    I’m moving Lue to tier 2 and ahead of JVG. I want to see if LeBron carried him. I think I underrated him because of LeBron. He has a lot to prove.

    Damn, that would suck. We need a legit offensive coach for this system. Someone needs to figure out how to make Westbrook not look like **** when defenses key in during the playoffs. I guess part of that key is Westbrook being able to make a 3 on occasion.

    MDA is getting tossed into the bushes out back...might as well give someone like Finch a shot than to just settle for the old retread coach

    His hype is done. He swung for the fences and whiffed badly.

    I like it!

    Mine would be:
    Tier 1: Lue, Atkinson
    Tier 2: JVG, Silas

    I don't think it goes beyond that point since there's only 4 nba vacancies so we'd be sure to land one of them.

    Morey's list is probably:
    Tier 1: JVG, Silas (wanted them in 2016)
    Tier 2: Lue, Atkinson

    Tilman's list is probably:
    Tier 1: Lucas, Silas, vanterpool, Unseld, Cassell, me, you, his son. whoever is cheapest.
    Tier 2: Lue, JVG, Atkinson, anyone else who wants a 7 figure salary.

    He is a lifer.

    If he cannot get a head coaching job right now, what is better than seeing what you can do with KD on offense.......

    What's over/under at Golden Nugget that he'll make the same or more under new owner?

    He had chance to redeem himself and be the Andy Reid of the NBA...failed.

    Since Lue is off the board, and there are no perfect candidates I'm all for Atkinson or Silas.

    Wouldn't mind to have some hard-nosed mf leading a rebuild and instilling a new philosophy.
