any Tom Thibodeau news?

How is one of the best defensive coaches in the game still not have a job? Is he taking a break this season or what?

If I were a GM, I'd hire Thibs and pair him up with Mike D'Antoni and collect my 10 rings.

He's keeping his options open to see where the ball lands with George Karl and The Kings.

As he should.

What you would collect, are 10 injured players, not 10 rings.

[BlakFrankWhite]

Thunder will decide

what you'd might collect is Thib's offense + Antoni's defense

thibs is a red flag. he will push your players to the limit and run them into the ground trying to win.

You want the starting five to play 75 mpg?

Do you honestly see either of these coaches taking an assistant/associate head coaching job at this point in their careers?

Unstoppable force meets the immovable object.

[Big Cheese]

He only wants to coach a team thats already good, I heard he wasnt interested in the pelicans job because he wasnt sure how long anthony davis would be there.

[clipps]

He should reunite with Doc and be the Clippers Defensive Coordinator.

He does play his guys hard, but a coach who is driven to win and will push his players to the limit to get the most out of them is a red flag? A coach who wants to win that badly is not a bad thing. He got the most out his teams in Chicago and that was with their franchise player not playing years at a time. He's a good coach, he will preach defense and dedication. For a team trying to build a winning mentality, he's a guy who will get you there.

[HoopologyPhD]

I heard that he might sit out just to spite the Bulls since they have to pay him anyway and they pay less if he signs with another team.

All the best teams have coaches in place anyways so he knows he isn't winning anything this year as HC.
