Captain Hi-Top 791 Report post Posted July 10, 2012 Three thoughts: 1) DoM has secret mind police?!?! 2) I now wish there was a Panda Express near me 3) It kind of sucks that we are in the position to hire a new coach, and seriously looking at a guy that Dwight was rumored to want here in Shaw, and yet also looking to rid ourselves of the Dwightmare at the same time. I really wish we had kept Stan around to help mold these young guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Secretly Space Jesus 670 Report post Posted July 10, 2012 This is grossly understating Rambis' situation. Please go back and read my post on the previous page. Rambis was put into a bad situation, but I'm of the mind that his teams were moderately better than the record he led them too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Live or Die Magic 383 Report post Posted July 10, 2012 Rambis was put into a bad situation, but I'm of the mind that his teams were moderately better than the record he led them too. Fair enough. I cannot argue against someone's opinion. I do not know if Rambis is a good coach. But when he had players that were recognized as being good, he had a good record. When he had players recognized as being unproven, he had a poor record. It is my opinion that the next Magic coach, be he Malone, Shaw, or Whozit, will have a poor record in his first season and it will be unfair to judge his coaching job solely on the W/L record.

I think reasonable people would agree that this is the case all the time, not just in the first year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C'mon now, you know that "reason" and his good friend "rationality" have zero place or purpose in sports fandom. We do tend to judge our coaches on their W/L records don't we? And rings of course. Star players don't want to play for a coach unless he's got rings! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nCoolness 79 Report post Posted July 10, 2012 DoM mhm. Cool Story man. Good to have little debates and then gets to the "nitty gritty" at the end. Keeps this thread and forum interesting. Oh btw if you are referring to me a being "arrogant" not "ignorant", thats fine because thats the way I am. :lol: Thats how majority of the NBA players are these days if they want to succeed. You can call them "ignorant" or whatever. They are still successful player and still proud of who they are. Criticism will make players/some smart people stronger and more successful. I will close out by saying this. Top three Magic Coach candidates: Shaw, Malone, Hornacek. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ML6 520 Report post Posted July 10, 2012 Legitimately not trying to pile on here, but attempting to converse with nCoolness is just going to be fruitless. I've been back on the forums for a little over a week and I have yet to read a post by him/her that hasn't been horribly misguided or offensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
