    This paves the way for Steph Curry to demand a trade to Portland.

    Dumb move. They will become the T-Wolves now.

    Nate McMillan might not be a bad choice for the Worriers.

    I've gotta ask. BGD, do you use Dragon NaturallySpeaking rather than typing?

    He'd be great if we want a higher seed than them. Awesome for some 3 point shooter who doesn't like to move out of the corner on offense either. Curry ISO would make them easy to stop as well

    Haha!
    I actually thought it was one of his best posts ever - Nate? Worry? Worriers? Good stuff!

    My initial reaction was, that even though I wasn't a fan of the guy, he didn't deserve this...but

    I think we just found our most important off-season acquisition!

    Mark Jackson is assistant coach material but he blew his relationship with the coaching staff and front office so this does not surprise me. He'll get another assistant job somewhere.

    Erman is caught recording coaches' meetings. He is fired and immdediately hired by the Celtics.

    No funny business there. Jackson clearly had no reason to fire the guy. :smiley-squint:

    He might just go back to ESPN and yell "hand down man down" or "Mama, there goes that man" over and over.

    And conversely, I think the Pacers should bring Jackson in. Not just next season, but right now. His Southern-Baptist preacher style might be just what Hibbert needs to get back in gear.

    If Kerr doesn't coach the Knicks I wonder if they would go for Mark Jackson.

    He's not even that really. He's mostly known for his motivational speeches and was notoriously allergic to prepping game plans or even running practices. Sort of like the "nice guy" version of Nate McMillan.

    I was too actually. After listening to him on TV I wondered why anyone thought he'd be a good coach.
