Rex Kalamian interviewed

it's happening.

 

Rockets have their head coach. (Silas or MDA)

They're just interviewing possible assistants.

 

What is going onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

 

Les is going to hire 3 head coaches...that way he can fire 2 during the season to wake the team up

So now that we've narrowed it down to two, we've reexpanded it to 4 Feign?

 

I hate the offseason.

 

It would seem comical to interview this guy for a top assistant position.
He's had that position for much better organizations for what, the past 6-7 years? He probably has the ability to do that with Brooks in Washington. Why the f would he want to be the top assistant under Pringles? Or Silas? He wouldn't.

But as a head coaching interview, it is finally something that makes some sense.

This dude was with OKC for 6 years until this past year, so he's tight with Harden, and Durant.

Looks like this dude is just another "yes-man" for Harden. Murray is hiring all of Harden's friends.

 

Kalamian is an Armenian name. Is he friends with the Kardashians?

 

So...both Rockets and Wizards have interest in this guy...don't think is a coincidence...?

 

Is Les going to meet with every assistant in the league?

 

Dang that mad me LOL!!!!

Too freaking funny...

They got their coach. Interviewing assistants now.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">NBA coaching sources say all signs continue to point to the Rockets hiring leading candidate Mike D'Antoni as their coach in the near future</p>&mdash; Marc Stein (@ESPNSteinLine) <a href="https://twitter.com/ESPNSteinLine/status/733421947577503744">May 19, 2016</a></blockquote>

D'Antoni, Hollins, Kalamian would be a power trio if they could get both of those assistants.

 

The only way this makes sense is because he apparently left his family in OKC. I'm guessing they weren't keen on a move to Toronto... completely different lifestyle.

Because other wise, lead assistant with Toronto seems a much better job.

 

I'm tired of going after assistants that only have the "he has a good reputation and is well-liked by players" resume. Why not coaches with proven track records?
