agreed to a five-year deal to become the new head coach of the Phoenix Suns, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA
@Stadium
.
LOL @ a five year deal with THAT franchise. Maybe he'll actually last two.
|
2695053, good for him but this obviously wont end well.
Posted by Reeq, Fri May-03-19 03:03 PM
hopefully dude got a timeshare or something.
|
2695054, how the hell did Sarver swing this
Posted by HecticHavoc, Fri May-03-19 04:28 PM
Monty probably saw past this awful scumbag and sees the potential talent and young core that is VERY promising.

Posted by cgonz00cc, Tue May-14-19 09:07 AM
if i were you id be over the moon. my friends and family and I are ALL grieving hard as shit lol
you got THE best possible teacher for Sexton.
every PG Michigan has had since 2010 played in the league, and none of them were recruits above the ~50 range. he's gonna turn the juice up to 11 on the Sexton-Love PnR/PnP.
however i AM gonna laugh hard as shit if yall take Jordan Poole in the 2nd

2696111, Wolves interviewing Juwan howard
Posted by Marauder21, Tue May-14-19 09:00 AM
I like that Rosas isn't 100% committed to keeping Ryan Saunders (though I still think he'll ultimately get it.)
