Yes, he won a 50 games a couple times with the Grizzlies but Lionel Hollins won 56 with Grizzlies the year before Joerger was hired. He basically fit in with the trajectory of the coaches before and after him.


The most appealing thing about Joerger is how different those Grit n Grind Grizz and this year's Kings team were, would be nice to have a coach with that ability to adapt

Most people were surprised when Pacers fired Vogel that they went with McMillian since their stated goal was to play faster and that had not been McMillian's MO previously

Just want to avoid the square peg -> round hole thinking where the coach has to have "scoring PG" or "rim protecting big" or they can't coach the team

How dare you!? Luke Walton is the golden child! Greatest coach in the NBA. Remeber all the praise he got for having the crazy record with the Warriros?

Wherever he went he was going to bring that Warriors swagger. Kings will be in the WCF next season now. He's a genius who had the winningst record in NBA history before he took the Lkaers job.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.
