What should we do this off-season

[cam21224]

Get rid of Mike Phony, hope for Jim Buss to disappear, and beg for a miracle.

Get rid of Mike D then go after whom? Phil is out the question, Brian Shaw is as well. I'm not the biggest George Karl fan to be honest.

Mike is not a good coach at all, he'll make a better assistant some where else.

I'll take pretty much anyone, who is willing to preach Defense, who isn't stubborn and would adjust his system to the players he has instead of trying what ever the hell danphony has been doing the past two years.

He sure as hell isn't the answer going forward.

I'am reading that the Lakers are leaning towards keeping d'Antoni. I'am all for getting rid of him but only if we get a shot at a good coach. You can't change coaches every year with no purpose. Especially since the Lakers are still paying Brown and would be paying D'Antoni a full year. It also makes the organisation look bad.

We've been past that point when Mike Brown was fired 5 games in last year no?

When Danphony was hired and decided to run an gun with a old squad?

He took a top post offensive guy in Gasol, had him playing on the wing shooting threes or sitting on the bench for being in his doghouse. Won't even mention the Dwight episodes.

I'd like to see us pluck an assistant who hasn't had a shot yet, or if the Bulls front office ever decides to let thibs go, we need to make a strong push to snatch him up.

I have no faith in this team as long as Jim has a heavy hand in basketball decisions.

Can't afford hiring another bad coach. Either a really good coach is available or you let D'Antoni's contract run out.
