Cavs Fire Silas

Link

So, how long before Phil Jackson's name gets linked to LeBron's Cavs?

Don't know, but Silas should not coach Blazers that's all I got to say.

How long until Silas is linked to the Blazers job?

He has proven to me that he is a good coach. We could do much worse!!

Seriously.... Phil will be in Cleveland before the end of the summer. You can almost guarantee it.

Seems as though, Flip Saunders is at the top of the list also.

With Cleveland, Orlando and us looking for coaches this offseason - we can probably say GOODBYE to Phil and Flip. Why would they want Portland?

Has anyone other than Rick Adelman said they want/would like our job publicly??

I'm still campaigning for Eric Musselman.... but that's just me.

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

IMHO look for BILL LAIMBEER to be named the next coach

the new owner has some ties with Laimbeer

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

Wow, a lot of coaches are being fired this year. This should help cool some of the heat that the Blazers' management has recieved for letting go of Mo.

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

Silas is a good coach, but he was made vulnerable by the lurking presence of Phil Jackson. Does anyone actually believe that Silas would have been fired this late in the season if Jackson were not available?

These recent coach firings all fit a pattern. Teams are lining up to get PJ.

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

I'm sure that Jackson is going to use that Jerry McGuire quote with all the teams interested.....

SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!! :biggrin:

On the topic of Tom Cruise, I just saw "Rain Man" for the first time last night. Good movie.

And before you say anything, I'm usually the last person on earth to watch the movies that everyone has seen.

My Wish List...

1-Phil Jackson
2-Rick Adleman
3-Terry Porter
4-Flip Suanders

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

I would rather have Kiki or Musselman then Flip, Flip was getting pushed around by his players in Mini.

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

Damn, it must be stressfull being an NBA coach. You never know if today is your last day. IMO, Silas wasn't doing a bad job.

Re: Cavs Fire Silas

while I think LeBron is the perfect (typical) scenario for Phil...it just would feed the mindset that he's a coat-tail rider. And he knows thats his reputation.

Phil Jackson has run from challenges all his life, always wants the guaranteed situation.

A pompous coward who has proven nothing substantial in my book.
