Interesting little factoid: the Celtics(19) and the Lakers(18) have combined for 37 NBA championships. The next most is Golden St with 5. Now, in the combined history of those 2 dominant franchises, anybody want to take a swing at who has coached the most games WITHOUT winning 1 of those 37 championships? That would be Brad Stevens with 636. Oh, and the HC before him, Doc Rivers, and the one following him, Joe Mazzulla(Udoka doesn’t count) both have rings. Am I saying that Stevens isn’t top shelf? Of course not. But he’s not K either, at least not yet, and if I have to listen to Stevens-as-Savior talk for the next 2 1/2 months I’m probably just gonna have to lightly troll it every now and then. Somebody’s gotta be that guy.

Shew. 

He took Matt Howard, Shelvin Mack, and Ronald Nored to the National Championship game as an 8/9 seed. Think Doc Rivers would do that? he needed KG, Ray Allen, Rondo, and Paul Pierce to win a title. 

I don't think I value any single season that Coach K had over Brad Stevens's 2nd championship game appearance.

It's easier said than done with the current contracts and the way the rules are.

Actually, the Luxury Tax penalties get easier to manage (lower penalties) starting next year.

we received a silent commit that he was fired after the Bahamas trip.  He elected to return on the team plane for whatever reason.

You worry too much. It's a message board dude and Woodson isnt going to lose me any sleep. I sleep like a baby every night. The question is how do you sleep.

 

With my eyes closed.  And you can remove the word 'dude' from your posting vocabulary.  I'm not a dude for you nor is anyone else on btb.  Don't push your luck.  It happened once, it can happen again.

I don't think IU will win tonight  no idea how the score will be ,also doubt they will win on Tuesday  either .I  think the only reason he 

(Woodson  )  won when we played PU  was because of TJD and JHS  and the others .Also did TJD have a lot of player only meetings which I think he probably helped guide the team .This current team seem so ill fit they don't seem to have a real leader and are all trying to do their own thing .

I am worried if they were to go on a winning streak that year 5 is forced upon us and if that is the case may have to look for a new basketball team to root for .My dream is find a CC coach in basketball .

Keeping hearing names but don't know all of them  .

I nominate The Hump to be the next coach.  If you can’t beat it, join it.

Don’t the bulls have 6?

OK, not sure if this is the right thread but curious. Any speculation on what our roster looks like next year? I know, I know too many variables and I suppose it really all depends on who the next coach is but it is more fun than watching this current team get humiliated by Purdue.

Mbacko-probably gone

Reneau-depends on coach?

Rice- really hope he stays?

Carlisle- would love to see him with a decent coach

Tucker- dad seems to like Woodson?

Cupps-Well liked on campus who knows?

Newton- maybe back to Georgia to be closer to home?

Sisley- signed with IU not Woodson

Zrno- mystery guy, depends on coach?

Braylon Mullins-Hire a decent coach and he decommits U Conn and comes to IU lol

[Uspshoosier 47,142]

Buzz Williams would kill it at IU

My dad and I on a walk were having this conversation about who would stay and who would leave.

No winning streak happening here, and the majority thinks NW is gone no matter what.

I think we will get beat by 20+.
 

Did you ever get rid of that jockstrap yet?

You and I are going to have very different reactions to his inevitable hiring. Lol…

 

I’d probably throw him in the Brownell category. We’d be fine, but no championships incoming. He’s also a strong personality and I wonder if he’d eventually wear thin with the Indiana HS coaches.
