Sloan is reconsidering returning to NBA

Good for him.
I doubt he goes to Sacramento though. I can only see him going to an established team that already has all the right pieces in place.

"reconsidering returning" is that like a double negative? Sort of like i'm not not licking toads
"Reconsidering not returning" sounds better, doesn't it?

If D'Antoni doesn't turn things around in New York fast, I could see The Knicks making a play for him. The general consensus in NYC is The Knicks have all the pieces to be a top 5 team; but people are beginning to question whether or not D'Antoni has the leadership skills to bring this team to the next level (they're right). Plus James Dolan poshers himself as a blue collar type even though he was born on 3rd base with 25 silver spoons in his mouth - I'm sure he'd love to have a guy like Sloan on his payroll.
I just hope Jerry has the sense to say no.

Of course they do. They have their heads so far up their asses out there that they can suckle their own uvulas. Not only do they perpetually believe their team to be better than it actually is, they believe they have some birthright as a fanbase for their fantasies to be reality.
**** the Knicks. **** them now, and forever.

c. anthony would demand a trade before sloan arrives.
I would love to see Sloan go to OKC. Maybe he could get Westrbook to play like an actual PG.

Don't agree.
If Sloan is getting that itch to coach again I think this is the kind of team he would want to coach.
I remember Sloan saying one time the most enjoyment he ever got from coaching was the year after Stockton and Malone because it gave him a chance to teach the game he loves. Sloan would have a hell of a lot to teach this young talented team.
We would then find out what Cousins is made of. The offense would be run through him. If Cousins listens and does what Sloan asks of Cousins he could turn into a great player, or will he wilt under Sloan's no nonsense my way or the highway coaching style, and become the head case PKM says is not the case.
I believe this is the kind of job he would want.

I remember watching the pre game show before the Jazz first game after the Stockton Malone era. They showed a clip of Sloan talking to his players, one thing he said was that the experts were saying the jazz would be the worst team in the league. Sloan went on to say that if they (the jazz) would work hard play good defense and listen to him they would have a lot more success then what was being predicted by the experts. The jazz much to the surprise of everyone ended the season with a winning record and just missing the playoffs.

think what he could do for the Kings if they would just do what Sloan told them to do.

makes more sense to be the clippers head coach.
I like that they offset their innate advantage in free agency with sending all of their young players and picks away. Because to them, the regular rules don't apply because they are THE KNICKS. They won a championship 40 years ago. Birthright.
