Jay Wright doesn’t leave Nova. And despite my love for him, I don’t think his style would fly in the pros

not a big fan of college coaches going to the nba – doesn’t work out very well most of the time

According to Eskin, he stated that they want an experienced NBA coach. So I don’t believe Wright is really being considered, maybe just mention him to keep the door open and give him some applauds??

Eskin contradicting himself and his own reports…that sounds familiar.

Send him some roses

Unsurprisingly when asked for public comment – the sixers deny deny deny

avery johnson

would make sure jrue stuck with it on defense, and he’s proven he can coach a team on the rise (dallas).

Also, im new here and a knicks fan at heart, but i live in philly and have always enjoyed watching the sixers. plus they at least have something to look forward to in the draft. good luck landing a top 3 pick.

Avery Johnson burned out in how long in dallas? with a pre built great team.

Did he get moer out of dallas than rick carlisle did? or don nelson?
