    Chip Kelly was ahead of his time too. Then everyone caught up. He has not done anything since

    Van Gundy out in NEw Orleans. We better not wait too long. Some might say that’s a better situation than here

    Oh it is for sure. Ingram, Zion, Adams, Bledsoe….That’s a better, younger, roster than what we got.

    I could see Billups jumping at that.

    the Roco@center thing was partially his idea I'm guessing, along with Morey last year.

    I didn't necessarily like it but at least he speaks of his ideas with conviction.

    MDA was inovative in Phoenix, then adapted and ran something completely different in Houston to take advantage of what he had there. Came within a tweaked CP3 hamstring of taking out the dynasty Warriors.

    Even what he did with Westbrook in houston before the bubble was something to behold.

    There’s not a better offensive mind in today’s NBA.

    Championship teams since 2000 all have 1 thing in common. THEIR ROSTERS HAVE THE BEST PLAYER(S) IN THE LEAGUE, or multiple all stars…….Except the Pistons.

    And now Washington

    meaning Olshey will either panic and hire too quickly, wait too long and not get the right person, or think this job is better than it is

    Scott Brooks could not come to an agreement in Washington? They must have really lowballed him. I mean he should feel lucky to make a few hundred grand a year.
