I will be discussing the hire of Nick Nurse by the 76ers and will discuss my thoughts about this announcement. I will also be discussing the Toronto Raptors who are in the final stages of hiring a new head coach and have moved onto 2nd interviews.
Make sure to follow me on twitter for the latest surrounding the Raptors and NBA news.

Guessing Adrian Griffin beat out Nurse with Giannis backing him, but maybe Nick Nurse did have a choice between Suns and 76ers. Agree with you Suns probably didn't want Nurse
Joel will need to play 40 mins now..
Suns are going to have no cap space and their ownership are unlikely to spend over the tax threshold since the organization is kinda poor
Here's why I think it happened:
1. Nurse is petty asf
2. Nurse is managed by Clutch Sports
This will not work. That team does not fit his defense mindset and Embiid is not play 40min lol
Earl Watson should be the new Raptors Coach.
Don't care.. we needed change. I think he took it because he didn't get Milwaukee
This isn’t to spite the raptors . Suns cap situation is terrible with new CBA and second apron level
Sixers have more flexibility unless harden walks , which seems unlikely .
That said , nurse is going to shorten both embiids prime and overall career guaran-sheed
we dumped Nurse for a reason, where he goes shouldnt concern us. He's the Sixers problem now 😉
Raps should offer the coaching job to none other than Mr. Raptor himself Kyle Lowry.
Nurse is going to have a hard time coaching Embid. He's too moody, and Nurse didn't handle Toronto well when they got down last year. Good luck….. he's going to need it!
its obvious
Good luck with those guys
Chris Quinn sounds like the right fit because our most effective priority should be player development.
SUNS didn't go any farther than Sixers in playoffs! Sixers have better front office than Sun's. Nurse chose strategically, as you would expect!
From a Doc to a Nurse. The Sixers just downgraded.
Nurse is more defensive minded and the Suns are a pure offensive team. Is it more likely he chose the team that suits his skillset better or that he is just being petty?
we all know nurse won't play the 76ers bench
White Men are just the best leaders in the World (all you have to do is compare culturally Western countries to non-Western countries).
With Black coaches, you have to give them the very best talent and hope that they don't mess it up.
In comparison, White Coaches can get players to that next level, and win multiple titles.
This is pretty much the trend in all professional sports around the World.
If you want to win and be a dynasty, then you need a White man in charge.
History by the numbers doesn't lie.
Most betting sites have Scariolo first and Nash second as the Raps next coach with other names like Fernandez. If any of those two get hired the organization is going down the toilet. A big part of being a head coach is massaging all the players and their egos and getting them to buy in because they believe in oneanother. Those two dont have the ability to demand the respect and control the locker room. Would be a major disappointment. Draft is like 2 weeks away and hoping that the reason they haven't got their coach is because it's Adelman and they waiting after the finals.
As soon as it's starts going south, Nick will other priorities than getting at Raptors. Philly is not as polite as Toronto.
DAF NURSE WAS FIRED! None of raptors business where he ends up! Same with FVV,GTJ,SPICY! RAPTORS going the wrong way with Scottie the bust BARNES! RAPTORS STILL waiting until good coaches are gone.Maybe just what the DR. Ordered??
