I get that it's a bad look, but you seriously can't keep Budenholzer after this season.

I was of the opinion that they can't fire Bud because that would be like the 3rd time in 3 years and any new coach would not trust the ownership. But I now think that everyone can see that even with the team we have that we should be doing much better and understand he needs to go. Missing even the play-in with Booker and Durant? Unacceptable! I actually think most people will be surprised if he isn't fired. We need a new coach that would be willing to take this team on as a personal challenge and whip the players into shape. Someone with real balls. Someone like a Daly, Jackson or Riley. I know those are few and far between and no one like that is likely available any time soon. I don't follow college ball much but maybe they should start looking at those ranks to see who might be the next coaching badass.

I honestly think you ask LA what it would take to talk to Ty Lue, if the price is too high, I think you give Sam Cassell a call. Maybe Jason Terry? I think this group needs a former player to coach them, especially if we're keeping KD (which I would honestly like to do).

Let’s give Cassell a call, and see if we can get Horry to be his assistant and Elie to emcee at the games.

I want Fizdale removed from the state of Arizona.

You really have a thing for him. What gives?

He's just another BS cheerleader coach.

I really don't know anything about him other than his famous quote and how he's been working with Bol who is looking pretty good these days. Oh, and I think I saw he has a hot wife at some point or am I getting his confused with somebody else?

Fizdale was 7-12, 17-65, 4-18 in his last 3 "seasons" as a head coach. Stay far away from that guy, interim or not.

Hmm. That doesn't sound promising.

And he isn't even good as a lead assistant
