If Boston cut Stevens, they'd have a locker room revolt like the Kings got with Malone. There is some question as to whether his system holds up over the long term, but that Boston roster is a half-way point waiting for a star trade.
Stotts may be another thing though. Not sure why Portland would move away from him though. Winning is not job security anymore, so there's no solids.

Stotts is frankly scary, because he's the guy the idiotic league wide joke of a franchise that is the Sacramento Kings always hires. The guy who tries to go win with offense not defense. We NEVER hire the defensive guy. Generation after generation, proving that ignorance is like a disease you pass along. there is such an opportunity here. We can do anything. Which has for 30 years meant we'll almost always do the wrong thing.

Maybe things are turning around for us this would be epic I wanted Frank but I rate Dave way higher.
Just watching Dave and his passion on the sideline you can hear him screaming through the TV, when he interviews he's super calm and a very bright guy we should throw all the money in the world at him. If there is ONE flaw he has not really showed the ability to develop young players aside from JaMycal Green I can't think of another Grizzly young player that's got significantly better but that could also be that most the guys they have picked have been crap and are of the L but I feel if I'm going to give a fair assessment I have to bring that potential red flag up.
I'm ALL in for Dave Joeger I think I was the first to bring his name up in the other coaching thread that's how much I wanted him.

one thing thats certain as a kings fan is to not get too high or too low when it comes to something like this, IMO. I always expect the worse and for all we know Dave can be using the Kings as leverage to go elsewhere, however, money does talk...everything else walks so I don't really see any other reason he would want to come and coach here to be honest. Brand new shiny arena maybe? ooooohhhhhhhh
What a conundrum.
Do we wait for another outstanding coach to be cut loose or go with what's in front of us now. If stotts or Stevens are rumored to be on the edge I may just wait a tad longer. I'm with some previous posts, wth is going on with these better than average coaches being cut loose?? Teams have gone mad....

Joerger over Stotts please.
Hopefully us saying we want to wait is just negotiation posturing.
I'd rather we just skip the hoo haw and ink him.
And Boston is seriously considering firing Stevens? Did we switch owners with them or something? That is about as idiotic as firing. ... well. .. Vogel, or Joerger. ...or Blatt....or Karl. .....
..... j/k on that last one.

i've seen no reports anywhere online to suggest that this is even a rumor, much less an actual possibility. i don't know if someone here at kf.com was speaking out of turn, but i'd certainly like to see a source. danny ainge doesn't strike me as the impatient or impulsive type. he's got the long game in mind for boston, and brad stevens is too excellent a coach to fire when ainge certainly recognizes that this celtics roster isn't yet talented enough to contend for a championship...
beyond that, i'm definitely on board with the kings' pursuit of dave joeger. vogel would have been my preference, but it remains unclear if he'll interview with sac, and both joeger and vogel pushed their respective teams to overachieve in the face of injuries and overall talent deficiencies. that the kings are even in the conversation for either coach strikes me as a good thing...
i hope vlade plans to be aggressive, though. his search has been really extensive so far, and while other good coaches may yet hit the market, sometimes you just have to strike when you have a legitimate chance of landing a guy like joeger...
