thats the first time in any sport i've ever heard of trading a coach... anyone else hear that before?
The west gets harder while the east is as weak as ever.
Nothing against Doc, but it aint like the Clipps just hired Phil Jackson. Sure He's got a championship ring, surrounded by a lot of missed playoffs and early play-off exits.
IMO the only reason this is even a big "story" is that it's a trade and not simply a coaching hire. With this move alone I don't see the Clippers being much improved in 2013/14. Matter of fact, IMO the Clippers will not really compete for a championship (Wait, did I just say Clippers and compete for a championship in the smae sentence? Wierd..) anyway, until Griffen learns to do more than dunk the ball. At some point his ego is going to have to take a back seat to the "Team" or "A" team....
So the east didn't get weaker with Doc leaving? Dude is a top 5-10 easily and is a motivator to players and he gets them to follow what he is saying. Great move by the Clips and the Celtics will be not so good this year.
