If it were Vaughn we’d have had a hire. So it’s got to be Lee. Thoughts?
I think this is correct. The only way I see that it's Vaughn, is if it's offered to Lee and he doesn't take it (similar to the Lue scenario last season). Otherwise, Vaughn would've been hired already. Basically it looks like Vaughn is option number 2, and is possibly being talked up so that there isn't massive disappointment if he ends up being the pick because we were left at the altar.

Maybe a “new take” here, but the speed of our coaching hire has nothing to do with overall fan interest and support for the Pels.

Come on Son.

Not what I said, or meant. My take is that when a team in a professional sport is searching for a head coach it seems that at the very least you’d have daily fan speculation in the “Official” thread. Sure there are other threads moving, so maybe I misunderstand the Official designation. Perhaps the Official thread is for reported news that can be linked, for example?

And I’m not pointing fingers at anyone here, we are the fans that follow and care. Perhaps we’re jaded. No shade on any of you guys. I’ll hang up and wait for news.

yesterday's bit:
quote:

The Pelicans‘ search is expected to continue until at least later this week, with current New Orleans assistant Fred Vinson still to be interviewed, says Fischer. However, Jacque Vaughn appears to be the frontrunner for that job, sources tell Bleacher Report. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst said last week that Vaughn’s candidacy was gaining traction.

I guess once they give Vinson his courtesy interview, we're going hear something concrete.

Also, I’m pretty sure Vinson getting an interview is just a solid to him. It gives him experience in HC interviews and gets his name out there a bit in the HC circle.

I know, PoopB, but

With Brooklyn Nets assistant, Jacque Vaughn removing his name from the New Orleans Pelicans’ head coaching consideration, the belief in NOLA is that Charles Lee will be announced later this week.

They are just throwing shite against the wall, because that’s the most likely hire at this point.

Not that I can recall. He basically just throws a lot of crap against the wall hoping something will stick.

Nets top assistant Mike D’Antoni interviewed for the Blazers and Pelicans jobs. The Blazers hired Chauncey Billups. D’Antoni still is in the mix in New Orleans, which is likely finding a coach that will please Zion Williamson’s disgruntled family. LINK


Ny Post says D'Antoni interviewed and is still a candidate.

Smh. If we went through all of this to circle back to Vanilla Gentry...
