    Good move by the Clippers. Del Negro is a joke who was in way over his head.

    Which star PG will Vinny have the opportunity of coaching next?

    I think they should hire Mike Budenholzer or Stan Van Gundy.

    Finally. They'd be smart to make a run at Adelman.

    Shame, we don't need any more qualified competition. Here's hoping they pick up another bad coach.

    That's why Del Negro wasn't fired a year, or two ago, Sterling didn't want to pay anyone to not coach.

    I bet gave Paul "say" in this move they already decided. We fired him for you Paul. We will do our best to find you a new coach and target the players you said you wanted this offseason. Just re-sign with us so we don't have to act like we care what you think.

    Sterling will choose the cheapest option to replace him.

    I agree, dude has no clue. If they pick someone like JVG, could get interesting..

    imagine Clippers with JVG against the Warriors and Mark Jackson

    McMillan or SVG


    First option should be Hollins.

    (HOT HOT HOT HOT) rumor about Byron Scott. (Okay, maybe not quite as hot.)

    Everybody mentioned so far as a replacement would be an improvement over Vinny.

    Hiring Nate McMillan would be a huge mistake.

    Don't forget about Byron Scott, who supposedly is still close to CP3.

    Jerry Sloan would be the perfect coach for the Clippers

    Chris Paul would excel under him like Stockton, and Deron Williams did

    and I this sounds crazy, but Blake Griffin drew Karl Malone comparisons when he came out of OU
