    Come on people, he's one of the best in the league. Your all going to regret it, just like all those broncos fans that were pissed when they hired Kubiak because he was "Texans Trash".
    This guy is going to change his legacy just like Kubiak and Rick carliel.

    What he did in 2004-5 is irrelevant. Since leaving the Suns he's hasn't done much

    He's not going to be a disaster like many think, but he's certainly not going to be a savior, which is what we needed. Should have aspired for more.

    Ironic you used that analogy. Only reason Kubiak had good years was because of Wade Phillips. D'Antoni could hire JVG as defensive assistant and he still would suck as HC.

    Mike Brown, Byron Scott also made the list. They all fall in the same category. Flash in the pan has-beens discarded by the league with their last failed run being with the Lakers.

    Trash fire

    I am perfectly fine with this hire. It is an upgrade, and what Le$ wants, either he is succesful and that is good, or he fails and Le$ realizes he should stay the hell out of it, and that is good.

    You're are dealing in extremes and absolutes. I'm thinking a more multiple 14th pick type future.
