Yeah but Pablo got that Euro conservative point guard mentality. That ain't gonna help Frank. Pablo used to turn down mad shots. Pablo was not a penetrator. Pablo was defense and ball sharing first. Pablo's philosophy would be redundant to Frank's existing strengths. We need someone to help develop the weaknesses in his game and to mold his mentality to be more aggressive offensively. Pablo is not the right hire.

I would look into a guy like Rod Strickland.


Yeah definitely which is why I think he'd be more helpful to a Mudiay.

Everything about Pablo is right for developmental coaching

His game, his attitude and his physical conditioning. He would be great.

Also this writer doesn’t know how to use the word “coup” properly in context

I agree

Just teaching him to keep his dribble would be an improvement
Teaching him to drive north and south. Not east to West as well.

Frank, look for a play not just to get out of the way

I hope he gets hired on

Still my favorite of our PGs in our recent years, which probably says more about how we have handled the PG situation more than anything else

Ummmmm, not just for Frank. He'd be a much bigger aid for Mudiay with his defensive skills. Pablo was a good defensive guard with limited athleticism. He knows all the tricks/angles on that end.

Ensuring Doncic's transition from Spain to NBA will go smooth next year, good thinking.

I keep saying we need Andre Miller to coach up Frank. He wasn't fast as a player but he knew how to get to his spots, score in the post and rebound. He played at a high level below the rim for over a decade. Obviously, I would also love Nash or Stockton but they seem like pretty big reaches.

I'm not sure what Pablo would bring.

Pablo would be a great addition to the staff.

That man is a whole culture unto himself.

Why Pablo i would bring in billups to teach this guys about defense and leadership or Baron Davis for offense and there is also Kidd whose IQ is greater then our entire coaching staff.

Get RAMBIS OUT! And Schitztying and all these cronies they all suck. I've sat behind the bench and listened to these clowns and they add almost nothing.

Yeah Jason Kidd would make a great NBA coach.
