He saw the writing on the wall with a new coach, and decided to cut bait.

I landed in Amsterdam yesterday, and am still adjusting, so I am so disappointed I can't contribute meaningfully.

People logging on and seeing an Offseason News thread with 30 posts, and then finding out it is about the strength coach. SMH!

C'mon guys, we have bigger fish to fry.

They can skip the thread. We'll fillet them in on the details.

Shame I thought it was a reel catch when we hired him.

These are great, fellas. My wife asked me why I was chuckling at my laptop. Told her, "I'm laughing at a bunch of fish puns on my basketball web site." She gave me a puzzled look. "Don't you and your basketball friends ever talk about basketball?"

In all seriousness, you should tell her that if you are going to follow this trainwreck of a team, you have to be able to let loose every once in a while just for the halibut.

It's just ... on topic but not actually a joke. Dry humor.. Wait, is that a pun?

This is a long-winded way to repeat what we already knew about the coaching search. Ultimately, McDs job is on the line from here on out.

This is advocating for Kokoskov as the next head coach:

Something I am really struggling to understand--haven't we been complaining for years about hiring assistants to be head coaches?? Why are we ok with this hire, rather than making a push for someone that has already coached in the NBA, like David Blatt?
