I’ve been browsing online more than 3 hours these days, yet I by no means found any attention-grabbing article like yours.
It’s pretty worth sufficient for me. Personally, if all webmasters and bloggers made
excellent content material as you probably did, the net will likely be a
lot more useful than ever before.

I kind of agree with bobbysimmons for example look at: Phil Jackson, Pat Riley, Doc Rivers & Gregg Popovich they were all former basketball players and that is why most NBA present players can relate to them by, giving them more confidence to win a championship title.

Why do I want a black ex-player coach? I want someone the players can relate to, a players coach, not some guy who has a genius basketball mind but the players hate. I’m not saying Tom Tibideau is a machine that nobody can relate to, but let me tell you, “basketball strategy” is one of the most overrated qualities in NBA coaches, the players are the ones who win, not the coaches. Thus a coach that brings the players together, makes them comfortable, gives them confidence, is definitely first in my book. VDN was perfect, all the players were happy and confident under him, unlike Scott Skiles who I think ruined the careers of Curry, Chandler, TT. Yeah we may have got more wins with Skiles, but at what cost? Everyone was always disgruntled under him, I don’t recall that guy ever making a joke.

[…] how it was rumored that the Bulls met with Celtics assistant coach Tom Thibodeau the night before Boston played in Game 1 of the NBA Finals? And how the Celtics denied […]

Why not? I have heard a lot of good things about him. To me it is either Byron Scott or Tom Thibodeau as the Bulls new head coach. We can go wrong their lol

Thibodeau would be a great choice, I think. He is sort of like Scott Skiles, very much into the fundamentals of the game, defense and employing an ‘allround’ team game. If the Bulls do decide to take him as the next coach, I hope that things go much better with him and he stays longer than Skiles did. Mind you, Skiles did a very good job in getting the Bulls back into the mix, making the playoffs three straight years, making it to the conference semis in 2007, but with the poor start to the 08 season, was fired. Whoever it is at this point, I hope the Bulls front office actually makes a good decision and doesn’t get into a fight with the new personnel and treats the coaches and players with more respect. Go Bulls!

Avery Johnson said he didn’t think that LeBron and D. Rose could play together. That makes him an idiot in my book, Black or not. Actually, Thibodeau’s been atop my list Vinny’s firing. I’d prefer Doc (there were rumors), but TT’s a solid choice.

A defensive minded coach would fit perfectly with LeBron’s high basketball IQ. It takes D to win, and LeBron is very aware of that. Thibodeau’s D sent LBJ to the crib for the summer. Granted, he’s been most successful with a healthy KG, but the Cs also play great team defense which speaks to coaching. Assuming Phil’s not an option, I’m down to a pretty short list. 1. Doc, 2. Thibodeau, 3. B. Scott, 4.Anybody but McHale.
