The Non-Jazz NBA Thread in the Jazz Section

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Thibs just fired. Is Melo the Jazz Liller the next Knicks head coach?

LMAO. They should be firing whoever OK the Bridges and Towns trades

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Knicks have their best season in decades and fire their coach when the obvious issue was overpaying on trades is crazy to me.

 

[KqWIN]

What did Thibs expect when he tried to tell KAT to play defense again? Some people never learn smh.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

It's funny how winning coaches have zero job security these days, but Danny Ainge's son has 100% job security.

What a s****y league.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Hoop Collective is saying there are rumblings about the Raptors wanting to make a splash in the trade market to push the team forward.

 

[KqWIN]

TOR has to do something. Quickley/Barrett/Ingram/Barnes/Poetl is a terrible fit.

This is Austin's fault? What a weird take. . .

I think a bigger deal is that players generally don't like Thibs and his meat grinder. For the first time in forever, that Knick job is really attractive., They are looking for an upgrade and will probably get it.

Ok, so players want to contend, but only if they don't have to work very hard for it?

I'm sure the Knicks will do even better when they bring in some nice doormat coach and let the inmates run the asylum.

It's not about willingness to work hard, it's about Thibs playing a short rotation very heavy minutes throughout the regular season.

AI Shams with a good one.

The Suns thing is so weird, all of their hires are from Michigan State University. Why only hire from your old school, the results have been terrible.

What about bringing Thibs on as an assistant in charge of developing some semblance of a defense? I doubt he'd settle for an assistant job but who knows.

I would assume Thibs will get HC job within a year if he wants one. He is a culture setter and there are always teams in the NBA who want those guys.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Remind me again what Jason Kidd has done to become professionally immortal in the NBA?

Now the Knicks want him. Unbelievable.

The man is a clown.

He got Luka to play defense in 2023-24 playoffs.

Yeah and before that he discovered Giannis and turned him into what he is. Or some cringy BS along those lines.

Kidd is literally the most overrated NBA coach ever. Always in the right place at the right time.

If I brought him on, I would make him clock in at 70 hours a week.

Doc Rivers would like a word on that.

 

[SoberasHotRod]

It's kind of funny how NYK's coaching search/failure keeps getting leaked to the public.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

It's kind of funny how NYK's coaching search/failure keeps getting leaked to the public.

All the reports read like "Leon Rose made a pass at the married secretary and was denied". If they continue to do this I wonder if teams start to file tampering complaints. The report on Kidd was they were denied but still have interest and will still pursue... bruh... you can't do that.
