Is cheeks a good coach?

I think we've got a bit of a pattern of hiring "nice guy, class act, professional" coaches. All well and good, but it doesn't necessarily get you wins in this league. Larry Brown was a headstrong jerk who wanted to do things his way, but it worked. Someone in that mould might be more suitable.

Yes, would definitely like to see Laimbeer get a go. Obviously the women's game (where he's had a lot of success) is different, but he knows what it takes to win as both a player and coach. Five championships (two NBA, three WNBA) says a lot.

We've been blaming coaches since Larry Brown, it's time to start placing the blame on the players and Joe Dumars

well said
