    Great, more nepotism. :rolleyes:


    Not saying Silas is a bad coach, I have no opinion of him.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this guy would probably be a better choice.

    Of course, before this past season, I would have said the same thing about JBB, that he would obviously be better than MDA. And we all know how THAT went.

    Can someone give a good cliffs-notes version of what would make Silas a good HC here?

    Is Lin the next target?

    clearly either way we go, D'Antoni or Silas, we are getting ready to REBUILD AROUND JEREMY LIN!!!

    total protonic reversal.

    also thinking about it. I feel Dantoni might be head coach and Silas might be the top assistant. I feel this is very very likely

    You could argue that JBB's 41-41 record is not really bad for his first season as coach.

    He managed to win 1 game against GSW (although without Curry), still not the worst resume tbh

    MDA and Silas would be a pretty good team I think

    Pros: He's "fresh" blood (ie not a retread)
    Cons: He's "fresh" blood (ie could be another Morey/FO puppet &mdash; He's new, let's pick his assistants, lets tell him this is how we're gonna play. More of the same?)

    I'd much rather we go with Silas than D'Antoni. He's more of a wild card, but he likely has better upside. Plus if we can't turn things around for a few years, I'd rather hire a 42 year-old coach who's hungry for his first opportunity as head coach than a 65 year-old who's had multiple stops(the last 2 being failures) and wants to win now.
