This will be done by Friday. Deadlines spur action and I'm sure management/owners have plans to get to.

What's the significance of Friday? Holiday weekend?

Would it be fair to say Griffin is a Certified Nurse Practitioner

Listened to Hollinger & Duncan today and they ranked the HC openings and as well as ranked the fired HCs. Thought it was interesting

Both agreed the open jobs went
1. Phoenix
2. Philadelphia
3. Milwaukee
4. Toronto
5. Detroit

They differed on the fired coaches

Hollinger went Monty, Nurse, Bud, Vogel, Doc
Duncan went Nurse, Bud, Vogel, Monty, Doc

Surprised they had us ahead of Toronto and Detroit.

I don’t think the bucks are the best choice but I won’t agree with anything Nate Duncan related

He does seem to dislike our roster, but he is also pretty high on Bud overall(had him 3rd in his coach rankings overall this year). Whereas most Bucks fans think our roster is great and Bud was the main issue he seems to be the opposite

Clearly, it's tough to be objective when looking at how our job opening ranks against other teams, as the perceived quality of our town factors into it. But, I really don't see why the Phoenix and Philly gigs would rank higher than ours. Did they have any rationale behind their rankings?

Basically Phoenix was 1 because you have KD & Booker locked in for the next 2-3 years plus either Ayton or whatever you got in a trade. Philly was 2 because they trust Embiid more, and they aren't sure if the Bucks will be able to keep Khris & Brook, and that Khris & Jrue are getting older. I don't really agree especially with the trusting Embiid part

Anything national media related usually does its best to try and **** on the Bucks.

Getting free reign to scheme concepts on offense and defense around Giannis would seemingly be the most lucrative coaching position available…

If our ownership is willing to do whatever it takes to win another one (I think they are) then Bucks is the best job. Embiid is brittle and Harden is leaving. As for the Suns, they have the two best two point shooters in the league in an era where its accepted that mid range shots are the least efficient way to win.

Nate Duncan is always the least charitable when it comes to covering the Bucks. He’s got a weird hate/bias thing going on with our team.

Bud made some baffling mistakes and our roster is old and slow. They are still good enough to win it all (and Bud is a good enough coach) but the old/slowness, the complacent tactics, the brain farts, and Miami shooting extremely well caught us this year. Some of those things you can act on and some you can't. I think the roster is next.

He probably was wrong about the Bucks about something that's fueling it. He's a know it all and when proven wrong he tends to dig his heels in and double down. Total tool, can't believe he has fans.

Sounds like a guy roughly 47% of people would be a fan of.

Any sense on who is 2nd if we don't get Nurse between Kenny & Griffin?

Favorite Finalist?
