    Walton: "So first, you get your shooters into good positions with screens."

    Murray: "Shooters...so you want us to run screens for Corey?"

    *Walton falls in faint*

    Does this mean Woj needs to be turned into Crying Jordan?


    Beggars cant be choosers



    You dont run screens for Corey...Corey screens the run.

    Do we think that this is the one from the remaining coaches that Harden prefers?

    Please no. We need a rule enforcer and disciplinarian type coach. I would much prefer JVG over this guy. Anybody could have coached GSW this year and gotten good result. Don't fall for that sh**.

    if Morey picks JVG over this guy, he'd be making a mistake.

    Man I really really hope that he is impressive in the interview. I'm not 100% sold, but if anyone MIGHT have potential for elite coaching, it might be this guy.

    Alvin Gentry didn't get to bring Curry, Thompson & Green [& the Warriors roster] with him. Neither does Luke.

    What you talking about. Harrison Barnes is coming with the Max, setting themselves up for even more potential Warriors humiliation.

    "Ahhhh, look at them, so cute, they think they're the Warriors now."

    There's just so much uncertainty with Luke. That Warriors team just has an unbelievable personnel. I don't see how we can match that.

    I don't think Luke Walton is ready yet to be HC. Still, it's a good idea to interview him to pick his brain, ask how his ideal system would be ran and what he looks in his players.

    So we interviewing and JBB has not been fired yet? I thought there was some type of code among coaches not to interview if position is currently filled.
