I’m confused on why either of them would leave their current positions as assistant coaches to be an assistant for a rookie coach. Unless they see the potential fallout of JJ getting fired mid-season and replacing him

I think JJ lowkey could be good coach cuz he demands a lot and doesn’t bite his tounge plus he has a high iq.

Why would JJ want assistants that will be doing everything they can to make sure he fails

That’s the best they could get?

So Pelinka going back to picking a coaching staff?

LeBron would love to have Dudley

Bring Dudley home

I mean…duh. JJ shouldn’t even be offered the job unless he has secured a strong coaching staff under him including at least one guy with previous HC experience (ie Borrego, Stotts, not Fizdale).

A strong staff with JJ i wouldn’t be too mad. Obviously ideally we’d have a more experienced coach and my guy is still ademan, but if we go JJ then a strong staff is a must. Idk if you can get all of them, but if you can that’s pretty awesome. Borrego and Cassell are by all accounts really strong assistants. And dudley would be fun.

the staff has always been my concern. i wouldn’t mind JJ at all as HC if it came with an experienced supporting staff.

How the fuck are you gonna galvanize older coaches with actual experience to a first time 39 year old as head coach

We did this with Vogel too. It worked then. He had great assistants including Kidd. Then we let ham pick his own and they were no good.

This sub so negative I hope JJ kills it and y’all have to flood apologies

I have zero faith in JJ as a coach and i don’t see him as some modern day Pat Riley but I’m willing to be proven wrong

JJ, Dudley, Cassell, Borgeo sounds like losing recipe…are these really the only available options? Yikes Hope the roster doesn’t follow this same trend. Winning takes experience, look at the two best teams in the playoffs.

Minny is now down 3-0. This may push the availability of Nori sooner.

So, instead of poaching the lead assistant and Xs & Os guy for the team, who has consistently help facilitate really great offense. Which I understand they have jokic, however, still great concepts.
We go with a good former shooter who has two podcasts and sits next to Michael “bang” Breen. What are we doing here.
