the Hawks have the longest playoff streak outside of the Spurs and he was assistant or head coach the whole time. why would they fire him? and why shouldn't we consider him if they do?

I believe this is the Hawks situation: When Danny Ferry took over as Hawks GM, he didn't offer Drew an extension. So the thinking goes that he'll let Drew walk and hire his own coach.

Don't have any insight on the Sixers process (or lack of one).

ah, didn't realize his contract was up

I don't know too much about Drew, but the Hawks have come a long way since the early aughts

Wow, since 1970, the Hawks have made the playoffs 27 times, but have not advanced past the second round. They are 0-15 in the second round in that span.

It's important to note the footwork. 3 years, 50 million.

something very sad and symbolic about the potential of Hornacek coaching here.
This is what a real tenderoni likes to do for you

Read that Wiggins is the best high prospect coming out of high school since Durant.

Are there any exciting coaching candidates or is it the same retreads?

Hornacek is quite possibly the whitest white man in the history of white people

I don't know. Keith Van Horn was pretty white.

Will Hornacek rub the side of his face every time he calls a timeout to say hi to his wife and kids?

I'd argue Shawn Bradley has them both beat.

What about Wayne Brady? He makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X.

i think the sixers should just bring in barkley to be president of basketball operations. i would tell him to keep dileo as gm as i think he is a valuable in the scouting department. seriously, what is there to lose? he would at least bring a level of excitement and one liners to a team that no one will care about and will suck anyway.

Would Chuck even want to leave his current job? Seems awesome for him. Studio is where he lives, he can say whatever he wants and gets to do it for college now too.
