POLL: Budenholzer’s future

[JeremyG]

What says the board?

[Split T]

I think probably not…but depends on what happens this summer. Book doesn’t seem to be sold on him…but if we are going to have a retooling year, might not make sense to ditch him.

[Cap]

Can we please not give the next guy a five year contract? If we’re going to keep firing the coach every year, structure the contracts accordingly.

[TOO]

I think they will fire him and go see if KY wants to come back for 12m a year instead of the 5 they probably could have hired him at the first time.

[Mori Chu]

Can we get Willie Green to leave NOP?

[Cap]

Can we get Willie Green to leave NOP?

Only if we drastically overpay him. Why would any in demand coach want to helm this disaster of a franchise? This is where coaching careers come to die.

[ShelC]

Based on absolutely nothing, I'm hoping we bring in Dudley. Chris Quinn might be another candidate. I'd also consider Kidd if he were to get fired but given his history here it's probably not likely.

Is Willie Green an in demand coach? New Orleans has underwhelmed since he’s been there.

[Cap]

Former COTY Monty Williams is now coaching high school.

Vogel came here with a championship resume and is now a “coaching consultant” for the Mavs.

Bud came here with a championship resume and is now one of the biggest jokes in the league.

This place is terrible for coaches.

[Superbone]

Wha whaaaa... Debbie Downer strikes again. It's getting repetitive, Cap.

I don't get it either.

Id rather take a shot on Quinn or another assistant who is ready to move up.

[ShelC]

Monty coaching HS has nothing to do with us tho. He flopped in Detroit and got paid out of a contract that ensures he never has to work again.

Vogel and Bud were bad fits, moves likely driven by ownership looking for another big name.

I think Sam Cassell would be a sneaky good hire.

[Superbone]

I think Sam Cassell would be a sneaky good hire.

Whenever I think of Sam, all I can think of his big smile in the playoffs when he played for the Clippers as he was walking the ball up the court before he got a half court violation that cost them a game before his smile quickly vanished.

Whenever I think of Sam, all I can think of is Roger from American Dad.

[JeremyG]

All I can think of is this:

[JeremyG]

I voted Yes, but the results are shocking to me so far. I thought basically the whole board was saying it was a given he wouldn’t be back, just a week or two ago. What has changed?

[Split T]

He started playing the young guys and the team looks better.

[The Bobster]

Or some people think the biggest problem isn't the coach.

You dump this shitshow off on another coach and you're likely to get the same results.

[Split T]

Well I don’t think anyone wants to keep the same show going. KD is almost definitely gone and Beal would be gone if we can trade him.
