Out of all the players in the NBA who do you think will be a coach sometime during his lifetime. Don't put coaches who were players just the ones playing <u>basketball</u> in the NBA right now will be a coach?
Y'know, for some reason I had never thought about this, but I could see Stackhouse being a coach at some point. I wouldn't expect him to be a head coach soon or necessarily ever, but I wouldn't be surprised if he coached or was involved in a head office in some capacity after he retires.

Almost cost Dallas the game.

Derek Fisher and Darrell Armstrong would make good coaches. Tough veterans, who know the game, and our level headed.
IMO I would rather have a PG be the coach of a team because majority of the time they are the smartest players on thier team. But I would haveBillupsPaytonArmstrongCassellSnowNashKidd
Guys like Boris Diaw, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett, and Andrei Kirilenko could be pretty good since they're multi position players. But great coaches in this leauge would probably come from no star players.
I could easily see Darrell Armstong in Orlando. He similar to a mini Avery Johnson. Has passion and charisma. If not he'll be a player developer
I would probably go with Chauncey billups, he just reminds me so much of Doc Rivers so I would not be checked to see him coach shortly after his retirement
Daniel GibsonI know, he still just a rookie but I was watching NBAtv and he was on there and he has a very high basketball IQ. Never really heard a young player talk like that and understand that game...not to mention hes a guard. So theres another one of my off-the-wall opinions.
I agree with a lot of picks in this thread, so I'll throw one out there that hasn't been said yet... I can see Aaron McKie being a head coach at some point if he was up for it. If not a head coach, he could definitely be an assistant.
