Blazers Legend Chauncey Billups

Love it.

 

[Haakzilla]

Imagine if Stotts was still the Coach with the current roster

...no!

I wouldn’t watch a single game.

 

[Scalma]

Nurk retweeted the video lol he’s gonna love playing for him, career year coming just stay relatively healthy plz.

 

[0-Our!]

Call it a gut feeling or whatever you want, this guy is gonna be a great coach. You can just see it. Players are locked in on everything he’s saying.

Chills! THIS IS a coach!

 

[BBert]

some people just have it, its called personality and i dont think you can work on it

chauncey billups definitely has it

He has Charisma.

 

[Mr. Robot]

He has Charisma.

sure, but its bigger than just charisma

he has set of qualites that make his personality astonishing, terry stotts didnt seem to have that (not to this extent)... having a leader like that can change a lot for the better and its even better when you have leader like dame and i have no worries about chauncey controlling the locker room in every possible sense, now the only thing we need is for chauncey to show his knowledge about bball (xs & os)

 

[HailBlazers]

A lot of interesting stuff here.

We didn't get any of this access with Stotts from what I can remember. Hopefully this is something we see more of in the future.

- Working on pick up points / off ball positioning with Greg Brown

- Helping Nas with handling emergency help situations - talking through scenario if we are in "ice" on side ball screens, but ball handler rejects and gets middle and we need help at the nail.

Couple play calls

- "Delay Slash" 5 out spacing (2 on wing, 2 in corners, big trailing at top of key). Ball swings to the big and dribbles out the wing into hand off with corner player. "Slash" is the cut the wing player makes when the big dribbles at him.

- "Zip Wide" Not as sure on this one, but taking it at face value it prob involves a zipper screen to bring a guard up the lane line with a wide pindown screen for a shooter on the weakside.

Good lookin erra listenin Man.

Does Neil get credit for hiring this guy? hell yes he does! nice hire!

 

[wizenheimer]

Does Neil get credit for hiring this guy?

well, we don't know yet just how good Billups will be as a coach. Maybe he's Adelman level, maybe he's Cheeks level

but any credit due is offset by 9 years of Stotts

Stotts video was a bit underwhelming. Could it be just how the video was edited?

 

[Haakzilla]

In Billups We Trust!

idk how Stotts held any players attention for more than one season he’s just so vanilla.

I think Billups is going to be a fantastic coach. While I 100% agree running our starting 5 back is a mistake and the cj lillard backcout is not goin to work and we have seen this by now., I wouldn't underestimate how much a coaching difference can make. Just look at the Hawks.

it’s funny because the majority of people on here spent all season blaming Stotts (rightfully so) for a large share of the problem, but now that the GM pretty much agreed with that assessment, it’s a problem lol.

No the roster wasn’t perfect and Olshey isn’t innocent, but this team should’ve had no business losing to a nuggets team without their starting backcourt.

We’ll see where the roster is in a month, but I feel confident that our most significant addition this offseason will end up being Billups.

Because he’s a decent guy and they respected that.

 

[Scalma]

sad sentence.

 

[royo]

Jesus. They made shopping for him and helping him cross the street too?

 

[THE HCP]

Amazed how anybody can have an opinion of him as a coach, GOOD or BAD at this point. Based on what?
Careful. You know who you are. Now that we have a Hall of Fame coach, there is NO way we are not winning 65 games this season, right?
@THE HCP has met and can confirm he seems like a great guy, but he will wait a bit to form his opinions on Coach Billups as a coach.

found stotts vid

Seeing those players makes me sad.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Because he’s a decent guy and they respected that.

And a good fucking coach.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

I never got to see Terry, but my gut says he had a style similar to Mo Cheeks.

Sit there during practice and let your assistants do all the work.

Terry was pretty active. Lots of video to watch on it.

 

[Strenuus]

And a good fucking coach.

I read this as "a coach that got carried by Damian lillard" and concluded that this was in fact the more factual statement.

Terry was never a good coach. Just a coach that got carried.

Back to Billups now.

 

[Mediocre Man]

This one is longer than what I saw yesterday

 

[Scalma]

Terry was pretty active. Lots of video to watch on it.

Yeah he was actively passive, especially the last year or two. No surprise he (allegedly) lost the locker room.

 

[Hoopguru]

Billups had Ben Wallace playing 5, think he might see something in Faried and try and make him a low post defender? He's only 31

 

[julius]

This one is longer than what I saw yesterday

I think that's just the version they had on youtube.

 

[DDolla]

Chauncey really coaching that young guy Greg Brown

 

[Idog1976]

Call it a gut feeling or whatever you want, this guy is gonna be a great coach. You can just see it. Players are locked in on everything he’s saying.

wooooow! More coaching in this clip that Stotts all last year! And the respect he commands! Side note i kinda want Beasley on the team...

You always go into extreme mode. There is something in between
