I think Monty had 8 coaches, now Vogel's up to 8?

That's basically one coach per rotation player. Miles Simon? Ew.

I dunno, I just consider him kind of a dope and a loser. He was so utterly unimpressive in the NBA that it lowered my impression of him. I guess that isn't a direct indictment of his coaching, but it does show a certain disconnect and lack of understanding.

Simon only got 19 minutes of playing time in his entire career. Kind of hard to judge his performance in the NBA.

I think it's pretty fair and easy to judge it as an unsuccessful NBA career. :P

It ended up as a 9-man coaching staff, with Young being the only holdover from Monty's staff:

Each rotation player will have a dedicated coach. :P

When I see the size of the coaching staff, I don't see why a team, going forward, and especially a contending team, carry 3 two-way players, dedicate two player development coaches, and essentially run 10-man scrimmages with the two-way players and the seven non-rotation players on a regular basis, even when the team doesn't have their man practice time. Have each developmental coach be in charge of a five-man unit and have them run the practices/scrimmages.

I really hope the two-way stuff keeps expanding. Once we get a g-league team everyone will have one. Can only be good for nba and development to grow the g league.
