Patrick Ewing To Interview For Bobcats Job


Recommended Posts

Ewing, an assistant coach for the Orlando Magic, will interview with the Jordan-owned Charlotte Bobcats for their head coaching position, once the Magic's playoff run is over, Yahoo Sports reports. (The Magic, face elimination Tuesday night in Indianapolis).

Ewing and Jordan are not only Hall of Famers but longtime friends, so a possible working relationship is not a surprise. As CBSSports.com's Matt Moore notes, Ewing has openly lobbied for positions including the Knicks gig when it came available.

Last month, the Bobcats announced they would not renew coach Paul Silas' contract after the team finished 7-59 this season for the worst winning percentage in league history (.106).

If Ewing gets the gig, he has his work cut out for him. The Bobcats were last in the league in scoring and shooting percentage and lost 22 games by 20 or more points.

Golden State Warriors assistant Mike Malone, current assistant Stephen Silas and former Blazers coach Nate McMillan have also been rumored as candidates for the job.

Meh...

I dont know if I'd like this or not. Ewing just doesn't seem like a head coach to me. I don't think he's done a great job on D. Howard. Howard is still limited offensively, and he was supposed to be helping with that. Oh well, I trust Cho knows what he's doing when it comes to stuff like this.

dwight will never be nearly as skilled [offensively] as patrick ewing was imo. he lacks finesse and has a terrible shooting stroke. dwight would be better off with shaq as a mentor... a lot more similarities in their games. too bad shaq hates him.

Heard on espn and wfnz today that MJ is going to have a hands on approach to finding the next coach and there was no mention of cho. I heard that MJ plans to interview a fuging assistant coach at st johns, too.

Man this is getting more and more embarrassing by the week and I love it.

Jordan has a prime opportunity to make a good coaching decision and move this franchise forward. I hope that he does not stick with his MO and hire one of his buddies.

Another disaster like Sam Vincent would set this team back even further.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
