Celtics reportedly interested in Nets assistant Mike D’Antoni for coaching job. Sounds good to me.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

So we're supposed to believe that Brad just doesn't give a crap about defense anymore?

I would not want D'Antoni.   Just hated that Houston offense.  Hated it.

Would just need to surround him with defensive minded assistant coaches.

D'Antoni would speed things up but he's kinda long in the tooth to be a head coach.

Is 70 the new 40?

That offense was more Morey than not. Money’s offense is ball movement oriented, but Morey’s front office analytics pushed for iso ball with Harden.

I've always liked him.

It think he'd have two rings without bad luck..

I think D'Antoni is an excellent coach, but also a bad fit for the Celtics.
Especially with this roster. Pass.

There’s absolutely no doubt that our offense would be fun to watch, and that Tatum and Brown would be completely unlocked, possibly even leading to MVPs.

There’s also no doubt that role players would be developed. These are things that have happened at every stop for him.
