To me, putting Laimbeer in the head coaches seat is a no-brainer...and Mahorn otta be next to him...those guys have worked championships together...both playing & coaching. |
If the NBA no coaching experience is a no brainer, please tell me who had a successful run doing it with no experience.......The Scott Skiles example is a good reference to an earlier post of mine; that an assistant head coaching position is a better fit for Lambs right now. Skiles got his career off as an assistant with Phoenix before becoming a head coach.
If winning, and being coached by a legendery head coach is a lock on becomimg a winner, then Magic Johnson should have been one of the better head coaches in NBA history, and I could name many more........
