Sam Cassell

Does the fact that we keep adding names to our interview list mean we don't like anyone we've interviewed so far or are we just trying to do a bunch of people favors?
 
Agreed that he seems like a guy who wont take guff which seems like something we need. However, I dont recall him having a high basketball IQ as a player

I know nothing of of Cassell as a coach or personality, but what everyone is saying is getting me excited.

Well here’s another: he’s had aims of being an NBA head coach since well before he retired.

There’s been a lot of talk recently about the value of grinders. He’s been doing that and obviously loves the game and the task of coaching.

I’m not sold yet but I’m not bummed he’s getting an interview.
 
He was the star of his college team that included NBA players Charlie Ward and Bob Sura. Ward also won the Heisman Trophy. If I recall he was a junior college transfer.

I didn’t realize Bobby Sura was that old. I remember his name would occasionally come up as a “shooter” when we (as fans, never the FO, apparently) we’re on the hunt for someone to fill the huge shooting void Hornacek left when he retired. It always baffled me because his shooting numbers always sucked. Not sure if being a white guard made people think he must be a shooter, but the numbers never showed that.
