Anyone else pissed that it seems pretty clear (at least to this point) the team didn't have anyone lined up as a successor to Monty before they fired him?

Not at all. This is the deepest coach pool I can remember since I started following the team 7 years ago. I think part of the reason for firing Monty now is because you have so many options. 2 successful coaches were fired for creative differences, not failure (Thibs and Malone), multiple high level college coaches threw their hats into the ring, AND, there really aren't that many vacancies considering the number of coaches available.

Not really. All that matters is that he's fired.

Not at all. This isn't like 5 yrs ago when we weren't an attractive landing spot. I'm glad they are taking their time with the hiring process.

No, you shouldn't keep someone who is incompetent around just because you don't yet know who you're going to replace them with. They obviously felt like there were many candidates that could replace Monty and do a better job.
