This is going to take forever to find a new coach. Dumars is going to be in Italy to see some of the some prospects for a couple weeks and wont be back for a few days before the draft. So we probably won't hear much until after the draft. I guess youre right about Woodson having experience, but still, he didn't do shit with that experience. His records with Atlanta definitely weren't worth looking at lol.

Their record improved every season he was there.

You basically were, since you were implying they were both terrible coaches when neither are.

Did I say he was?
He is just as "terrible" as Byron Scott.

And losing twice? lol
You act like the roster they had has nothing to do with it?
Both Scott and Brown got to the Finals with really talented rosters.

Woodson clearly did not have a talented enough roster to make the Finals in Atlanta.

Woodson has had plenty of talent in Atlanta to get to the finals but he could never put it together..

And since LeBron had no help according to everyone, apparently Mike Brown led a team with one good player to the finals.

Joe Dumars: “As our organization moves forward and prepares for the future, the search for our club’s new head coach is a priority and will begin immediately. However, at this time, we do not have a timetable for hiring a successor. We’ll conduct our due diligence privately and announce a decision when we’ve identified that individual.”

Not at all. Atlanta is a good team, but anyone who says they are a title contender is wrong. You know this, don't play dumb.

LeBron isn't a good player lol. He is the best player in the game, which makes Brown's job a bit easier.

They aren't a contender because they don't have a coach who can get their guys to play together. They replaced Woodson with a rookie coach and actually won a game in the 2nd round for a change..

And so what, Mike Brown didn't have a talented roster. And the only reason LeBron knows what the word defense is, is because Mike Brown.

Or cause they don't have a PG to lead the team, or a legit starting 3/5 (depending on who they start where).

And only reason any Atlanta player is good defensively is cause of Woodson.

Joe Johnson practically is a PG for them, but just plays at SG. And I don't know why you just called Al Horford not a legit 5.. And Marvin Williams is a decent starter at SF, not to mention having the best bench scorer in the league.. Pretty much everyone in the Hawks starting lineup is a good defender without the help of Mike Woodson..

I said depending on who they start. If Horford is at the 5 and Smith at the 4, then Williams isn't a starting caliber SF. If you put Smith at SF and Horford at PF, then you have a horrible gap at center. I think Horford is better fit at the PF spot though.

And how can you say that, but then say LeBron is all Brown's credit? Were you present at both the Hawks and Cavaliers practices?
