    I really don't like listening to mark jackson talk, so i'm hoping rambis pulls this out. Jackson seems to have too big of an ego to be a coach.

    Do you think the TWolves roster is capable of running the Triangle offense? Rambis plans to run the Triangle when he becomes a head coach.

    Oh damn, well from what i know about the triangle (not a whole lot, but i'm pretty sure i get the basic premiss) we don't have the right roster at all. Plus kahn wants to run. I guess that's why Jackson is leading the "race" so far. I really don't see Jackson being a good coach though. Damn, now i'm looking pretty disappointed, but the good news is there is little to no chance either of these coaches are long term solutions.

    It also has to do with Rubio wanting a former point guard as a coach. Not the main part, but a reason nonetheless.

    I just don't like the idea of having a guy who has never coached before to come in right away as head coach.

    I doubt Rambis would run the triangle here if he got the job. I bet that would only take place if a) we ended up with the right guys for it. Or b) he doesn't get this job and ultimately takes over when Phil retires.
