    No cable where you're from? Guessing you missed where the relationship ended badly and will NEVER get back together with any of these 3 you suggested?

    McHale's not coming back, especially as an assistant and certainly not as a head coach, so you can end this thread now. The McHale days are over, end of story.

    Why would McHale come back to the franchise that spurned him, only to take a lesser role?

    That's like getting dumped by your ex, then your ex getting together with another person, then your ex friendzoning you, hard.

    Ok. You want a serious answer. I guess. So here goes. McHale, like everyone else, is human. He came here, did his job and got fired after 11 games into a season that immediately followed making the final four. Yea, fine he walked away with millions. But the rockets essentially told him he is an idiot for allowing the team to go 4-7 and didn't give him time to fix it. We now know it could not be fixed.

    Lets say the rox actually wanted him back. Do you honestly think Kevin McHale would crap all over his dignity and come back here after the way the rockets treated him? Would you? So the answer. No, I don't think it is a good idea. That bridge is burned and the ashes swept away.

    [LA Times - Feb 20, 2016]
    'What has Kevin McHale been up to since being let go by the Houston Rockets? Picking up a new home, for one.
    The former Boston Celtics star and NBA head coach recently bought a house in Scottsdale, Ariz., for $1.47 million.'

    So... basically everyone that disagrees with you is a fool, and everyone that agrees with you is part of the "more intelligent members of this board"?

    Let me guess, this post is entirely motivated by your fear of D-Mo getting marginalized on the team without a dedicated big man coach, huh.
