Definitely hard to find a coach with that kind of record who is willing to coach a lottery team. And IMO, Brown was only booted from Cleveland because Gilbert was making a last ditch effort to keep Lebron.
They should interview me for the job...I'm not qualified at all, but I am pretty sure that I could do better than the guy who put this year's squad together.
Dude, I have to applaud your belief in your team, I think that's great. And I agree that the T'wolves are on the upswing, but honestly almost anything would be an improvement over last year. To really get it together the powers that be in MINN need to start making some really good decisions. They have some great pieces now, they have some great draft picks...but how many other teams have found themselves in that same situation and ended up going nowhere? Quite a few.
I agree, he wants the team to show a little commitment to him. Personally don't understand why, Atlanta is the perfect location to showcase your skill set. He should be thinking contender or payday. Atlanta is definitely not a contender, so if they don't offer the money move on.
Personally, I like Noah and I hope he continues to improve and earns this big money, unlike his teammate Deng who signed up for the big cash then fell off the radar.
The Bulls are suffereing from the same paranoia that is all over the league right now, not to mention that they were burned in the not so distant past by losing a high draft pick to Free Agency (Brand).
Sometimes, like in my case you completely forgot that you previously opened another account and ended up signing up for two. Ooops. Don't regularly use the other one thou.
He's also a North Carolina boy, maybe he's banking that Larry Brown won't stay past (or through) this season, and he's hoping to go home as SD said in comment 11 he's good at doing a lot with a little. New CBA might also be a factor. If the NBA goes hard cap the teams are going to become a lot more balanced and he might be looking to make a move.
I think Nate's thinking about walking. Their are going to be plenty of teams looking for a coach next summer. Maybe he can have a special on ESPN to announce where he will coach.
I agree, it's ridiculous. You would think that he would want to sweep it under the carpet not bring it back up. And as far as the race card goes...? Does that mean all the African Americans in NY and Cleveland who are mad at him are Racist?

In defence of other poster, I agree that Van Gundy's turtle-necks are way down at the bottom of the list of things that cause some people to tune out.
