"Sam Cassell, according to Michael Lee at the Post, will be one of Saunders' assistants.

That's just fine with Caron Butler, who broke out into a laugh on Monday night when the Cassell news was brought to his attention.

"That'd be nice because Sam is a dude who understands the game. He and I went to the same prep school (Maine Central Institute), so we have a great relationship, and I see him at Berry Farms. You know, Sam's great. He's real funny. He'd be good for the locker room"

According to Comcast's Chris Miller, Randy Wittman is also on board as one of Saunders' assistants. Wittman, who followed Saunders for a brief stint as Minnesota's head coach, is known as a defensive-minded coach, so that will take care of that."

Sam Cassell and Caron Butler both when to prep school in central Maine? According to wiki, so did Cat Mobley and Brad Miller. wtf? Central Maine? I would've thought they'd specialize in lumberjack sports.

Cassell is on that list of people who everyone knows will be a coach someday. Hopefully he learns under Flip.

Ironic since he partially caused Flip's end in MN

Yeah, that's what stood out for me. No grudges I guess.

I did not know that you can actually call Wittman a "coach" but "defensive-minded coach is just ridiculous. This is like calling me a sharpshooter although having trouble hitting open shots

LOL, article lost all credibility when they said Witt was defensive minded. I guess if they mean he's great at defending his ego and shoveling all the blame on his players then they got a point.

He may be defensive "minded", but that don't mean he can coach it lol. I look forward to seeing Sam on the sidelines, should be interesting.

Sam will be a good coach
