Re: *** Official POBO Search Thread ***
I wonder if it's true that Billups is only interested if he can hire his own coach and his name is not Ryan Saunders. Listening to Chauncey announce last night, I kept thinking he might be a nice person to fill that role if he has the ability to do the job. He's got a nice patient calm demeanor. He was a former great point guard. He understands the modern game. Booth might be more qualified however at this time, but who even knows.

He seemed to like Flip. They worked together in Detroit too, didn’t they?

I'm sure of all the candidates, Glen will hire the wrong one.
Did I say "wrong"?
I also meant cheapest.

Re: *** Official POBO Search Thread ***
I can't find where I saw it yesterday, but rumor was Chauncey wanted to hire his own coach. I think Billups has too much common sense for this franchise. Is it sad that I almost wish nobody ever got hired by this franchise just because I want to protect them?

I wanted to start a thread but I don’t know how to embed tweets and news, so better you did lol. Booth would be 34th on my list. Billups is interesting because you could maybe see players wanting to play for him. That ex player trust factor. But he has little experience to be fair.flexbuffchest wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2019 10:32 am Might as well start one up.

To embed a tweet you just post the link.

To be completely fair, that’s what Doogie has said repeatedly on his podcast. Lue and Billups are extremely close, Lue is Godfather to Billups son. But that’s just Doogie. I haven’t seen Jon K talk about it, or anyone nationally.flexbuffchest wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2019 2:31 pm I wasn't aware if the Lue thing with Billups. If true than I don't want him.

Lue goes to LA. If Billups is hired he keeps Ryan as they are close.

Brent Barry latest rumor as a candidate for POBO. He is currently VPOBO for San Antonio. Have no idea how that might impact on Layden.

Re: *** Official POBO Search Thread ***
Other than contract details, is there an easier front office job than GM or POBO in the NBA? Small rosters, cap, no real minor league system to deal with? Review NBA draft sites, use ESPN trade machine, draft consensus player at draft spot, call it a day. Can't be any worse than what "real" GM's do.
