A guy like Nurse seems to only care about winning.

Boston throwing their hat in the ring would really irritate me. Plz bring home Nurse!!

1. Nurse

Huge gap

2. Atkinson

Griffin's domestic violence past should be an automatic disqualifier imo

Was kinda hoping Quinn would have been a finalist with the hope that he can rub some heat culture off here.

Nurse is clearly the #1 clear cut of the 3. Not excited at all if it’s one of the other 2.

Bring me Nurse. Close the deal Wesley. Pretty surprised Quinn didn’t make the top 3 but maybe that would have been a bad look for us.

Feels like Nurse has been the guy from the beginning and everything else was going through with the required show, but we'll see if they actually pick one of the other 2.

It honestly really irks me that Griffin is even a finalist with his DV history. After the Kidd fiasco I'd have hoped they have learned. But I guess Haslam and Edens have each shown that's not a deal breaker for them

Sell me on Atkinson here? I’m fine with it since he probably is able to call a timeout with .5 seconds left but he just feels like a non drunk version of Bud

Dream hire of Lue seems to be completely over but that’s a really **** solid final 3, can’t be mad at any of them.

I'm interested to see what he's learned in GS. Sounds like he's revamped his offensive and defensive schemes quite a bit from his Brooklyn days. Any system that will promote ball movement and passing, perks my ears up.

No Doc, No Mark Jackson, no problem. Sucks Quinn wasn’t the 3rd finalist over Griffin and I wasn’t mad about Vogel being a possibility but Nurse or Atkinson would be perfectly fine for me. Still believe in my heart of hearts that Chris Quinn was worth the risk but who am I..
