    Van Gundy just fired after one year. Early candidates are: Jacque Vaughn, Ime Udoka, Charles Lee, Jason Kidd, Teresa Weatherspoon, Fred Vinson, David Vanterpool. I would go with Teresa Weatherspoon or David Vanterpool. They are said to be looking at a coach that is a players coach and is good at player development.

    I think a coach wanting to push the pace will get the job. I think Ime Udoka, if he wants it, gets it. but someone has to figure out this defense. Maybe even Wes Unseld Jr. gets a crack at it.

      I have Udoka getting the Celtics job, which I think he would take over Pelicans.

    Supposively in addition to being a players coach and player development guy they would like to hire a former NBA player and flank the hire with some experienced Euro League coaches to bring a more European style offense to team.

    Adrian Griffin has also been added to the early list of candidates, but I think this is sounding more and more like David Vanterpool’s job to lose yes he didn’t play in NBA but he has Euro League ties and is a great player development guy.
