I’m glad to see Vanterpool was kept on. He seems to have an excellent rapport with the players, especially Bilal. Dame and McCollum apparently loved him when they were together in Portland.

Vanterpool is head coach material, imo.

I have no problem with keeping Keefe with Vanterpool as his backup. They managed to get Poole to play better, which is a miracle in itslef.

Apparently more than just coaching staff was let go, so it looks like Dawkins/Winger are cleaning house. Remember they came in somewhat late in the whole process so this is truly their first offseason.

Has the FO decided on what kind of team and style of play they are going to build around? Does Keefe have any influence on the drafting decisions? I don't see who we could have two drafts in a row w/o knowing who the coach will be and what kind of team he wants...

A good coach builds a team around the talents of their star players. We don't really have a star player yet so I don't think we are in much of a hurry to figure out a style of play to build around.

I agree with that. But... I think the FO would have that in mind but wouldn't tip there hand one way or the other...
