When bud leaves and goes to coach elsewhere and his win percentage drops closer to what he was with atlanta I’d love to hear the argument. Doc and Bud had .653 and .693 win percentage. But yet we should go with bud cause bud’s win percentage which is .013 higher than doc for his career. Lol. Also Cassell is mentioned because of his work with maxey as a prospect. Who the heck do you think has been working with maxey to get him to the level he’s gotten too? Cassell. They’d never hire him cause he lacks experience that they want. he is likely going to get a team that needs player development. I much rather see Cassell than a guy like d’antoni. Bud likely sees a significant drop in win percentage at his next stop not having giannis interesting how the bucks would fire bud and yet interview an assistant with minimal HC experience 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoa whoa whoa. How can we say Spoelstra is the best coach in the league when Budenholzer has a better win percentage… I’m fine giving a highly qualified assistant the job but the sixers will never do it. Where they are as a franchise right now it’s gonna be a guy with experience which leads me to believe it’s either Williams, nurse, MDA or Bud. My money is on MDA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Sixers had 3rd best regular season record in 3 years under Doc Rivers and won a title as a HC. Last 3 years for doc 154-82 with an injury prone embiid, a washed harden, maxey and Ben Simmons in the first year. Budenholzer 155-81 with the best player on the planet in Giannis. Only difference here is Budenholzer was fortunate KD wears the wrong shoe size (purposefully wears his shoes 1 size larger) along with harden and kyrie being hurt in that series so it was KD vs. the bucks. KD damn near won it by himself cause Budenholzer had no clue how to double KD or put Giannis exclusively on KD. Similarly to this year where Budenholzer didn’t comprehend to put Giannis (when he returned) whose size, strength and length would give butler trouble. Instead he stayed course with holiday who got torched by butler all while Herro was out and they got beat by butler, bam, washed Lowry and JAGs also point out Vegas has nick nurse as the favorite for the suns, sixers and bucks job. Tells you everything about how the nurse is viewed. He has ability to be a tactician and if they given star power like doc and Bud has been given likely can do more with it in the postseason 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted him 3 years ago but decided to settle on doc. MDA makes sense cause harden and morey are close with him and would write off on it. I believe 3 years ago there were reports embiid was ok with MDA. He has also been connected with the sixers organization in the past and ownership seems to like him. i tend to think nurse goes to the bucks or suns as better chance to succeed there. Which means it’s MDA, Williams, Budenholzer and Cassell. I tend to think the order it goes is 1. MDA, 2. Williams, 3. Bud and 4. Cassell. Not necessarily the order I’d have it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglesfan0075 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 3 hours ago, e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! said: First, I hate trading maxey, but I looked at it for a while now that after Joel Embiid is gone, the likelihood you win a title with maxey as you’re number one guy and just building around him is very slim. Likely the iggy and holiday sixers stuck in a purgatory. So if you’re going to maximize a championship window then he is likely the guy you have to trade to get a star player to put alongside Joel Embiid and harden if you keep him to try to win a title. It’s unfortunate but the reality. The reality is when you trade Joel Embiid and he’s gone would you rather just be stuck in the middle of the pack with Tyrese Maxey (with some picks that might or might not bring you another star) or would you rather just be completely bad to the point where you’re picking high enough to potentially get better stars? Second, I love Kawhi Leonard. However, Kawhi Leonard can’t stay healthy. We don’t need more guys on this team that are unreliable when the playoffs start to stay healthy. If this was Kawhi Leonard Toronto Raptors and I knew that’s what I was getting him throughout the playoffs and he wasn’t gonna get hurt then I would do it. I think you’re gonna wind up getting a guy who consistently gets injured and then now you’re back to where you are because you don’t have reliable players in the playoffs. Not an easy decision to make, I hear you. Early signs are pointing towards Harden coming back with Doc Rivers being let go and the frontrunner for the open HC position being Mike D'Antoni (although it's not logically the best move, it is predictable given the familiarity with Daryl Morey and James Harden). That being said, I think we go in the build around Embiid and Harden direction instead of rebuilding around Maxey. I also understand the concern with Kawhi's injury history. What if the team traded for Damian Lillard instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’d be able to score and would have to try to outscore you. If you had more athletic wings to go along with lillard and Harden then I think it would work. But currently you have PJ Tucker and who the hell knows who the other starter is because Tobias Harris is getting traded. I also don’t think maxey, Harris and 2029 first is gonna get that deal done. also there’s Stephen a. Smith saying embiid isn’t happy they fired doc. Frankly he should look in the mirror cause he’s a significant reason why doc got fired. So if he’s unhappy about it then maybe be unhappy with himself.

HazletonEagle Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 While Simmons couldnt develop under Doc, I do believe Embiid reached a new level. As soon as Doc got there he took a step, but was still too perimeter oriented. Then this season, yet another step. Im not shocked Embiid doesnt like it. He will have to get over it. Or hopefully request a trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
