    Unfortunately I'm starting to think It's PJ Carlesimo and they're waiting until he's done announcing at the Olympics to announce his hiring.

    Meh, they could do worse. I personally would love Bill Walton or perhaps Doug Collins/Mike Fratello/some other national name, but despite being an asshole, PJ knows his stuff.

    PJ's voice would undo any good they did with the Calabro hire. His scratchy throat would drive me up a wall

    Blazers should make Steve Kerr an offer he can't refuse.

    Horse head? I was thinking more like Curry or Durant's.

    As others have said his voice is awful and he seems like a real ass hole that will piss the fans off, especially losing two nice enough seeming fellows for him.

    Imagine the two of them if we hit another series clincher in the playoffs. I'm fairly sure the people sitting closest to them would have their heads burst from the sheer decibels created by those two.
