I wonder would he have asked MJ, Kobe, or Shaq to take a paycut.....
He was the coach then, now he runs the front office. Different positions and mindsets.

Take a pay cut with NY and basically have a worthless season next year with Amare and Chandler still on the books.
At the age he is, he doesn't have the time for a season or two rebuild. But what two other superstars could he get to NY? Love and PG?

Best case scenario is a 08 Celtics type of setup. Put him with a shooter and a defensive oriented big man...treat that nikka like Paul Pierce.

But only coaches I can see him winning with in a nice system is Pops, Carlisle, Thibbs or Spo b/c of Lebron. So by elimination...Dallas or Chicago?
