    This rook OhShit seems to have a hearing problem. I already announced that Canales will not be head coach. Even Jaynes heard me loud and clear. Smart guy.

    It must be the common agent LeBron LeGary using OhShit as his mouthpiece, same as when he wormed inside Pritchard's brain to make money for Penn.

    If we bring in Sloan as the head coach, any shot at getting D.Williams is dead.

    Maybe we are thinking that not having a coach can help getting a guy like Williams. We can spin it as we want his input on who he wants as his coach.

    Dwight Jaynes of CSNNW.com reports that former Utah Jazz coach Jerry Sloan has not been contacted by the Portland Trail Blazers regarding their open head coaching position.
    -------------------------
    Sloan, who does not use an agent, said, "I could not say I wouldn't be interested if they called. You really don't know until they come and talk to you."

    I hope they don't contact Sloan. He's really old, and I'd rather have someone younger who is more likely to not be so old school that the players tune him out soon.

    His offensive schemes are loads better than Nates, but if they grew tired of Nate being a hard ass (and not taking any blame), why does anyone think they'll like Sloan?

    That wasn't why the most experienced team we've had in years tuned out McMillan. They did so because his dumbshit schemes fool only young players. Sloan would be the opposite of McMillan, not the same.

    They better have a hell of a coaching staff under Caleb.

    Heard on the radio that Shaw is the leading canidate to get the Orlando job. Hope its not true. I want him in PDX with Kaleb as his lead assistant.

    It's hard to grab these young coaches in demand when we aren't focusing on them right now

    Don't put too much stock in SF Gate. They were the same ones who said for sure the Blazers were making interim GM permanent.

    Sloan had the best pick and roll duo in NBA history. He had the all time NBA leader in assists, all time leader in steals. One of the best blocking centers in NBA history. One of the best shooters in NBA history.

    Winning two titles with those players over 20 years is nice, but not terribly impressive.

    Winning zero titles? That’s disappointing.

    Why do we want to hire a disappointment?

    I think Canales is going to be the guy.

    Crazy, nonsensical conspiracy theory, their sales pitch to Deron will involve him helping to pick the new coach!
