I guess we’ll see what happens on the court.

i know what you mean, he seems a little goofy. i think it can be a really good personality for this roster actually, but a lot is riding on what his assitant lineup looks like. he seems suited to be a vocal leader and unifier type with various specialized personalities contributing to the decision making and training process. things won't turn out good if the front office gets in the way and his bench is just father of jalen and darren errman again though lol

From interviews, Mike seems that he's got a great sense of humor but as we saw from the video of him in Kings practice he will absolutely cuss these guys out if needed.

His OCD is probably what I like the most. This guy will pay attention to every detail.

I think your missing something. I already explained I don't know how it works for him to leave them. That's got nothing to do with being interviewed. You're losing the discussion and telling me I'm wrong.

You're both wrong replying to my original comment. They can deny lateral moves. We don't need permission to interview him again. Where it goes from there is where I was not sure.

why are you like this ?

Please. I explained my position. You can't read.

As far as Borrego...he was denied permission to interview for an asst job elsewhere. Why? Because teams can deny interviews for lateral moves. So while having that discussion...I asked what it would take for us to get him. Selby then said he has to ask out.

At no point in that discussion was it made aware that they can deny him from leaving... Which I asked.

Thanks. I went and found the answer on my own. Pay attention.

again......why are you like this ?

Why are you like this? You can't follow a discussion but want to act like you did.

I was discussing the INTERVIEW PROCESS. In case you aren't paying attention again. You chimed in about them denying another team permission to interview as asst. I agreed. I then EXPLAINED MY POSITION that I don't know what it takes to get him but WE DON'T NEED ANOTHER INTERVIEW. Are you following along still?

So after the exchange with Selby I thought he just had to ask out and then the NOP get compensation from us. I explained that as well. Then I went and looked it up myself. I then posted those results

Keep dragging it out all you want. Why are YOU like this? Pay attention!

there are plenty of young up and coming assistants we can give a promotion with assistant HC.

I would be worried if I was Willie green ... new management for the Pelicans and a resistance to allow their associate head coach to go on other interviews

No. You two are not understanding. We already interviewed Borrego. We don't need permission for another interview. He knows we want him. We already talked to him. if he's interested in being an assistant here instead of HC, the ball is now in his court. The Pelicans have to hope he's not interested in leaving them.

I explained this three times. The denial was for another team to interview him for asst. They can deny that all they want. It makes zero difference in relation to what's being discussed now.

I believe the only thing left would be for him to decide to leave and, what we have to pay the Pelicans to get him. This is where I am a little unsure but, Selby says it so, it's a fact,

jesus christ blunston. the interview is not the point. they can just refuse permission for him to take this job whatsoever because it's a lateral move. he has a contract with the pelicans. they would have to release him from it. they could even refuse him to take the head coaching job if they really wanted to but teams don't do that because it looks bad.

Kind of an archaic rule. This isn't a player we are talking about.

This sucks.

Pelicans holding coaches hostage for their sh*tty franchise.

Borrego will likely be the head coach at some point this year after Green is fired.
