Would Roy make a good assistant coach?

[Further]

I know he is respected by players and loved by the city of Portland. If/when he retires, should the Blazers try and get him as an assistant? As young as he is, my guess is that after a year off he would be itching to have something to do with the NBA.

in the future, the ability to have a child will be chosen by lottery, thus only the lucky will have children, and of their children, only the luckiest of them will have children, until the entire population of earth, the entire human race is incredibly lucky, and nobody will ever trip and fall into a woodchipper

except the rebels who still breed in the caves, their kids will hit like EVERY red light on the way to work

Roy hasn't shown an ability or willingness to be anything less than The Man as a player. That doesn't seem like a good quality in an assistant coach.

I think so, he's very smart but first he has got to accept the fact that his days of playing the game are over. Once he can do that I think that is a great role for him.

Sweet, a coach with a one play playbook.

Wesley Matthews votes yes.

 

[VanillaGorilla]

No.

 

[Mediocre Man]

NO!

 

[blue9]

Also voting no. I have seen nothing from Roy that makes me think he'd be even a mildly adequate coach. Sheed would be a much better coach.

 

[BlazerWookee]

I don't think so. What's he going to do, teach four guys to stay out of his way while he teaches the other guy to break down his defender at his own leisure?

 

[RR7]

nope

 

[magnifier661]

Probably not. I used to think yes

 

[BBert]

I don't think so. What's he going to do, teach four guys to stay out of his way while he teaches the other guy to break down his defender at his own leisure?

LOL

And I agree.

Maybe he would but I've not seen anything to show he's a coach.
