I'm not saying we're out of contention for Ham, but he seems to be as popular as Lue.

quote:

Malika Andrews @malika_andrews Oct 6

Bucks assistant coach Darvin Ham is set to interview for the Clippers head coaching job this week, sources told ESPN. Ham, who is also a finalist for the Pacers’ head coaching spot, will meet in person with the Indiana brass over the next few days.


Also, I think SVG could help build the culture we're talking about. We keep talking about bringing in Heat Culture, Stan is steeped in it and JJ speaks pretty highly of him. His name might be higher up the list than you'd expect for a retread that hasn't had much success lately.

SVGs appearances on Lebatard soured me on him. But he is a smart coach.

I’m going on record as saying passing on Dan Craig will be a huge mistake. I hope we do something like him and not go after a name like Lue or Van Gundy

He’s just kind of a nut. He says some really outrageous and totally insane moonbat things. Smart coach though.

I shouldn’t have said anything because that’s all this thread will be about now.

Something about the silence and timing makes me think we are going to make a push for Craig first.

Craig is probably my favorite choice of the assistants. I just have a hard time believing Griffin goes that route.

My guess for the 9:

Lue
Atkinson
Ham
Vanterpool
Unseld
Moseley
Craig
Weaver
Griffin

Final 4

Lue
Atkinson
Unseld
Craig

I don’t really get the hype for Unseld honestly

Agree. Could be one of the 9 that was interviewed. He could have been interviewed while in bubble.

I am going to guess that at least two of the names out of the nine are names that have never been mentioned on this board.

I fully expect Griffin and Langdon to consider some unorthodox candidates.

Definitely agree. Possibly even a Euro coach thrown in there.

I bet some of the non finalist leak pretty soon in the form of “_______ removed himself from consideration” tweets

Certainly possible. But we have kept things extremely close to the vest so they may not leak until after the hire.

I think if MDA had interviewed here, that would have almost certainly leaked.

Coaching possibilities:
• Clippers could make a decision this week with Mike Brown as a strong possibility.
• Jason Kidd is a candidate for the Pelicans job.
• Mike D’Antoni is still a candidate for Pacers job. David Joerger’s interview wasn’t impressive.
Dont know this guy but it looks like he works for The Athletic
