It’s gonna be Mosely. An awful fricking hire.

It should be Rondo or Borrego if Rondo doesn’t want it

couldn't get out of the first round in the east, locker room was apparently dysfunctional, and fresh off choking away a 3-1 lead in the playoffs.

I'm not really sure how anyone could be ok with that hire given our current state.

If Rondo is hired, he would need an experiences associate HC. That could be Ham or Mosley.

As soon as he got fired everyone in NBA media immediately started mentioning the Pelicans. Windhorst said he expects Mosely to have a job soon. Seems like a pretty open secret at this point.

The Bulls just hired their president today. That leaves the Blazers and Pelicans. The Blazers owner is so cheap he might try to have AI coach the team.

Only Dumars would be waiting in the wings to scoop up that resume

3 playoff appearances in 5 years. 2 division titles. Yeah, no one would ever hire that guy.

We could and have done far worse. SI has a good take that Orlando pushing Detroit to a game 7 actually helps Mosely with appeal to all the better franchises.

Mosley may have helped his reputation by forcing a Game 7 against the Pistons. If that is the case, he may choose to wait for another opportunity rather than accepting the Pelicans job. With plenty of coaching vacancies expected to pop up this offseason, Mosley may not be too desperate to accept Joe Dumars' offer.


Unfortunately we’re to wait until everyone else makes their hires before we get to choose.

Mosley is basically Willie Green.



How are they similar?

Mosley never played in NBA. He played a few years internationally, as a big. He has been a coach for 20 years. Going up in titles over that span, being a head coach for the past 5 seasons. His teams have gotten better each year until this year when his "star" busted up the locker room and nobody could stay healthy. Obviously his front office had it out for him and scape goated him, to excuse a very flawed team.

Green was a 12 year veteran NBA guard that coached for 5 years when we hired him, never as a head coach. Ironically Rondo would be more like Green than Mosely. Very similar backgrounds and progressions. Moseley is a lifer and a grinder. Sure he has weaknesses and short comings. But he has a good resume and you have to respect how he's come up..

Great let’s hire Mosley! (sarcasm)

However, their momentum eventually collapsed as they lost control of the series and failed to close out the Pistons after building a 3–1 advantage. The defeat is now being labeled one of the more notable playoff meltdowns in recent NBA history. Orlando has become only the 15th team ever to squander a 3–1 series lead.

quote:

The top-seeded Detroit Pistons were dead in the water on Friday night. Trailing 3-2 in their first-round series vs. the Orlando Magic, they were down 22 points at halftime and looked well on their way to a first-round elimination. Not so fast. Not only did the Pistons rally to win Game 6, but they did so by a score of 93-79. Going from down 22 to a 14-point win is wild. Credit the Pistons for the largest comeback win in franchise history, but a 36-point swing over a single half only happens if both teams cooperate. The Magic, who once led this series 3-1, more than did their part by going in the absolute tank, coughing up the biggest second-half lead in a potential clinching game in history. They scored a truly pathetic 19 points in the second half. That is the lowest single-half output in a playoff game in the shot clock era (since 1955). Just look at these laughable numbers.


But he is not like Willie . Yea okay.

I don't know what that means. You keep saying that like it's obvious. Are you just saying he's a bad coach? That his team had a meltdown?

Unless he's out of money, there is no need to ruin his future coaching prospects by being the HC of the 30th best team in the league.
