    Ask me later in the season. You don't fire anyone after 3 games.

    No offense, G-Money, but "Ask me later in the season" is probably not the best poll option -- it could apply to any coach, player, front office executive in the league. I voted "No".

    Too early, now if we go 0-6 + then it might be time to look at new coaches

    Hall of fame coach.

    You don't "fire" Adelman.

    Stability at the coaching spot is something that's sorely overlooked by most people.

    We have a coach that in 19 years of being a head coach, has only missed the playoff 3 times.

    Bleacherreport list Adelman as the 23rd best coach in NBA history. From that list he is 6th on the list if you only include current active coaches.


    Thus out of 30 teams, we have the 6th best coach in the NBA. Ahead of him are: Phil Jackson, Popovich, Larry Brown, Jerry Sloan, George Karl.



    Thus, while the idea of blaming someone for the mess we have right now might be a comforting, you just dont throw away the 6th best in anything. Especially in the middle of a season, which would cause a huge disruption and we would not amount to anything after that anyways. Plus the choice of replacements isnt all that great either.
