"Should Udoka have waited?" Mon May-15-23 03:38 AM by allStah
He is an outstanding coach in my opinion, but it’s going to be a tough task coaching a highly young and inexperienced team in the Houston Rockets. And Kevin Porter is a huge knucklehead.
Bucks and Suns both have a coaching vacancy, and I imagine the Sixers will have one soon. All three teams have the pieces in place to compete for a championship. Had Udoka waited he would have easily been the top candidate for any one of those vacancies.
However, no one can predict or forecast the future, so I’m sure he was just eager to get back into the NBA. So once the Houston job became vacant, he immediately jumped on it
I’m not saying he will not have success in Houston, but it’s going to be a tall, tall task… but if anyone can do it, he can.

hindsight is 20/20 but the chances of a better gig opening up were high
Imget he is just trying to rebuild his rep but I think more teams would’ve given him a shot.

I don’t blame him for jumping at the first offer but I bet he is like “cotdamn” after seeing teams dump coaches

had nothing to do with coaching or lackluster results.

Udoka is 45...could be coaching for the next 20+ years or so. Spending 4 years in Houston ain't like he's wasting his prime years or anything. He can rebuild his rep whether or not the Rox suck. Or if he's actually as good as we all expect...he can have the Rox exceeding expectations.
-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

14. "yeah.. Boston moved away from him" In response to Reply # 13
but I think more teams would have called because he is a good coach.
if he turns the Rockets around then sure.. but if he doesn’t because they don’t have the talent..
just sayin’
can’t tell the future but Sixers would’ve called him the moment the buzzer sounded in Boston.
