Zimbra Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Monty Williams won't be returning to the Thunder and has turned down interviews elsewhere. It sounds like he's taking time to work things out. I hope he comes back to the game sooner rather than later; he seems like one of the genuinely good dudes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I'm excited to see Wiggins and Towns further develop defensively too. That could be a scary perimeter/interior defensive combo on top of all that they can do offensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that, recent history has been kind on his coaching record. I disagreed with how he used guys in his last few years in NO, but they actually won games with a poorly constructed roster. And he didn't try to stretch the springiest PNR big in the league out to the 3 point line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Scott Brooks in as DC's new head coach. The Knickerbockers are choosing between Kurt Rambis (Phil's choice) and David Blatt (everyone else's). Adam Silver has said the '17 All-Star game will move out of Charlotte if the North Carolina anti-LGBT law stays in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case it's a dumb hire. The only value Brooks has would be recruiting Durant. If he can't do that what's the point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
