Not a source. Same with the LegionHoops dude or anybody that isn't Shams or Woj or Stein or anything.

I'll leave this open since he is a possibility, though.

Agree. With WeHam in charge I see a very thorough coaching search. We have botched the last few hires so we really need to hit a home run here.

He might end up being right, but it's just a prediction based on a shrinking short list of known candidates - the Magic have interviewed Udoka, Vanterpool and Stackhouse. Posters here get predictions right all the time... difference is we don't pretend we're credible sources like the attention whores on twitter.

If we believe the rumors Popovich would have to hire a whole new coaching stuff this summer, all of his assistants are about to be hired by other teams as head coaches.

Udoka interviewed but this could just be a guess.

We shall see.

All of our head coaching interviewees are black so far, unless we really interviewed David Blatt? We were also on the verge of interviewing David Fizdale. So I think odds are really good that we are about to get our fourth black head coach in franchise history! 8-)

Looking both Hammond and Weltman, they are not afraid to hire a black coach or executive.

Weltman: (inherited both Casey and Vogel)
Brian Shaw-Ujiri made the hire but Weltman was influential in decision.
But got Ujiri his job as a scout who returned the favor and hired Weltman as Raptors GM.

Hammond:(Stotts and Skiles were his other two head coaching hires)
-Jason Kidd
-Larry Drew

Any chance we could interview Spurs assistant coach Becky Hammon? She's interviewing for the Bucks head coaching job against 9 candidates. I'm not saying we should hire her but at least give her an interview and pick someone else unless Becky is really a serious candidate in their eyes.

I don't know if Becky Hammon is single but if she is, this could potentially fire up the players to do things like dive for loose balls, talk healthy trash on the court to teammates,etc. Players could be playing with a extra juice inside their body if they find out she's single.

Wouldn't mine interviewing her to see how much she's truly absorbed from Pops. She is gay and married to a woman. Although I read that she may have had an affair with Tony Parker, it's been denied.

The dream of a threesome might get Vuc to contest at the rim. "I got this rim, you got mine, naw mean?"

On a serious note, the whole premise is obviously pretty absurd.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.
