whoa. i hope they arent seriously considering mark jackson, even though storyline would be fun for next season as he looks for revenge

U sure? Took a decent maligned college team to 20 wins and a yr later won the NC. Coach Bud is elite and hasn't won nothing yet.

He won with calhoun players and system....who peaked at the end season at the right time with a bunch of hungry experienced upperclassmen....he had a talented team this year but couldn't even get them to the tourney in a weak conference....now I ain't to write the man off but lets give him somewhere time to label him as a elite coach.....bringing him to the league right now would be hella risky your gonna have surround him with damn good assistants that's for sure....

but the issue in OKC is deeper than the coach....lets not act like brooks didnt have much to work with in the first place besides KD and Westbrook.....the incompetence of the front office/player development played a bigger part imo , the way they drafted and went about free agency made no sense....

word?

Scott Brooks doesn't suck as a coach. He is simply an average coach who is great at player development. He's limited and not a championship level coach but he's a valuable coach nonetheless.

He could do wonders for Orlando's culture and getting their young players to develop. But as soon as Oladipo/Elfrid become superstars, fire em.

 

[waltthizzney]

Perry Jones will be a start now watch

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

According to ESPN, Kevin Ollie has said he is staying at UConn. If that's the case, who do the Thunder try to go after as their new coach?

Let's hope so.

 

[kurt]

word?

just to start, did he ever return boehiems players to him?

 

[Versa]

I can't be the only one who thinks this is just going to expose the fact that both KD and Westbrook have extremely low basketball IQ's...

/QUOTE]

Durant ain't a low IQ player man, and his game is definitely not the same as his rookie days.

 

[Kufismack]

They shouldn't fire him as the scapegoat for an injury prone season. He's ALWAYS been this bad of a coach...
