    Sterling has been banned for life, and fined the maximum amount. Everybody in the NBA are against Sterling, our commissioner made it very clear that he will try his best to get him to sell the team.

    He's in LA, has a top 5 team in the league, Doc isn't going anywhere in my opinion.

    Ideally? Doc Rivers leaves Clippers, Phil Jackson leaves Knicks.

    More realistically? JVG or Karl

    Bring back JVG. He loves Houston and he lives here. Easy choice.

    JVG is overrated. Have people forgotten when he coached Houston before?

    JVG is not a player enough coach for this rockets team... He'll have harden and Dwight demanding for a trade

    If you're the Rockets FO, you have to go all in for Thibs. Do whatever it takes to get him back to Houston, this time as the head coach.

    I think Chris Finch and Nevada Smith are outside shots, to be completely honest. Morey had the ability to hire a coach with more experience and he chose McHale because Morey gets to control more. Unless he can persuade a more experienced, well respected coach to give Morey more control than they're used to, I'm not sure if the coaches being mentioned will be hired.

    JVG never had a team this talented. Yao and T-Mac were great, but that 2007 team that fell to Utah had no bench outside of Head and Howard(Juwan, not Dwight).

    My top choice is Thibs if he becomes available, same with Doc Rivers.

    After that Sloan, Karl or Hollins.

    Guys Sloan would need a wheel chair, JVG isn't coming back, Karl is the second best fit behind Stan Van Gundy.
