It's because at the end of the day, he had more bad years than good.

I can see two quality coaches left that shouldn't be.

Anyways, what's the due date for the pimping?

I'll be kinda busy this week, so hopefully by this upcoming weekend...

So pumped to have gotten Alex Hannum...his personality and coaching style will blend well with the guys I have. He will be the voice that people in the locker room hear...not players with big personalities trying to run the team.

PIMPING WILL BEGIN AS SOON AS THE FINAL PICK HAS BEEN MADE

It will run until through Wednesday to give everyone time to get their stuff up. Remember, this IS part of the judgement process. The better job you do explaining your fit and why your team will be successful over the other 19 teams in this league, the higher the score you will receive. While pictures and all that are nice to give it some flair...substance is key. That doesn't mean a novel...it just means making good points to back your statements.

Thursday, we will begin the judgement process. I will give more details on that later on.

Yeah? Like which ones?


Lenny Wilkens for sure...I wouldn't have put him in my Top 20. Rick Adelman & George Karl to much lesser degree.


Wow you really don't like Lenny Wilkens. I'd like to see your top 20 list. Wilkens might be tops in longevity, winning in several different eras. He never coached Jordan, Magic or Russell, but he still won a title.

Kinda glad I have no more picks, my girlfriend was yelling at me for checking my phone too much during our vacation.

Still have to pump out that pimp thread though haha.

Ive been really. Hw these past few days so I didn't have time to properly look for coaches, but Rudy t caught my attention. At the end of the day the coach wont make the greatest of difference.

Definitely a good choice. I could have gone with him but I thought it was just too predictable and easy. He would have gone well...being that he coached two of my guys to titles...but where's the fun in that?

Updating everything now.

Well, at 6:17 PM...we can start pimpin' our teams, as the last team will be OTC...plus two others. Whenever they get around to making their picks, they can start as well.

This will go until Wednesday and then on Thursday, we will start judging.

I'll be sending out an e-mail to further detail how the judging will work, as well as posting on here.

nvm
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.
