    Listen to the guy who quit in several elimination games? Who got CP3 ran outta Houston because he brought the ball up court? Not smart

    Every day I come to the GARM hoping to see that Silas is history. But alas, it is never so.

    Didn't age well. I think Silas will be here next year. I simply lost all faith.

    Would Kelvin Sampson be interested if offered the job?

    The internal battle Tillman would face on this one might cause him to stroke out.

    If Harden is back my money would be on one of

    Cassell
    Udoka
    Dantoni
    Kelvin Sampson
    Nick Nurse

    he is tight with Cassell, Kelvin Sampson, Udoka and obviously Mike. Nick Nurse is a damn good coach so I would go after him to.
    It has to be someone experienced

    We need a no nonsense, authoritarian type coach that will hold people accountable. That's true for the youngsters and/if we get Harden back.

    Was Silas a NBA player? This isn't the same route

    Every time I see this train of thought I have a good chuckle. I honestly don't think what you're describing truly exists anymore. I agree we need someone who will hold them accountable, but if you put an "authoritarian" coach onto an NBA roster in this day and age the whole damned roster would demand a trade within two weeks.

    His employer is satisfied with where he’s at.

    I’d suggest IO qualifies IF IO qualifies (from a toxic standing).

    Choice #2: Sammy

    I don't even know who IO is. I feel like it's going to be obvious when you tell me. But these are initials I have never seen before.

    Ime Udoka and why I did the ‘O’ is just a senior moment.

    Being an NBA player doesn’t guarantee to be a good coach

    Big difference is Cassell is a Champion NBA player. Silas has no NBA experience. Believe it or not, that does have some merit. Not to mention Sam was a Point Guard. Point Guards tend to understand how to control a game and how to keep tempo better than bigs like Milkhair.

    But there's tons of examples of great NBA coaches who were former players. Obviously there are good examples of non-NBA players too so I'm not saying being an NBA player automatically makes you a better coach but they tend to have a way of connecting with players when those players can go back and watch their videos and the coach can relate to their experiences because they have been through the fire.
