    Please no retreads with 60K on them. I want someone that has been working hard to perfect their craft and has put in their dues. A players coach that doesn't mind laying in to them if need be. A guy that wasn't a great player but pretty good and worked for everything he got. Let me see, Oh, yes... Sam Cassell.

    Seeing the Jazz collapse again had given me second thoughts about Snyder, but at least that last out of bounds play was pretty damn good. Got Bogdanovic the most open look you could possibly ask for in that situation.

    The Jazz collapse on a regular basis in the playoffs. Some of that has to reflect on Snyder as a coach.

    well in the Playoffs, regardless of the coach, all we'll be playing is Lebron and AD isoball, so you may have a point.

    i think snyder's a good coach and that utah's a hard roster to work with come playoff time. iow, i think they overachieve in the regular season every year, and i think coaching has something to do with that. when rotations shorten and teams get to really hone in on gobert, there's just no way to scheme out of it, imo. you'd have to bench the multi-time dpoy for...defensive purposes... and rudy's lack of ability to really punish smalls on offense is also an issue.

    all that said, i actually don't want snyder to coach the lakers. i'm of the cynical mind that lebron really can't be coached and the lebron teams are lebron teams no matter who's in charge, particularly on offense. let's just get some former player figurehead and a top-notch x and o defensive assistant. when lebron leaves, we can try to hire an actual head coach.

    holy cow, no joke

    The head coaching life isn't for everyone. Some people lose weight and look horrible/gaunt compared to before.

    It's why I personally don't lose weight.

    I'm sure he'll be considered.

    Fwiw, per Cranjis, the Spurs are looking at Will Hardy more so to replace Pop.

    I'd be cool with Ham. This kind of guy is who we should be focused on.
