TBW: Lee and Green finalist for HC

[AusPel]

Perhaps. But end of the day, we know little about what Charles Lee would want. Might be that Bledsoe is better served as a trade asset.

Yes. Trade ASSET

[PolishFan]

That is true. For example We keep saying it?s junk people will believe it?s junk. Focus on what Bledsoe has done that is positive so far. Last thing we need to do is diminish his value. You brought up a good point.

We will have an Bledsoe appreciation thread after The Finals.

Well said

By the end of the month, Willie Green may have 3 rings as an assistant coach before his 40th birthday. He's also got experience playing in New Orleans.

Should he be at the top of the list of potential targets for the Pelicans head coaching vacancy?https://t.co/zyyFzDmj0M

Are we really gonna take Lee right to the finish line and choose the other coach, twice?

Lee probably waiting to first see if Budenholzer gets fired and he is up for Bucks position

I know that is not what is happening because Carlisle was told after Bucks won round 2 that Bud was coming back. Why he chose Indy.

Lee wants us. He has looked hard for assistants - I know several he has reached out to, including one on the staff he currently works with. Ball in the Pels court, Lee, Vinson, and Green all want the job

That's not a terrible list to choose from... none of them have any skins as HC, but it'll ultimately be on Griff (and Langdon) to give the new HC something to work with.

I just hope Griff sees the light now and realizes you can't win in today's game without guys that can SHOOT. He said as much in his presser after the season ended, but his moves will tell us if he truly believes it.

Any interesting assistants for any of the guys that you have heard (particularly some with head coaching experience)?

One, but he likely wont come because he was/is close with SVG.

Green has talked to J Collins, but he doesnt have any HC experience. The three guys I know Lee has talked to - none of them have HC experience. Pickings there are kind of slim. Brett Brown makes some sense. Sam Mitchell wants to get back into coaching. Maybe Mike Brown can be had if you write him a huge check. But pickins are slim

Makes you wonder if Green is going to bring people in from Golden State

Maybe Green can bring CP3

Well, Griff always said he wants to promote a family atmosphere here in New Orleans.

It's a bit trippy, are we waiting to see which team wins the finals before deciding on Lee or Green? Is this a Gentry 2.0 move? Lol

Well Monty 2.0 is doing pretty well. Don’t you think?

I continue to hear from NBA sources Suns assistant coach Willie Green is the presumed next Pelicans head coach.
While a deal is NOT done, plenty of mutual interest and I’m told, “Willie wants the New Orleans job and they want him.” pic.twitter.com/C7cNUMhDfy

One step closer I guess.

[Eman5805]

Crazy how it feels like he surged out of nowhere. I didn't even know he was a coach a month ago.

Like I said, I would love to see the universe where AD doesnt get hurt and Suns lose in the first round. I just cant imagine Green is a finalist, nor is he being championed by some Pels fans, but we are not in that universe, we are in this one

In your opinion, do you think he could be a viable coach?

Sorry if you've previously stated your analysis, I'm not looking through all these threads for that lol

Guessing this 2 champions won in GS as assistant would not have happened in alternative reality either?
