Agreed. Monty out coached Pop last night

The exchange between Monty and Pop was great too. He was genuinely happy and proud of Monty. It probably is a great feeling for Pop to see one of his former assistants to achieve something like this.

He still has a lot to prove IMO. If we get swept or are only competitive in 1 game, I think all the reservations about Monty remain. On the flip side, if we are competitive or even do the unthinkable and win, we may have to change our minds about Monty's ceiling.

Agreed, Monty did a great job last night.
I think he and Dell get another year.

Thoughts on Monty Going Forward
Monty has coached great last night and over the last few weeks. He has bought himself a stay of execution IMO, but if we get swept or play like shite in the first round I will be back on the fire monty wagon. IMO he needs to win atleast 2 games in the GS series to be safe.

I really felt the connection between Monty and the players and this franchise and city last night in the celebration. You can tell how much it means to him. And I felt a little guilty for how many times I've posted #firemonty. I think this experience will make the team realize how important it is to come out with that fire and intensity every game, and that's the main thing I've been angry with him about. If the team starts showing more consistentcy I'll be content with Monty as our coach

Good Post, I agree with most of what you said.

There’s no doubt in my mind I will go back to being a fickle fan and get frustrated with him but to take this team to the playoffs, he bought himself some time and I’m ok with that.
My exact thoughts.

I loved last night. He called TO’s any time it even looked like we weren’t on point or when SAS made a little run.
YES!!!! I don't know what got into Monty, but I hope he does this more often. He really did a great job last night coaching.

Monty has been solid over the last few weeks, and he held the team together.
I don't think he is the long term solution, though.

monty coached his dick off, him and dell really have done a good job at putting together a team with some pretty tough constraints.. Plus, with all the injuries and getting some effective Veteran's by getting rid of some trade bait IE Rivers, it's been great

Monty should be commended for getting into the playoffs. Win or go home game, they played very very well. The team seems to genuinely like him and that counts for something.
But I doubt he's the long term answer. Doesn't mean you can him right now. TBW or BSS asked if Monty was Randy Wittman or Kevin McHale. I still lean towards Wittman. I'd be leery of giving him a big extension.

100% agree with everything you said CQQ. I have been a huge critic of Monty for the wrong reasons. He has really done a fantastic job with what we have had to deal with in the form of our best players being injured. I'm actually really surprised how far we have come in the last 3 years. Every year we have been improving upon the last. It's all thanks to that CP3 trade really.

He's almost like a quasi-father like figure of a coach. Watching him dance like a dad last night was hilarious 
His coaching style, and the connection with his players reminds me of John Thompson, Chuck Daly, and Larry Brown. guys love him like he was their father. It's rare at the NBA level and it is nice to see a guy that genuinely cares and loves each of his players.
I think about guys like Dante Cunningham, would almost had his career derailed and how Monty took a chance on him when no one else would. Or guys like Ryna Anderson, who he cried with him his girl commuted suicide. There's a real love there, and despite his ongoing development as a in game tactician, we are truly blessed to have one of the better people in basketball as our leader .
Honestly, he's the right type of guy to have around AD as he blossoms. Guys won't let him down

I think Monty has gotten a bit better as a coach, but he can continue to improve. I think his strong suit is his ability to get along with the players and get them to play hard. The Pels have got to get much better at small forward and decisions have to be made concerning Ryno. Quite honestly Babbit out played Anderson in my opinion. Hopefully we can keep Cunningham. I guess we need to keep Asik; he does defend well and rebound. He is just bad on the offensive end.
