    If there's anything certain in this world, it's that ashleyem predictions never come true.

    It's time to put some respect on Mike D'Antoni's name. He understands that the ball needs to be in your best player's hands as much as possible.

    Throw in a Defensive coach too. Their Defense looked like the Capitol building this past week

    bad team chemistry doesnt mean you have a bad coach. i think he is going to be a great nba head coach when it becomes his team.

    He’s been terrible to this point. His offense sucks and cf’s wanted to assume ohh it’s going to be better than years prior. Not even going to go to the defense. It’s abysmal and one of the worst in the league

    Why?

    This guy has no evidence of ever being a talented coach.

    Ty Lue is THE offensive X’s and O’s guy. With big balls and comes from Phil Jackson’s coaching tree. Not to mention coaching Cleveland’s insane playoff offenses for years and winning a title.

    Lue didn’t need any nepotism to get into the league as a coach.

    This was a joke hire. I haven’t seen one trait from the guy I like. Nothing. No aspect to the team that he has had control over.

    Seems like every coach knows that except for Silas.

    He was a middle ground hire with the ownership & players each wanting a different coach. He was nobody’s choice.

    He may be the perfect coach if we are going to tank for a few years.

    I have no idea if he’s a good coach or not. But, you don’t want to bring in a big name coach just to tank.

    Well, you said you'd be fine with him if we were a rebuilding team.... but he sucked really bad at being the coach of that too.
    Overall though, good call. I suspect you just said that to be nice and give an olive branch anyway.
