Baxter Holmes : " C's want a coach that's presidential"

[ssspence]

SVG presidential..... hahahahhahahahh

[CelticG1]

Yeah labeling any basketball coach as "presidential" is pretty comical

[CelticG1]

Remember when our "presidential" coach almost got in a fist fight with our 25 year old point guard because he used a swear word?

Heard it this morning on weei while I was working . If this is true , who comes to mind ?

Obviously Larry Bird is my first though
Phil Jackson(No way in hell)
Nate McMillan
Jerry Sloan(but I think he took a role with the Jazz already)
George Karl(has said he doesn't want to rebuild)

Who else is presidential ?

Avery Johnson?

Presidential?
Well, Obama, who does play a good game of bball I hear.
Other than that: Roy Williams? Tom Izzo? Mo Cheeks?

Did you not catch his 2-20 public performance?

[PhoSita]

What the heck does "presidential" mean in this context?

Let's get a coach who's a great developer of young players, a good motivator, a great x's and o's guy, etc.  If he can deal with the media and the scrutiny of Boston, so much the better.

If we go the Rondo/Green/Smith route, I think Lionel Hollings would be great.   We have enough assets to be a 50 win team and he made that happen in Memphis.  Style of play will be different, but I think he has the experience needed.

Nate McMillan has an air of sagacious authority about him.

I think Calipari would be a lot of fun. Although he's less presidential and more Mafia don.

[radiohead]

Doc could have been 'it". Too bad the lure of LA got the better of him. Can't blame him but just saying...

[Who]

Aren't those the words Donald Sterling used to describe Vinny Del Negro?

Only other time I can recall those words used to describe an NBA coach. Strange choice of words.
