    I think Shaka Smart, along with experienced NBA assistants on the bench, might be an appealing avenue for the Rockets to go down as a team of coaches.

    Leave Shaka alone. The rockets don't deserve him.

    Does Kenny Smith have any coaching experience at all? Seriously? I mean, I love the guy, but what makes anyone think he can coach?

    Talking Barkley down off his idiot-ledge doesn't count as coaching.

    The Jet is really interesting. Didn't think about it before but I could see it... I'm intrigued.

    What made Jerry West and everyone in GS think Steve Kerr could coach?

    WTF with these Kenny Smith coaching rumors? He's a goof. None of the Rockets' players will take him seriously.

    Can Kenny bring Chuck, Shaq and Ernie in as assistants?

    Bill Self is in too good position to leave for Rockets.

    College coaches like that have nothing to lose. Like if Shaka fails in Houston he can get any college job he wants again.

    I played for Kenny Smith one summer. His basketball mind is unparalleled. His brother is/was a if time coach in NY.
