He's got a bad track record, but he's also had some bad teams. I like that he's coached under Dantoni and Kerr, so I'm assuming he would emplement a faster pace, which is what I really want to see them do. Reading LMA and Wes Matthews wanna be a package deal. Somehow trade Noah and Taj, sign those 2 guys, end scene. Edited May 15, 2015 by scs787 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 16, 2015 -> 07:48 AM) No, players cannot be involved in a deal for a coach, only picks You'd somehow have to do 2 seperate deals I guess if that makes any sense. There's no way Orlando gives up a top 5 pick for Thibs, maybe a future 1st, but Hennigan is very big on building through the draft. With Harris as well, it depends on how much you're going to pay him. I don't think he's worth a MAX deal (I'd rather Winslow or Stanley Johnson in the draft unless we get the top pick), but a team like the Knicks or Lakers might offer him the MAX, so Orlando might not match. If Thibs went to Orlando though, I could definitely see them going after Gibson, he's exactly what they need in terms of a 4 to play next to Vucevic. Could probably do a trade deal with someone like Kyle O'Quinn if the Bulls wanted a 4/5 back who is younger and cheaper and a similar sort of player perhaps.

Somehow trade Noah and Taj, sign those 2 guys, end scene. I think he needs a top defensive assistant coach, but if he could bring that as part of the package, I think he'd do a pretty solid job. His reputation has been re-built I suppose being part of the Warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woj talked about this today, there is something in the CBA that prevents the teams from doing a side deal as compensation, the teams cannot have a player deal for like a year or something.

Even in top tier college ball the good college coaches have specialized staffs. In the NBA you have so many more resources to make a good hire and enable him to be effective. It's baffling. Every great coach had people on their staff that owned one side of the court or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, I thought that would probably be the case after the Doc Rivers scenario a couple of seasons back. I think Thibs ends up with the Pelicans when it's all said and done, simply because they have Anthony Davis. If they have to trade one of their players for a 1st in this year's draft to get him, I think that'd be a price they'd be willing to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It won't be anything close to that bad, imo. The Spurs played at a level in games 3, 4 and 5 that we've never seen before. Last year's Heat was made up of LeBron and a lot of old/crusty vets. In Mozgov, Thompson, Smith, Shumpert and hopefully a healthy Kyrie, there's plenty of youth/athleticism to go around. With a healthy Love, i'd say their chances would be a legit 50%. As it stands now, it's probably like 35-40% unless LeBron goes witness mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
