Speaking of Dray doing pods right now...Remember Bron promoting "Zero Dark Thirty Bron "during the playoffs? Is that still a thing?

Kidd is one that comes to mind. Apparently there was only 3. Don’t know the others.

Hiring JJ as a head coach would be a wild move.
You can take a swing on guys like Nash & Kidd cause at least they were floor general and had accolades.
If you looking at JJ you midas whale bring in Balldontstop and Gil to interview also.

I'm all for these organizations thinking outside the box with coaching hires and getting outside the normal retread comfort zones.
But man, JJ Reddick would be WILD.

Jj reddick need to pay his dues
Become a shooting coach or something first
This is similar to the colts hiring Jeff Saturday which was a disaster.

It feels like a recent development. And off the top of my head:
- Willie Green: Was an Assistant
- Monty Williams: Was an assistant
- Steve Kerr: Was in a front office
- Darvin Hamm: Was an assistant
- Jason Kidd: Skipped the Line
- Steve Nash: Skipped the line
- Steven Silas: Was on a bench
- Chauncey Billups: Was on a bench (For a year but still)
- Ty Lue: Was on a bench
- Doc Rivers: Skipped the line almost three decades ago and it was the Magic who cares
*I have not named all the names this is not a perfect list*
*I am also not discounting the fact that Kidd & Nash were HoFers*

Luke Walton was an assistant for two years then got the Laker job.

Steve Kerr taking credit for Mark Jackson's creation never sat right with me.

Coaching is really a talent. If you think he can see things quicker and make the adjustments right away.
Get him. Raptors should blow it up and get younger so that means the coach too.

Yeah because Kerr used Mark Jackson's system
This team would have never done what they did with Mark Jackson. FO got the pieces but Mark Jackson couldn't make them go. Kerr put the engine in.

Some players are better at breaking down a game than they would be at coaching. I think you have to have a certain personality to be a head coach in the NBA (part tough guy, part nice guy, part motivator, must have credibility) and also have good communication skills. I for one think Tim Duncan would be a great coach. I don’t think GP would do well as an NBA coach but if he does well in his current college job the sky is the limit.

Only thing Kerr has done is take Mark Jackson's players and ride KD to championships.
Terrible at scouting and player development, TWO lottery draft pick misses, this is why they're about to get eliminated now.

Didn’t KD and Kyrie want Steve Nash? If my stars are saying they want a certain coach regardless of experience the front office will listen.

This has to be the most dedicated yet insane thing I have seen in my time on NikeTalk. And I was here during the raw, Wild Wild West days so that is saying a lot
