Those are the Pistons' finalists

Also, it's gonna be Nurse.

I'll be shocked if it isn't.


The Nurse stuff here has been weird.

I understand why you thought that because Gery writes like an eighth grader.

Also, it's gonna be Nurse.

I'll be shocked if it isn't.


Can someone explain why that's the prevailing sentiment, when there's absolutely zero indication that it's happening?

Unless they've done something egregious, you never fire a coach unless you know you can find a better replacement.

Some of these names being thrown around are pretty ridiculous.

Of course assistants would be free to pursue other jobs. The new coach will hire his own staff.

What Mags said.

I believe that they know Nurse is the guy, but they're doing their thing.

I have no real evidence.

I'd rather Bucks move on one way or another with Sammy C over a Nurse band aid.

I think there was small news in the blurb. Namely Charles Lee isn’t going to be the HC in Milwaukee, and that all the other guys on the staff sucked. Just as TT lost a lot when Schneider and Dorsey left, Bud lost a lot with Jenkins and Darvin going.

Think about it…most obvious and best candidate but we havent heard a peep. Knowing what I know, that silence is loud. Nurse owned Bud 4 years ago, org knows that. They want him.

And there’s really only two jobs Nurse would probably want. LAC to be with KL again or MIL to have Giannis.

Nick Nurse has to want to come here, nobody knows if he even wants to.

I'm of the belief we want Nurse and he likes MIL, but it's contract negotiation time. So nothing comes out until its done.

Hopefully Nurse wasn’t just waiting for Suns or Nuggets opening this entire time.
