    Hughes is an Olshey guy. He was interim coach for the Clips when Dunleavy got canned.

    When Hughes coached Outlaw and Blake, then was fired, didn't show up for a few days, then was told that cheapskate Kroc han't fired him, just relieved him of acting Head Coach duties, so he returned embarrassed and finished out the remaining weeks of his contract

    I forgot the question. Oh yeah.

    Was it Olshey who miscommunicated to Hughes, to the annoyance of Kroc?

    Sam Presti has lost staff in offseason, but David Vanterpool going back into coaching ranks w/ Portland is easily the toughest blow to OKC.

    The best assistants may find our assistant job attractive because they perceive Stotts as a vulnerable short-termer.

    If you're referring to Ray Kroc, he never owned the Clippers. He owned the San Diego Padres from 1974 until his death in 1984 - 28 years ago.

    Try to keep up old man.

    Depends on what you consider "hot". If you're into 6'11" white dudes, should be your dream come true!

    Just testing. You were more awake than anyone. Good job. That was just a warmup.

    Next, who was the second player ever drafted by the NBA after 1955, who also played in the regular NBA season, but who skipped college?
