Sources: Ewing To Get Interview For Bobcats Gig Thursday (Updated With News!)


Recommended Posts

Straight from the NBA ESPN page...

The Charlotte Bobcats' coaching search will continue this week when owner Michael Jordan's club interviews Hall of Famer Patrick Ewing on Thursday

Ewing, a close friend of Jordan's and currently an assistant coach for the Orlando Magic, will be the biggest name yet to speak with the Bobcats.

The Bobcats are also going to interview Mike Dunlap (St. John's University Red Storm: Associate Head Coach) today and Dave Joerger (Memphis Grizzlies: Assistant Coach) on Friday.

The Bobcats are also said to have Stephen Silas (Charlotte Bobcats: Assistant Coach) lined up for an interview for an unspecified date.

The Bobcats have already interviewed Mike Malone (Golden State Warriors: Assistant Coach) and Nate Tibbets (Cleveland Cavaliers: Assistant Coach).

The Bobcats have also shown interest in Brian Shaw (Indiana Pacers: Assistant Coach), Nate McMillan (Portland Trail Blazers: Former Head Coach), and Jerry Sloan (Utah Jazz: Former Head Coach).

Patrick Ewing has a "good chance" to become the Bobcats next head coach, a source tells the New York Post.

Take this for what it's worth. Ewing has been considered a favorite by some because of his noted relationship with Michael Jordan, but the team is doing its due diligence in interviewing a multitude of candidates. There is no reason for Charlotte to rush its decision after winning just seven games this season.

    • T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
