If it's not Thibs, I wouldn't mind going for Etore Messina, I think he would do some good things (being one of Pops top and longest tenured assistants). When Adelman left, I wanted Budenholzer for that exact same reason, but he declined to even interview for the position at all. For some reason, he (Bud) was just dead set against coming here.
Jokes aside i think he's not a fan of Corey, he's just not a good defender, sometimes i think he's pretty bad in fact, he's just not able to stay in front of his man with consistency, he gambles too much, doesn't know how to switch decently...he hustle at least.
I don't care if Rockets win it all, let alone take the Warriors to 6/7, don't want him back under any condition. Sign Thibs and they will come.
It's really simple to me. If JB leads the Rockets to the biggest playoff upset in NBA history, the job is his. Otherwise, you hire Thibs(assuming he wants the gig of course).
Thibs must be licking his chops at the thought of coaching KAT and that young Wolves team. Would not shock me if he signs with Minny.

Scott Brooks is basically another McHale. Know clue how to manage a rotation and questionable in game coaching. That said, if the Rockets FO thinks Brooks is the key to landing Durant, you obviously hire that man.
Thibs would be awesome, Brooks would only be bearable if he helps us land Durant, otherwise no thank you. He is another McHale.
Can't wait for the Thibs vs. Morey battles over player moves and offensive strategy. My gut tells me Les will ultimately tell Morey to take a hike if things get too heated. I've heard Morey is on the hot seat.
Mmm.... Why? If that's all a player considers to choose his destiny, dont bring that r****ded to my team. Fortunately Durant does not look too dumb so will make a thoughtful decision. Big difference between him and Thibodeau and very different profile. Thibs is not perfect, but is what this team needs. If Morey is really considering to sign Brooks, Les must fire him before.
Lol at people thinking coaches never learn from prior experiences. Do you guys really think Thibs is so set in his ways that he would run Harden to the ground at the experience of ruining his career...or that Les and Morey can't learn from their mistakes and co-exist with a disciplinarian over a players coach? Give these humans some more credit for Christ sake. Thibs would be an excellent hire from any objective standpoint.
