yeah, my point was that no one will believe any insight that isn’t what they wanna hear. I’ve been saying for weeks Stevens has been 100% out from the jump. He just doesn’t wanna leave the Celtics for IU. Period.  Of course it makes total sense, because leading the Celtics organization is a better job than coaching at IU, but no one buys that someone may know it for a fact because cognitive dissonance has a stranglehold on this board.  

It’s the way you go about it, and nothing is 100%, talking in absolutes doesn’t work with a coaching search.

Wait... you mean to tell me, people are more abrasive to things they don't want to hear!?!?!?! I'm 34... this is the first I've heard of this. 

But instead, you find it more logical to come here and try and preach? Got it. yep, they're the idiots, makes total sense.

Has a single person other than you suggested Michael Lewis?

I mentioned him as a top assistant if Cronin gets hired since they worked together at UCLA. But NO LOL not a single realistic name based on the criteria laid out by the AD on his list outside of Cronin. Hell outside of Cronin on that list might as well get DMV back in here for some Mark Turgeon discourse.

I want McCollum.

Keep fighting the good fight. You’re really close to changing everyone’s minds, I can feel it.

How many fonts did you use in this post? I couldn't pay attention to what you were saying. 

Did you see the three posts today where I said I didn't think Brad would end up being the coach? Of course, you didn't because you are a fraud. It's about time you tell us your leaving and not coming back again

I don’t know what’s going on with the fonts. Didn’t mean to do that.

Attention Attention The Mid-Day blitz is now over. I repeat the mid-day blitz is now over. Please go back to doing whatever you were
Also still have room on the Brad train if anyone wants on. 

Hell yes I want on!! Hopefully we get some positive news soon!

He's cutting and pasting from somewhere else...

what level of confidence would you say you have that BS is the coach next year based on the info you have currently? Not locking you in, just curious.

Idk for sure

But it is 100% in this case.

So you can dismiss other people that have shared supposed inside information from Steven's front that say he isn't coming but can't share a level of confidence that he is in fact coming?

The only thing I know us who we aren't hiring because well they aren't pure.

 

Beard

Pitino

May ship sailed last year

 

Stevens 2% chance

Bronwell 50% chance

Cronin 25% chance

Brownell is 0% chance.  There’s no way IU hires him.

You made me do this. 

These popped up on my memories recently. [emoji23]

People will be people, and that means they'll resist someone who comes directly at them with a bad delivery. Most of your comments are dripping with condescension. You can't disparage someone's mindset and then expect them to back down to your absolutes. You won't strong-arm anyone into believing what you think they should believe, especially not from a keyboard. Help us understand why you don't understand.

Exactly. Remember what I said anyone who says it is 100% is getting bad info. If you asked Brad today he would tell you it's not 100%

But he loves working with the Celtics so much that his contract ends in 3 months.

Pretty sure you mean confirmation bias. You are correct about his Celtics job being better than the IU coaching job. However, that’s not really weighing into his calculus. Why am I so certain? Because that point is obvious to anyone that can stack rank the best jobs in hoops. BS has listened and until we get a firm no (which we haven’t yet) he’s still an option…the option.
