Goddamn. I'd go get him right now, pay him, and give him until the offseason to start.

He’s also analytics driven, and understands the value of the 3pt shot unlike Willie.

Not sure if I want him. A lot of grizz fans said that his rotations are terrible, bad offensive schemes, doesn’t play to his players strength and he has lost the locker room. His record against .500 teams, playoffs and former players are terrible. Give me a different coach,

This is some casual arse analysis right there.

Grizzlies haven’t beat a .500 team since February. Look at his players minutes and how long he leaves them on the bench while they’re losing the lead.

Look deeper. The injuries have been mounting. You are looking at some stupid casual fan logic. And after all of that they are still 44-29.

Wait why????? He's actually a good coach WTF
I obviously do not KNOW this, but this move seems like it had to be forced by Ja. It’s really the only thing that makes sense why they would do something this extreme at this point of their season.

Then who would you hire?
Barring a shocking coach firing, there isn’t going to be a better more proven coach on the market.
We could always hire the next hot assistant coach name but who knows they might end up being Willie Green.
Jenkins isn’t perfect but he’s the best coach we could reasonably hire this offseason.
Phil Jackson or Popovich aren’t walking through the door

Casual fan logic lol. Like you know more than MAJORITY of Grizzlies fans. Whom I assure you they watch more of their team than you. Hell even the organization agrees they need to change the HC if you think they’re just casual.
Even with injuries, if you watch them, you can see they lacked effort also.

fricking fire Willie this instant and go snatch this guy up before someone else does. Convince him about getting to coach Zion and Trey as well as our 1st this year which is hopefully a top 3. I’m fine with any of Flagg, Harper or Ace Bailey. Flagg would of course be the guy you’d want but I’d be excited if we got one of the Rutgers players m.

Ja Morant played 43 games and they've won 44. Think about the stupid shite you're pulling from reddit and how dumb it sounds.
They were either 2nd or tied for second prior to Morant's last injury a week or two ago.
You are reaching hard with some really dumb speculation from fans.

Dumb speculation when majority of their fans are saying it. I understand if it’s a few fans, but it’s most of them are saying he’s not a good coach. However, I do give you that he’s a good development coach, but that’s not what we need for this team right now. We need a playoff caliber coach. Have you seen his record in the playoffs, even with Morant? Let’s see if Ja Morant plays tomorrow. It will speak a lot if he does.
Maybe I’m a bit bias cause I bet on some of these Grizzlies players and you will see how frustrating his lines up are. Bane can be torching hot and somehow he won’t play for 8-10 straight minutes. Same with JJJ. When you’re at this late of the season, you don’t try to play 12 guys, you lessen it to 8-10 max.
You can see the small mistakes he does in the regular season. That shite won’t cut out in the playoffs.

Bring Chris Quinn home. It sucks because last year had better candidates in Atkinson and Bickerstaff.
Posted on 3/28/25 at 3:25 pm to Balsamic_duck
this would be a dream hire. unless he raped someone i don't see how Griffindor isn't making a call sooner rather than later.

You're reaching hard as hell and can literally make a post like that about any coach in the league.
The culture, standard, and expectations for winning he's set for that franchise the last 5-6 years speaks for itself. You turn your nose at him because of some hearsay when he's proven to be successful even in the year they fired him is hilarious. In a season where Ja fricking morant missed half the season at that.

mediocre arse coach. We can not miss out on this opportunity to land an actual good one on a silver platter.
Don't forget Atkinson. But Willie Green and Griffin are fine. They're acceptable.

I have a strange feeling he’s going to end up in SA

DOES NOT MATTER! I don't care if he pistol whipped the owner. Offer him the job and a massive raise today.
