I wonder if Chauncey held poker games with the players on the team plane or in their hotel rooms on the road?

 

[LayneStaley]

Someone start a tank thread.

 

[Quatro44]

So the Splitter is our interim head coach.

Hmm... Bjorkren decided he still wants to be assistant? So much to read into there

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Tiago -- did not expect this but he is an up and comer in coaching and WHEN this team needs a new head coach we will see how he did during this time ala David Adelman in Denver

 

[Chris Craig]

Hmm... Bjorkren decided he still wants to be assistant? So much to read into there

Yeah, what's up with that? Rather it be Tiago anyway.

 

[julius]

Good for Tiago, tho under weird circumstances.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Will there be a special edition of the MM who to blame game for this?

Great idea. I could bring back some games for special occasions

Hmm... Bjorkren decided he still wants to be assistant? So much to read into there

Sounds like he lost a bet with Splitter.

Hmm... Bjorkren decided he still wants to be assistant? So much to read into there

Yeah. Sounds like his style doesn't really mesh with players and other coaches.
Also there is another Nate I think they should interview. Nate Tibbetts

 

[wizenheimer]

well, Splitter has had more coaching experience than Chauncey did when he was named HC by Olshey

has an NBA head coach ever been 'fired' only one game into a season?

 

[Pinwheel1]

Hmm... Bjorkren decided he still wants to be assistant? So much to read into there

Yeah, that is interesting. Perhaps he knows that he is better suited as an assistant, or maybe he thinks taking over and not having the best season would harm his next opportunity.

He’d have to bring his own cards because they are marked on backside of cards lol

 

[Norman Dale]

Good move to put Splitter in charge. Did good things in Europe.

Hi My Name is Mike Malone and I can coach

Some people know they're better off not being the main guy.

 

[andalusian]

Is it possible to rectify the Becky Hammon issue and bring in Victoria Coren Mitchel?

Hi, my name was Mike Malone and I was fired with less than 10 games left in the season, and after winning an NBA title.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Billups can always get a job at Panda Express

Depends on their background check.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

has an NBA head coach ever been 'fired' only one game into a season?

Think of it as being fired with a 100% losing record

Well Cronin does have a Colorado fixation

I HATE that this is going to over shadow the fact that sure this team has issues on the court but the future looks bright but the good thing is this team will have a new HC and I am all for that cause I thought Billups at best was average. I always said I liked Billups the player etc but as a coach no thanks and wanted to move on from him just sucks it's taking this to prolly get that done. Since it puts a black eye on the Blazers since he is part of the franchise.

If we are going with a female coach, which I have no problem with, I would rather go with Splitter's wife. She seems very knowledgeable.
