Why'd they fire him? I don't keep up with a whole lot in the NBA besides the Hawks

Because he isn't a very good coach, and got in a fight with the VP of BBall operations John Paxson.

They would like to match up a new coaching staff with at least one and possibly two full boat max contracts next season.

I predict they end up with 1 or 2 2nd tier guys like Boozer or Johnson, and the pipe dream of Bosh and a real coach passes them by.

Unfortunately.

^ A starting line up of Rose/Johnson/Deng/Boozer/Noah would probably be worthy of the 3rd best team in the east if that lineup existed this past season (with a decent coach). Still, I think that of all the potential FA's this summer only two (Lebron and Wade) are worth max contracts even though a few others like Bosh and Amare will get them. I think there will be a lot of overpaying this year and that will leave a lot of 2nd tier guys out on the street desperate for even a one year or two year deal. Then the Bobcats can swoop in and get some good stop-gap contributors.

You are exactly right.

Lots of hopes are being pinned on Wade and James, and neither one of those guys is going anywhere. That is awesome news for dudes like Bosh and the rest of the pack, as teams will get desperate to do SOMETHING....and overpay.

That will be the Bulls, and most likely they will end up with a mediocre coach...again.

Least you aren't a Hawks fan. We have the talent to beat Orlando or Cleveland or anyone but Woody couldn't motivate a retriever to fetch.

      All I can say is... I have some happiness off the rags choking and losing to the Panthers. Hopefully the Western conference team wins the Stanley cup, but now I can be 100% uninvested in the playoffs

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
