Brian Shaw rumored to be frontrunner to succeed Doc Rivers as head coach of the Celtics
 

 Brian Shaw has been bouncing around like a pinball the past few weeks. As soon as Shaw misses out on one coaching gig, as another team hires a coach, he immediately becomes a front runner for another team. Who knows what type of head coach Shaw would make. He's been supposedly head coach ready for a few years now, but no one has bit on him. Hopefully whoever he coaches he doesn't pull a career suicide move and try and install the triangle as former Phil Jackson assistants (Jim Cleamons, Kurt Rambis, Bill Cartwright) have tried with brutal results. Can you imagine Rajon Rondo in a triangle offense?
 
Ironically Shaw was drafted by the Celtics after growing up a Laker fan and may finally get a shot as as a head coach in Boston after hoping for many years to get that position in his hometown L.A, first for the Lakers and this Summer with the Clippers.
 
If Doc leaves, how would you feel about the former Celtic point guard taking the head coaching duties in Boston?

  Can't stand Brian Shaw, but I'd be fine with the Celts interviewing the same coaches the Clips look at.

Pay  LIONEL HOLLINS   head coach and Frank as assistant or promote Lue

what he needs to rebuild the team


He is most likely to do a good job   

he is not a small ball coach

The C's aren't going to pay a top flight coach like Sloan or Karl when there is no chance of contending for at least a few years .

They will go cheap and try to develop talent until they are a legit contender again.

Not quite sure why so many are so into Lawrence Frank? The guy did an awful job with Detroit and also didn't really do that great with the Celtics as an assistant either.

I would love to have Brian Shaw.

Learned under Phil Jackson, former Celtic, assistant to Frank Vogel on a very good Pacers team and knows the game.

Lawrence Frank really doesn't have any kind of impressive track record as a coach that I am aware of. No thanks.

I would be very happy with Brian Shaw. I think he is one of the best head coaching prospects in the league. I am very optimistic about him. 

I love the Triangle offense. It is beautiful. It's a pity we have Rondo. Can't run it with him here. It would be a waste of his talents. I am confident Brian Shaw with all his experience in different systems will comfortable running a different type of offense to better suit Rondo. So I am not concerned about that.

Brian Shaw seems to allegedly be the front runner for every job out there.  Nobody seems to want to hire him, though.
