| Re: Coaching carousel already spinning
Quote: The New York Post, citing a league source, is reporting that Scott Skiles has verbally accepted the Milwaukee Bucks' offer to become the team's next head coach.
Skiles will fill the opening left by Larry Krystkowiak. Krystkowiak was fired by Milwaukee's new General Manager, John Hammond, last Thursday. The Bucks finished with a 26-56 record last season.
Skiles' defensive focus, a match with Hammond's last team (the Detroit Pistons) seems to be a key factor in the hiring. | HOOPSWORLD | NBA News, Rumors and Information |
