Any chance Magic will hire a coach before the draft lottery or would they be willing to wait until Raptors are eliminated to interview Nurse? 

Yes

I'm not particular about who we specifically hire as long as they have the following qualities:

1) A strong grasp of the X's and O's of the game itself

2) Strong inter-personal/teaching skills to facilitate player interaction

3) A willingness to adapt their system to the personnel when/where necessary

4) Sufficient self-awareness to know their own strengths and weaknesses, and

5) A willingness to hire/accept input from assistants to bolster those weaknesses.

Add in:

6) A willingness to bench players that aren't playing tough D regardless of their salary

7) Doesn't sub out/in 5 guys at a time

8) A willingness to leave the "hot hand" on the floor

9) If we happen to draft Trae Young will give him the green light to shoot the long shot.

10) The ability to change game plans in the middle of a game to suit what is happening on the floor

I think we really need to hire a coach before the draft process. It is essential to have our coach secure before then so we can focus all our attention to the draft. Also, having the coach available to help with the draft selection process is important as well.

Do you think managment was in Europe interviewing Mr Platt?  ;(

Not likely but I know Knicks are and he would be a good fit with the Knicks if Knicks hired Blatt

Still think we should pay up for Bud. But if Stotts is fired I’m putting him right behind. 

I sure hope not, ever since Budenholzer won 60 games, his record has declined ever since

Probably because he went from a rotation of

teague-korver-carroll-millsap-horford Schroder-bazemore-scott

To

Schroder-hardaway-bazemore-millsap-Howard thabo-muscala-delaney

To

Schroder-bazemore-prince-free space-dedmon
