    Kelvin Sampson is the guy.

    The heart fled this team when that guy was stolen away by the Coogs.

    If I were him, I'd stay put for that second ring with the Warriors, too.

    I don't know anything about Luke Walton, but my guess is that because of his pop he's a good communicator, a good leader, knows basketball, and a players coach all at the same time. I have to admit, there's a lot to like for someone who one could say was handed a championship team. Unproven in a lot of ways. Yet I think he will be a great coach. I think David Blatt could be a great coach too.

    Not... unless you plan to change the current roster. This roster won't fit to his schemes.

    Look at boston man. U need a great play caller. A great mind. Not a lucky coach with talent. You need a guy like thibs.

    Ugh. Hell no.

    We need to call Shane. That's right, Mr. Battier.

    I'm not sure Luke Walton is going to be a great HC.

    He was put in the best situation possible to look great. Personally I think JB would have done the same thing with those Warriors and we all no what his limitations are on the side line.

    That team runs itself because it is a full of a bunch of highly skilled smart players not athletes like we have.

    It just doesn't matter as many people think considering the number of " move the needle" type of coaches. "Systems" and "philosophies" are mostly buzz words, especially on this forum.

    Is the entire warrior team comong with him? He'd do no better than derek fisher, or JB Bick right now if he inherited this mess of a superstar in james harden.

    Thibs isn't a great offensive mind. Brad Stevens is the guy that is truly a great coach on both sides of the ball.

    Luke Walton will not be an effective head coach of any team that has players who played against him and remember his scrubiness.
