It just feels like there is a timeline if you get too cute with this hire that Brown is coaching Utah and we are stuck with Coach Jackson.Wish they could have held out fir Snyder
Would also be looking at potential deal for Mitchell

One things for sure though, hiring D’Antoni would only make Holmes a more appealing target for the Hornets.Offensively though, I can't think of a better fit as an offensive coach. D'Antoni going to push them for an all-time record in pace. Just win games 130-126
He'll potentially turn Ball into the best PG in the league though.

That's cool, Pat, but who the hell asked?Embedded tweet of Pat Riley getting his Jack LaLane on removed
It sounds like he's running for president, fats.
Of course Snyder becomes available after we hire a coach. I don’t care if people think he would coach here or not, it’s the fact we rush to hire someone way before anyone else, before playoffs were even done. At least the Lakers also hired before the announcement. Charlotte also deep in the hiring process, wonder id they would extend their search to include Snyder.
When Joerger got hired we got lucky because he was a late firing in Memphis. I seem to remember that we were rejected by 2-3 top targets before Joerger came on the market and we snatched him up. I honestly think hiring a coach when we did was prudent, especially lining up 3 top assistants as well and if the plan was to keep Christie onboard we didn't leave him lingering around either while negotiating and he might take another offer.
Snyder absolutely would be a sexy hire but I do think Brown has the better resume, and I really like the assistants he has brought on, which to me sealed the deal that it was a good hire. Let's not look at the grass on the neighbor's lawn because we could have no grass at all.
also consider we'd be competing with the Jazz for a hire if we waited.

The Aingemeister strikes again.
The talks about Gobert going to Atlanta are interesting. I'd imagine Collins would be going to Utah along with some other fillers. Gobert and Trae will be the worst pick and roll defense combo in the league but Gobert might finally get the ball on pick and roll offensively so there's that.
Going off of Ainge's reported demands, it would have to be something like Collins, Hunter, Okongwu, the 16th pick this year, and the 2024 1st to get it done.
