Think Ime was responsible for Net's defense. If Ime leaves, Nash and MDA left , they better find another assistant to step up the defensive game.
Power balance in the NBA will lie firmly in the East by next season, a dramatic shift. Boston having a black coach makes them a great sleeper bet.
Ime, from Pops coaching tree. If based on coaching résumé is more than say a Chauncy or even a Becky Hammon. Plus they plucked someone out of their conference rival. A team Celtics just faced and could not overcome in the playoffs. Ime, with intimate (and recent) knowledge of the Nets, may gave Celtics a leg up next time they face each other.
