Today is the day?

Lionel Hollins leads the Grizzlies to a WCF after trading Rudy Gay and gets fired that some off-season? We need to sign him, no doubt. Will we? Doubt it..
 
Gonna be awesome when Corbin is re-signed. Then, after another off-season of internal improvement, the Jazz have a better record next year and everyone talks about Corbin's 'improved coaching abilities'

O'Connor remains the Jazz's executive vice president of basketball operations, but he is no longer the team's primary decision-maker. That job belongs to Lindsey and his new assistant general manager, Justin Zanik. O'Connor will scout for the Jazz, in addition to offering advice when Lindsey or Zanik ask for it, which will probably be often.

Thanks for the info. I was mistaken as well; I thought KOC as EVP would be Lindsey's boss. But I do remember that whole snafu over whether or not KOC had been dismissed or was still employed by the Jazz. I don't think we know the whole truth about what happened. Sounds like KOC was going to step aside completely but they convinced him to stay on in a "Yoda" capacity.

I'm guessing 30 wins.
But Lindsey is going to have to fill the roster with undrafted rookies. Otherwise the #4 and #23 picks will never see the light of day.

I'm gonna bet Ty stays as coach. The reason? The Millers and a poster here said Ty was baptized into the Mormon Church this past year with Greg and Gail in attendance. If that's the case it's a game changer.

Thurl Bailey was baptized into the Mormon church. It was quite some time ago, but I can see how you would get them confused.

Changing religions in the name of job security?...Ty is going to hell.
 
Hollins WON'T be the next coach.....and here's why:

Hollins was fired because he was fighting management. The Grizz went very analytics/stats based (they hired Hollinger). Lionel Hollins is an old school coach and their philosophies weren't matching.

Dennis and Zanick are very into analytic's. So the styles again don't match up.

That makes sense. Having said that, to get a job Hollins maybe be willing to compromise on the advanced stats thing. DL wants to build this thing with defense and Hollins is the most proven guy in terms of coaching defense in the NBA among the available candidates.
