I think Van Gundy would have stayed. His family is in central Florida. His kids go to school there. I think he really didnt want to leave.
Otis and Stan were tied at the hip. When Otis was fired (and we all wanted him fired), Stan was going to be replaced by the new GM. That's what new GMs do (or eventually do).
It's so funny... Otis went from Magic GM to HC of the Piston's D-League team. Now THAT is funny.
