    Popovich. WHOOOOOOOA.

    Nah it's Doc Rivers who will just step up into the GM spot and Thibs will take his spot on the bench.

    Everyone knows Thibs is out (by Friday according to latest reports), this is apparently one no one saw coming. Fish, Stotts, Wittman, Casey? Or did the Thibs to LA report have some credibility (very unlikely)?

    I would be utterly and completely shocked by Thibs to LA. That would rock the sports world.

    Fish might make some sense. I'd love for Fish to get out of NY while he can. Come back to LA in some capacity.

    Thibodeau to Nawlins'... Rivers will not give up his post as coach. He has "imaginary" parades to plan.

    Stan Van Gundy.

    He fires himself and hires his brother Jeff to coach so he can focus on GM duties.

    Hornacek can't guard MJ. Still haunting him 'til this day.

    overachieved two years ago? I lol'd when everyone said phx was on its way to greatness that year. that was a fluke. that roster is fundamentally flawed and got worse at the deadline this year.

    Pau Gasol for 1 of their first rounder, that was what it would take to get into the playoffs that year. Sarver thought he would screw the Lakers and lowball Mitch. It was downhill from then on for the Suns.

    Well yeah that's kind of my point though, he's not the GM. It's not his fault that team is where they are. In fact I'd say they're really over achieving given they have 14 guards and one center...
