I wonder if any Pistons voted for Flip.

You weren't allowed to vote for your own coach. I'm sure Darko, Arroyo, and Delfino all voted for Flip, though.

Isn't Flip a "player's coach"?

Why wouldn't guys want to play for him them? Any ideas?

Because he's not good enough to win on a high level in players view?

Maybe cause most players would rather get yelled at by a coach and win a ship, than have a nice little tea party with the coach and flame out in the conference finals.

Or maybe they just can't stand reading that massive playbook of iso's he's got.

it obvious most these players arn't interested in winning a ring.... Mike D'Antoni is never going to win anything with his style but lots of scoring records... and the second that nash hangs it up or has a drop off that team is done.

There are only two coaches today that i would want to come to detroit and as much as I hate to say it Jackson is one of them, hate him to the end of time but the job he's done in LA this time around has to make some of us that said he could only ride two superstars to titles rethink how we judge him. The other is Pop and how anybody doesn't list him highly doesn't know a thing about the game or care about the ring that there suppose to be working for.

Avery may have potential but not sold yet. Nate in the same group. as for the rest good coaches but not somebody i trust to get me a ring.

Riley has lost what ever he had, and never have been sold on his coaching....

I thought he did a great job motivating his team to come back on Dallas a few years back.

But Flip was coach of the month in December...

I thought the refs did an even better job of letting them back into the series.... but his i'll take over the team now that its ready to win a title this year gimmick was weak as it gets...
