Borrego I'd be cool with.

Mike Heller Show really pimping the Tony Bennett idea.

Have no opinion on Borrego, like Monty as a person but not as my team's coach; Fleming is well-respected for making Brose Bamberg a respectable Euroleague club, but I don't think he's coached in an environment demanding enough to become an NBA HC yet.

I can finally get back to rooting for the Bucks to win.

Good god no. Maybe my second least favorite hire just narrowly behind Earl Watson.

Really? Some of the smartest coaches are guys you haven't heard about....Brown, Atkinson, Budenholzer, young Spoelstra....give me a smart guy, who's a great communicator and has an excellent system

Ah yes. How does a guy who came from the spurs implement one of the last iso centric offenses in the league

Tony Bennett from Virginia is a really strong candidate, also has the Brogdon connection (prob a huge reason why Brog is such a smart player)

Bennett and Kidd are like complete opposites: Bennett emphasizes smarts and discipline and Kidd is dumb as s**t.

I'm not sure Bennett's defense is any good in the NBA.

Monty Williams has been our lead candidate since news broke. That is uninspiring

Meh. He really needs a 9 year track record of sucking to make sure. And even then he'll have his supporters.

Sure that's how he should act.

But it's not like Kidd is known for exiting gracefully.

If there is one positive thing I will say about Jason Kidd, it's that he seems to have shown a lot of growth as a person. I would be surprised if he was anything but classy in his exit.

Just one?

Also lol.

That may be more about soccer culture than European culture.

Borrego, the one that coached Magic? What a disaster that would be.
Month is an uninspiring retread.
Hammond, no idea, could be great or terrible.
Blatt eh, Messina no idea. Kokosov is the hottest euro guy.
Stack would be nice too.
Don't know much about the red, Udoka, Bennett...
And hell no to Mark freaking Jackson.

Well there's been no female coach in any major American franchise. Or any major European team. You think Lebron would take a female coach seriously?
