Kerr is a name to win the press conference, but once a guy like him takes a high level TNT job and gets paid millions to talk... I just don't think he can be trusted to last very long as a coach. Look at Doug Collins... every few years he leaves to scratch that itch but he usually only last 2-3 years before he wants an easier life. Kerr would be no different. When things got tough as GM of Phoenix he quit to go back to broadcasting after 3 years. I think we want a guy to grow with like... Horny unfortunately.

Maybe if he would have bricked that shot in '97. That's like a 100 year wound though.

I don't think you will have to worry. I doubt he is interested in the Utah job. I am not sure if we are interested in him.

Steve Kerr trying to save face after all but declaring Jackson would give him the Knicks job.
"Hours after the Jax ax finally fell on Woody, Steve Kerr threw his hat into the ring to officially become the heavy favorite to be Phil Jackson’s first head-coaching hire.
In his first public comments about the Knicks, Kerr said he “anticipates” talking to Jackson about the head-coaching opening that was created by the firing of Mike Woodson on Monday morning...
...Kerr acknowledged he’s still tight with the Zen Master after winning three titles with him in Chicago in the 1990s, and even attended Jackson’s daughter’s wedding.
“We’ve remained close over the years, since he retired from coaching,” Kerr said. “Even while he was coaching the Lakers, I would often have dinner with him on the road if I was playing for another team even, just to catch up.
...A source told The Post’s George Willis last week Kerr “absolutely expects” to get the offer and has talked to TNT about rearranging his broadcasting schedule for the playoffs."

That is the normal lifecycle for most NBA coaches anyway.

I would be OK with him teaching the players how to shoot. But HC. I'm still on the European coach bandwagon and am gonna stay there until the seat is empty as Cyrone Torbin's heart.

I wonder if the "west coast" job will be Golden State?

This pretty much sums it up perfectly. Why would anyone want Kerr? He has limited experience and based on his crappy commentating, I pretty much disagree with everything he says.
