All signs point to Budenholzer. Not sure how much I love it, but also realize that a young guy would likely be a difficult sell to the current group. Hopefully he brings a motivational/strategic advantage.

Gambo says 2-4 options at most, will make a decision soon...likely within the next week.

 

[Proximo]

Well I don't think Budenholzer is a good choice. I would much rather try fresh blood.

Strongly suggests the plan is to run it back, which is a mistake.

 

[JerkFace]

If we are indeed only going to interview 3-4 candidates I talk to:

Mike Budenholzer
Nate McMillan
Chris Quinn
David Adelman

 

[Proximo]

Gambo saying Darvin Ham might be the head Defensive assistant for Bud

 

[Carolinacacti]

About time the axe came down

 

[Chaplin]

Well I don't think Budenholzer is a good choice. I would much rather try fresh blood.

Ok, why?

 

[Proximo]

Ok, why?

I remember why he got fired. He refused to double team Jimmy Butler who single handedly beat Milwaukee. It was obvious that is what needed to be done.

I don't really like any coach that is that rigid and unwilling to change.

I also remember the Milwaukee fans hated him, that usually happens for a reason.

That's it? What other examples are there of his rigidness? Not saying you're wrong, but that one example isn't enough to completely disregard his candidacy.

I am just sick of retreads in general.

Their ceiling is mediocrity or they would still have a job. You take a chance on a young guy and you might get lucky and get a great coach.

So I guess this answers the other thread as to whether we can blame Vogel.

I wasn’t looking for confirmation for blame

The theory was that Giannis wanted Thanasis to get playing time. Bud wouldn't budge on that. Its a players league, so they went with the player and not the coach.

If true, I like this but it will be interesting to watch KD's body language with Bud at the helm.

He should’ve been the first one fired

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.... i like how he doesn't bow down to superstar-dumb

As opposed to the adjustments, he made in the NBA finals that allowed Milwaukee to beat the suns?

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That should fix everything.

Gambo was just reciting all of the head coaches Booker (drafted in 2015) has played for the other day. Maybe the 7th one will be a charm for you guys.

Vogel was to blame for your team's failures about as much as Ham was for the Lakers. Both were just fall guys for failures elsewhere in the organization.

Can’t hold any pre-monty coaching failures against book. He didn’t have any talent around him those years.

 

[Covert Rain]

Ok, so it begins.

This probably means KD isn't getting traded.

This.

Gambo said just that earlier this week when they brought that up.

Becky Hammond. Weirdly interesting…

Bud feels like rinse and repeat. Sign retread former champion. Next year so same with rivers.

 

[Phrazbit]

Whoever gets the job they will be Durant’s 6th coach since leaving the Warriors. Only one of those coaches, Nash, whom Durant personally requested get the job then demanded to get fired, made it more than one season.

Still not sure if he's a good choice or not, but his record certainly doesn't scream "mediocre" to me.
