    No college coaches. We don't need a transitional coach. We've already had one for 7, now 8 seasons. We need someone ready and experienced in the NBA world.

    Find me a coach who will run the offense through our big man. Watch our percentages go way up.

    Thinking outside the box but no Becky Hammons?

    Stotts is not getting fired anytime soon.

    these are my personal picks just thinking off top head. Wasn’t making a list of every single coaching option and was actually hoping others would list names. So far nope.

    Stotts is the worst coach we have ever had. Anyone with any coaching pedigree would be better.

    There is no argument. Good day.

    I didn't say that at all. You were wondering why you weren't getting much of a response so I was just letting you know why.

    Hard to tell if those guys will be available in 3-4 years when we have a coaching vacancy.

    Phil Jackson isn't working.
    You have to mention Becky Hammond if you are a Portlander and you think it's time a Female stepped up?
    Talk around the league has David Blatt available.
    Adrian Griffin currently would be a good choice in my book.
    Of course everyone would want Ettore Messina but he ain't coming here.
    Pablo Prigioni is a you and up and comer. Maybe needs more experience.
    Wondering if Dave Jorger would be looked at?
    How about Kenny Smith? I'd like to see it.

    There. That's the best i can come up with?

    Stotts is getting dangerously close to .500 for his coaching career here in Portland.

    The definition of mediocre/purgatory.

    It’s unheard of for a coach to get 8 years with zero accomplishments... not even a conference title... this is unreal... 8 years of mediocrity!
