    I'm suggesting that stotts' coughing tree might not be that impressive if they can't land jobs. Prolly a reach

    I think teams are looking for the best X's and O's coaches they can find right now, the smartest basketball minds in the room. It's not enough to simply get your team to play hard for you anymore.

    Stotts with a career .357 winning percentage in the Playoffs. NOT the coach to take you to the next level.

    "but... but... but he got us to the WCF"

    No he didn't. Dame (and to a lesser extent CJ) got us there.

    I would say an equal extent, but otherwise I agree. The only thing Terry did was set up the defense to dare Westbrook to shoot - that was his lone contribution to winning.

    Anfernee did. We play the Warriors in the 2nd round without him messing up Stotts' brilliant final game strategy.

    I've been somewhat ambivalent about Stotts. But after this series, and reflection on his tenure in Portland I'm in the fire his ass crowd

    I want to add to my fire Stotts comments. I really think it's time for any of the Blazers who remain on the roster to be taken out of the comfort zones they've developed under Stotts. That's especially true for Dame and CJ. They need a new coach who will demand more discipline and less hero-ball

    It's telling how, after watching more playoff basketball because the Blazers made it to the WCF, that more people have hopped onto the fire Stotts bandwagon than off of it.

    I think there is a 95% chance he's back next season.

    I think there's a 50% chance he's extended this off-season.

    I think I'm so used to expecting the worst in these last few off-seasons I'm expecting us to come out next year with the exact same roster (minus the guys we can't afford). Aminu re-signed 4/40. Stotts/Olshey extended.

    i think its time for someone new

    i think we've seen everything from Stotts we're going to see, nothing has really changed - still horrible sub patterns, zero in-game adjustments, still playing Turner a stupid amount of minutes, and not putting Hood in when he needs too, or conversely benching hot players.

    i mean shit, even i can do the above....

    who would be an option tho?

    We have also faced GS three times. Cleveland only had a .318 winning percentage with Lebron against them.

    Who has exactly 0 games as head coach in his belt.

    I want someone with playoff experience. Someone tried and tested who has singlehandedly game planned in the playoffs and won.

    SVG.

    Kerr had 0 games as a coach...

    He'd be a great coach, trust me. He has more coaching experience than Kerr had.We need someone innovative.

    Think all this is moot. Terry is gonna get his extension in a few weeks.

    Injuries, injuries injuries.

    I am on the fence about Stotts, but his options were limited.
