    John Calipari. Maybe a decent FA would actually want to come here?

    If Les is too cheap to pay Adelman, then he sure as hell not going to write a big enough check to bring Van Gundy back.

    That's not even taking into account of how JVG's previous tenure ended here, how HE doesn't play young players, how his ugly-ball style, etc etc

    Good answer. Let's see what Morey can REALLY do. If it doesn't work out, send both of 'em packing.

    someone please tell me what people see in Mario Elie's coaching resume that makes them think he'd be a good coach in the NBA???? i love him as much as the next guy but not sure what he's shown as a coach.

    i haven't heard anything so far about his coaching potential.

    i'm assuming people aren't living in 1994-95.

    He has played and coached under some good to great coaches and understands today's players. Being a former Rocket certainly plays a part of the equation as well.
