I wouldn't mind ownership cutting Stackhouse a big check to coach our G-League team. But the main squad? Please don't do that to us.

Interviewing this many coaches screams that we will try to chase a lot of these guys to be assistants with $$$

Stackhouse is interesting because he is a former player, but I agree with Empire that would have Jordan written all over it.

That’s disappointing I was hoping he would be the choice here

It was reported that the Nets were going after Budenholzer last week. I wonder what happened?

Possible he was drunk during the interview?

A HC with a DUI on his track record is not a good look.

That was a one time thing over a decade ago and I'm pretty sure he was found not guilty because his breathalyzer results were below the legal limit.

We dodged one with Young. Jordi was interesting but was never one of my top personal choices.

Bud is just sitting out there, at risk of not coaching two seasons in a row when he's got a contending coaching pedigree. JUST GO ALL IN ON BUD PLEASE

Geez, the list is LONG for interviews. That seems ridiculous. Why do preliminary interviews with (seemingly) twenty people, and include superfluous possibilities like Dawn Staley (zero pro experience), yet not include Bud in that group?

I’d think this gang of ours could have avoided using the “wide net” strategy. That’s something done with small potato hiring. Even assistants looking to move up don’t want to get publicly revealed, especially in a massive group, only to not be hired. If you’re part of a small, focused group of announced candidates and miss out, it still speaks highly of being considered. Part of a huge mass employment line? No wonder Fernandez is taking the Nets job.

Hope our junior GM knows what he’s doing….
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Tells me they have no idea who the HC will be. Usually a short list means they already have someone as a target.

Maybe Bud was the main guy, but he told them he wasn't interested.
