No, Gentry is the first shitty name. I'm not a Skiles fan but the guy has a far better record than Gentry. In 12 years as a HC, Genrty had 1 winning season. Skiles has 13 years as a HC and has 5 winning season and a higher winning percentage. The talent Gentry and Skiles had to work with was pretty much the same.

Skiles isn't coming here. The Pels are using him and he's using the Pels; both are creating leverage to use against their real target.

I disagree with the "Pels talking to Skiles to create leverage" talk. I don't think there is a ton of genuine interest, but I do think it is the team during their due diligence.

We have Anthony Davis, what other leverage do we need? The only candidate that we share in common with another team is Gentry with the Bulls (that we know of), but that job isn't opened yet, and it's well documented that Hoiberg is their first choice. If we want Tom Thibodeau, JVG, or any other coach besides Hoiberg, he's ours.
