MourningView posted:Are we sure his defensive schemes are actually good? It's hard to separate that from personnel but I think it could also be a case of his defense being so influential that teams have figured out ways to successfully counter it. I'm fine with him not selling out on defense constantly but he can't be a tick above 2016 James Harden like he was the second half of the season.

How offended is Derek Fisher than he hasn't been able to somehow get himself into this discussion? At least he hit that one shot and E: I did not realize they already gave him the pity hire with the Sparks lol

Welcome Boston Celtics fans. I don't fully understand what went wrong, probably a lot of things, but the Celtics have the tools to reload and try something different.

6 mil per is pretty decent for a first contract with a team, and pretty standard for dudes on their second job after getting fired (like, it's what coach Bud is making). Guys don't usually start making bucks unless they survive to the second contract with a team. Maybe the Knicks will beat that next year if Fizzdale is the fall guy but that's pretty much the deal other teams are gonna offer too. I dunno I wouldn't have minded the Lakers beating it because they have the money and I really do believe in Ty Lue but it kind of feels like another Rich Paul overplay.

I don't think they can, they wouldn't have the cap space unless Horford also declines his option. Utimately this is all pointless unless Hayward is magically fixed next year. You can't give up a max slot contract for a replacement level player and still hope to be competitive.

morestuff posted:Is there any reason why a team with the Lakers' resources would actually care about this I'm guessing that they want a coach who's on the same timeline as LeBron, but yes it's loving stupid. You give them the 5 year contract because it's worth it at this point just to stabilize things.

I mean unless you're targeting a coach out of college or someone high profile I don't see why they should offer 5 years to a retread coach who's never lasted 2 years on the job. Seems like a big ask for an uninspiring option. But I guess I see the logic in trying to get it done.

morestuff posted:Is there any reason why a team with the Lakers' resources would actually care about this Aside from money it's probably better to have a coach's contract end vs firing him from an optics point of view so a shorter contract at least gives you that. Honestly though, I think the Lakers are probably not working from a great plan at this point.

Redgrendel2001 posted:I'm guessing that they want a coach who's on the same timeline as LeBron, but yes it's loving stupid. You say this like five year contracts are common for coaches but they aren't. It's usually 3 years or 4 years for a coach that is in high enough demand that they can demand something extra. And that 4th year is actually a team option half the time. Like BMV said, college coaches often get a 5 year offer to lure them over but even that is rarer these days.

Like BMV said, college coaches often get a 5 year offer to lure them over but even that is rarer these days. It's not exactly rare either, though. The last few hires: Monty Williams - five years Luke Walton - four years Jim Boylen - undisclosed but reportedly "likely" three years Nick Nurse - three years Dwayne Casey - five years Steve Clifford - four years Mike Budenholzer - four years Lloyd Pierce - four years James Borrego - four years David Fizdale - four years Mike D'Antoni - four years Nate McMillan - three years Scott Brooks - five years I'm sure salary and options play a part in the contract length, but holding fast on three years for an experienced coach still seems unusual
