I agree with you but who stands out in the field as a big man coach? Could bring in Ewing but I doubt he'd be interested since he's busy collecting his golden parachute from Georgetown. I remember the old days of Clifford Ray. The big man is a lost art in the league.
Nobody realistic jumps to mind.
My unrealistic thoughts start:
-- Kevin McHale, who had the skills, and has kept up with changes to the game enough to know to change emphasis away from what was crucially important only in the old days.
-- A certain ex-Celtic who, when he was a young player on another team, had that team's GM tag in as his de facto position coach. (Hint: That guy is named "Kevin" too.)
Wait: How about Tyler Zeller? He was pretty alert offensively. I presume he had great high school coaching, considering how well his whole family did. He spent 4 years at UNC before the pros. And of course he has brothers to compare experiences with.
