Dick Allen Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 They aren't calling him interim but he probably is until Iowa State's season ends. Not that it would change their job status at all. , but isn't this move a can't win for GarPax? If they continue to play like this, their talent evaluation looks bad. If they actually improve, wouldn't it be fair to say why did it take so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) Well Im scared whenever Stephen A Smith agrees with me. Another problem that bothered me with Hoiberg was that he never really seemed to get at the refs to protect his players. Carter has been the refs whipping boy for a lot of games, and I dont think Hoiberg ever once got technical for it. Stacey King was more upset. (edit) Itll be interesting to see what Boylen does. He has coached with some famous coaches. Edited December 3, 2018 by Soxbadger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least for me, I figured that clip was him being the "average NBA player's voice" and when he says the average NBA player doesn't respect Hoiberg, I believe them, because he talks to enough average NBA players to be able to say that confidently.

bmags Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 While you shouldn't try to undercut new coach right away (you should wait until months from now!), this is still embarrassing to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Maybe I'm reading into this too much, but is the fact that it is Boylan for the longer term mean that basically GarPax have this one shot and if it doesn't work, they are all gone. Either way, while the timing was odd, I think everyone knows enough to see Hoiberg is not an amazing head coach and I can totally buy the comments from Stephan A Smith (regarding players not thinking that highly of Fred). He is a class act though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will give him every opportunity to succeed minus a roster that could succeed. Someone needs to tell them that is the most important part, and if Boykin is the answer, why wasn’t this move made last year? Theoretically they could have lost him as he interviewed with MJ. Pax gave Jabari Parker $20 million and thought he could play the 3. It is time he doesn’t make decisions anymore.

Dick Allen Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Until they get rid of GarPax, any other move is just window dressing. They aren’t winning a thing. They got close when they got DRose against all odds. But still really had no shot. They need to bring in someone dynamic. Pay them a ton, they will be worth it. You won’t have to pay for bad players. You won’t be paying ex coaches. It is mindboggling how Gar and Pax get away with this. Bulls fans fill that arena all the time, and pay a premium price to do it, they are owed better. There should be notice given to these 2, yes you are 5-19, but make the playoffs or you are done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
