Barkley mentioned on TNT/NBA that Kenny maybe coaching and the Rockets maybe the team. Maybe as an assistant coach?
Watkins also mentioned Kenny Smith (plus Shaka Smart and Bill Self) http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/1...-interim-coach-removes-name-consideration-job I'm pretty sure this is for the HC job. No sense in choosing/interviewing assistants when the new HC will want his own staff
I know Shaq used to have a gym in Pearland. Marcus Camby still lives off Fife Rd in Pearland the last time I checked.
Id want kenny to be offensive coach, if Jvg is allowed to be defensive coach. Can there be a first co head coaching job in nba history?
He has wanted to coach for years, it is a massive risk as to whether he is any good at it, he might be great, he might be average he might be crap. DD
Kenny would be horrible for Harden. You need a guy to connect with Harden that James will trust. Kenny is going in this with the attitude that James is a punk and has an attitude problem and doesn't care. Harden will hate that. No coach should come before a great player, and Harden is just that. Spurs can be used to diffuse that point but Spurs is an exception, not the rule. I think Van Gundy would be great. He has his weaknesses but he always backs his top players, and Harden will love him for it just like Tmac did when he was playing for him. We won a nice number of games with him in the tmac Yao era. We fell short in the playoffs but i believe that was more on the players than the coach.
LOL, using Tmac era as an example for JVG? We won a nice amount of games in the McHale era too. Fell Short in the playoffs? which players? the ones that JVG personally wanted?
And McHale was a great guy to tet through to Harden, but I just dont trust his X's and O's If you think I'm hyping up McGrady you're dead wrong. I think our failures were due to him being soft, not JVG. I think our failures in this era was more due to the coach.
