I think this is exactly why an actual HC search should happen, even if Doug is the front runner. I thought he did a very good job this year. If the Fox drama doesn’t happen, I could have seen us winning 45+ games which would have been a great accomplishment. But he also didn’t have his own staff and couldn’t really implement anything new - especially after the Fox trade. So I think that’s why we ended up with the simplistic iso ball so often (in addition to the poor roster construction/fit of Deebo/Levine/Monk). I really don’t have a great feel as to whether Doug is a good tactician or not. Let him interview, give his vision for the team — short and long term. Does that fit with Perry’s vision? If so I’m perfectly fine with him a coach the next couple years at least.
