What's new

Is Quin really a good coach?

He looks like a serial killer but he is soft. He have his favorites. He won't sit you even if you are playing crap. Young guys have no chance to develop unless you offer something above average on his system. Your impact need to be like Clarkson level at least or you won't earn any minutes.
 
those sound like the exact BS excuse for every other coach before they get fired.

"not sure playing guys X, Y, and Z would help us improve"

"not sure playing gameplan A, B and C would help us win games"

well, if you aren't sure, why not leave it to some other guy who's not afraid of trying new things
It's super weird that a poster on Jazzfanz says something and you respond as if Quin said it.
 
He’s good but when he does coke he’s a genius.

I think he’s solid but I’m not sure he’s the evil genius Locke and others make him out to be. I think he manages the guys well. We have successful schemes. He sticks with his guys for better or worse.

I’d put him top ten.
 
He is not a good coach. I could get the players to love me but I would suck as a coach. Us being down by 40 at the half vs. Toronto and then having the audacity to tell Locke that Dante just wasn't ready to play yet just chafed me. He drives me crazy with his rotation patterns and he ain't no Sloan or Frank Layden. I'm amazed the Millers hired him after all that went down at Missouri. His Missouri hijinks did not paint him as a high character guy.
 
I'd say Shaq has proven to be a good rotation player. The on/off metrics during his Chicago tenure paint a very favorable picture.

His on/off metrics the one year he had a real role (not tanking time) were amongst the worst in the entire league.
 
Quin is a great X’s and O’s coach. He’s a good coach that players like personally. He doesn’t adjust well at times, and I don’t think he’s a good motivating coach tbh. Quins rotations and adjustments at times aren’t great. Very smart basketball mind, but too rigid in his approach. So yes and no.
 
Quin stares at the sex machine, a la Clark Griswold at the Christmas lights not turning on, thinking to himself that it can’t be — he checked every bulb.
 
He has significant weaknesses that haven’t changed. His strategy boils down to finding the weakest matchup.

And he was a **** to Dante
