Which Head Coaches Get Fired? Who replaces them?

If Clips are going Brown give me Lue!

Billups early years as a HC remind me strongly of Kidd’s early years as a coach. Didn’t deserve the job, didn’t know what he was doing. I don’t know what the world thinks of Kidd as a coach now (average, maybe?), but I imagine Billups will get there.

Doesn’t mean it will be in Portland, though.

I like Kidd...if you give him the right forgiveness, he'll take you to the finals.

Willie Green (NOP), Mike Budenholzer (PHX), Chauncey Billups (POR) seem like the prime candidates. Billy Donovan (CHI) would be my dark horse pick.

Christie is technically only the interim HC, so he probably won't get "fired" per se but IDK what his odds are of retaining the job permanently. And of course Pop won't be fired but might retire for health reasons.

Donovan got a secret extension a summer ago that we've never even heard the terms of, the situation seems a lot closer to "he's going to be the Bulls coach until he decides otherwise" than "about to get fired" to me.

Good to know! Yeah take him off the list then, my logic was mostly that the Bulls seem to be stuck in no man's land and might be looking to shake things up.

I don't see the Kings moving on from Christie especially since they will still be paying Mike Brown and Christie will be a cheaper option than a Vogel or another experienced HC, but may come down to it they fire the front office

Yeah I think Doug will get the job. But it won't be the FO hiring him no matter who is there. If the talk is correct Doug was/is Vivek's plant inside the coaching staff.
Which just brings up another dilemma.
