Spolestra spent up to 20 years working his way up, he fuking earned it

Luke was handed something he doesn't fuking deserve, one year as a assistant and he's interim hc, that's done bullsh!t

Thankfully hc in the NBA isn't as important

So they should've hired a random coach instead of just letting one of their assistants take over the reins on an interim basis?

Since you're talking about what's "deserved", were you this outraged when Derek Fisher & Jason Kidd went immediately from playing to being a head coach?

Bruh, Spolestra wasn't an NBA champion who played under some of the greatest basketball minds of all time :dahell:

and didnt we just see Derek Fisher go from player to HC over the course of one summer? Why is everybody going off on this move? I think its refreshing to see players jump right into coaching and getting rid of some of the old guard

Luke did time on the bench at U of Memphis, did time on the bench in the D-League, spent a year on a title winning bench
I think Kidd is a better example. Fisher is dogshyt as a coach (he was a shytty player and shytty person too) so he weakens the case for hiring inexperienced coaches for hc jobs.

If I said Kidd though, I was expecting to get posts like:

"but he was a HOF'er, Luke was a bum :martin: "

Wake.
Associate Head Coach.....he's been coaching for 6 years :leon:
Luke, for 1.

...and Tyronn Lue is the highest paid Assistant coach in the league as a result while Luke gets to play Head Coach for a few weeks while his boss is out sick.

Doesn't look like you picked the best comparison tbh.

They have more experienced assistants, what a slap to the face
