What do all these teams see in Fred Hoiberg?  
Greg from LI : 1/6/2019 8:11 pm : link
Decent but nothing special college coach, makes on sweet 16 in 5 years at Iowa State. The Bulls are so wowed by that track record that they hire him. He proceeds to go 115-155 with the Bulls, gets fired midseason.....and gets hired by Minnesota during that same season?? WTF?

not hired yet, but according to woj he is the favorite and he has his choice of gm or coach
Thibs deserves it  
Earl the goat : 1/6/2019 8:21 pm : link
He ruined this team
Bad signings with Gibson and Deng
Bad trade for Butler

Just like Stan Van Gundy deserved it
Hard to be GM and coach
If Wiggins became available  
Earl the goat : 1/6/2019 8:27 pm : link
I’d trade Frank and THJR and throw in a couple of seconds to get him
Wiggins. Knox. KP and lottery pick plus FA(KD) ? would make a real nice starting five

Wiggins needs a new address and a different coach
Very very talented
Wiggins  
dep026 : 1/6/2019 8:36 pm : link
needs a jumshot and a heart. More so the latter.
I don't think he's a great coach for how the league now plays.

Heart definitely. But Thibs stole all his confidence
Definitely needs new coach and new address The fans don’t like him

But he definitely doesn’t suck balls
Yes he does  
dep026 : 1/6/2019 8:57 pm : link
he is currently the worst contract in the NBA.


40% from the floor
Doesnt defend
doesnt rebound
doesnt pass


Hes athletic. Thats about it.

Please don’t blame Thibs. Wiggins has always been like this. That contact is awful.

Thibs will get another job and do well. Just can’t have full control.
At least they still have Lauri Markkanen.  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 1/6/2019 9:04 pm : link
Oops.
Wiggins puts up THJ stats with somewhat better defense  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 1/6/2019 9:06 pm : link
for 60% more money.

Not blaming Thibs for Wiggins. Blaming him for the awful moves he’s made

I don’t think Thibs gets another job. I don’t think players respond to him positively anymore

Regarding Wiggins. He’s only 23. Needs a different type of coach and a new address But I agree Wiggins doesn’t have heart and should take majority of blame. Contract is bad But kid has a ton of talent if the right coach can get it out of him
Dep's guy!
