    Why not Phil Jackson? We're probably the closest to his Montana home.

    I would think if he came back for coaching, he wouldn't pick Portland as his destination.

    The one really positive about hiring Caleb is that it sounds like Grgs is a lock to join his staff.

    Also reported that Phil Jackson is not interested in the Knicks job because he says (correctly IMO) that Stoudamire and Anthony don't play well together.

    That was a shot at the media? Olshey basically said he isn't going to let media or agents drive the hunt for a coach.

    Ben is getting a little touchy. He might actually get big enough to have someone of importance refer to him by name. How is he going to react if he gets called out personally like other local media . . . I see a butt hurt Ben who becomes very bias in his reporting of the team.

    You aren't with the Clippers anymore Olshey. You're no longer second fiddle in town.

    Dunlap's supposed to be a great basketball mind. He was formerly an assistant with the Nuggets and was with the Ducks for awhile. Before that he dominated in division II. Brilliant with X's and O's.

    Motion offense guru.

    Cho makes a nice under the radar hire. Doesn't seem like a Jordan type hire.
