To be a player-coach, you have to be on the active roster while coaching.imo

If giannis signs an extension because of whoever he picks as coach I could care less tbh.

If you look at the parallels of bucks and raps Bud / Nurse are more cerebral and Darvin / Griffin more personable.

Griffin seems to be a Darvin replacement

If Giannis isn't on board with the new coach, he will be after a short promotional commercial.

*Black SUV drives through Milwaukee while talk radio host speculates on upcoming season. SUV comes to a stop and tinted window rolls down, revealing Nick Nurse*
Nurse: Let's doodis.

Shams reporting that Nurse is at or near the top of all 3 marquee job openings…please get this done Edens/Haslam…Giannis will get on board with it

I probably would have called Bud a player's coach in that he never seemed to give anybody a hard time about anything and let them do whatever they wanted offensively. But I guess not so... not sure what the label means.

Let's be real, player's coach is a dude who is hands off and lets dudes play with freedom offensively AND is a former NBA player.

Just show this to Giannis

Nothing groundbreaking, but the dude wants to win just as badly as Giannis does. He wants another Giannis MVP, Jrue & Khris all-star, championship Giannis Finals MVP, etc. Not so different from Bud vitamins, but will get on your ass when necessary. Will put an arm around you when necessary. Will leave no stone unturned adapting to an opponent.

There’s “players’ coaches” and “coach’s sons,” but what about… “players’ coach’s sons”???

Giannis prpbably wants a coach who will keep the status quo with him allow him free full reign on O rush the wall take stupid ass 3s......no giannis no not your game i guarntee nurse will change some of that O

I'm not too worried about Giannis's personal preference, Giannis didn't want us to fire Jason Kidd so I think that speaks for itself.

If nurse was still fat man the, "van down by the milwaukee river" memes would be everywhere.

Missed opportunity.

When POOPTUBE speaks, I tend to listen.

Though I disagree with his friend of friend who described Nurse as a “dbag”. He always seemed like more of a chode to me. Or is it choad?

I know a guy who knows a guy that knows for a fact that the hire might not be a guy.

“Culture fit” is becoming a meme at this point.
