I've never seen so many coaches be tossed like this season. It's a shame. I like Flip and Avery. I hate van gundy

No kidding! I could see some bottom end coaches, but not the list that's been posted. Lots of upper echelon coaches canned the same year. The way it's going, Phil Jackson could get fired when they lose.













:ROFL::ROFL: HAHA! I already feel the LA heat quoting me! :D
 
the only thing your statement merits is a high five! :headbang2

I'm really surprised it took that long. He basically stepped into a good team, and didn't repeat the wins that were already there. Well, the wins yes, but THE win, no. It'll be interesting to see what happens up there in D town.

The problem is there aren't many coaches out there who have THE win. If you look there is Pop, Phil, Riley, and Larry Brown, who actually might be the abberation. All of those guys have jobs, so who are you really gonna get who has the right credentials? The problem is the players don't respect their coach, no matter who he is, they hated Larry Brown too. After you run 3 coaches out of town, and who are all good coaches, Carlisle, Brown, Saunders, you gotta look at the players.

If that were true that would be just dumb..but he is a chicago native, or maybe his injuries are worse than it seems, for the heat t consider trading him...

They were running a story on Yahoo about it, I haven't heard it anywhere else yet...


I heard it on sportcenter this morning, the matrix, wade, and their lottery pick could really revive that team and they really need it:(.

True, they just never seem happy. But I guess that's the type of stuff you can expect from a team that has sheed as one of the front men. I was pretty amazed when they parted with Brown, so I guess this one doesn't surprise me.

The Wade trade rumor is so strange. That's about all I can say.
