    tilman can offer a discount at the golden nugget.

    If the clippers offer him the job tomorrow we may not get a chance to interview him on Sunday, just like doc/sixers.

    I’m 50/50 on Lue.

    The only reason I’m leaning towards him is because I think it was @treyk3 who touched on this.

    Hiring Lue would do wonders for the media narrative surrounding James and the rockets. It’s just important as hiring the right coach and also somebody who will change the media narrative around the rockets.

    Doc would of did this as well and the only person left would prolly be JVG.

    I know screw the media and their bias and winning would cure all but I think it could only help.

    Just like SAS he’s always standing up for Harden and defending him and he talks highly of Tilman.

    It goes a long way. But like I said I’m 50/50

    Lue is an equal coach to Doc in my view but comes without a long term possibility of being the face the franchise. I don't want him. He's expensive too. Balmer hopefully offers up the Windows 95 truck.

    Doc was the one "face saving" hire that intrigued me. He's just that powerful in the NBA. He's not that great of a coach. Give me a fresh face that didn't just whiff a 3-1 lead.

    Kenny, Finch, Silas or Dave.

    Winning a championship with Russ and Kenny would be the ultimate **** you to Durant and I'm here for it.

    Two head jobs in two nights for Lue? He’s really getting a lot of action this weekend.

    He’s meeting with the Rockets on Sunday for a head job. Will Tillman be taking care of that personally?

    No parties go for a job interview on Sundays if they are serious about it.
