Really glad Milwaukee won. I think I will root for them regardless for the rest of the playoffs. But today I am a Sixers fan.
I was worried BKN was going to win it this year. With all their injuries and lack of play together, if they would have won it all this year that would not have been a good sign for the league and the haters of super teams. Regardless, what I saw this year they may have a 4 year run where they have a really good chance for 2 plus championships. I thought Nash was really solid this year, as was their ability to have solid production from low $ role players.
It appears like Milwaukee will not make a coaching change, but we will see how the next series goes. It would have been very tricky for Rick to take that job. Being the president of the coaching association, it would not have been a good look if he took that job after the rumors recently. Even if the rumors were not true. Where does Rick go if not Milwaukee? It appears he is not being considered for Boston. Portland? That would be intriguing but do they hire a coach similar to the one they fired and one who may ruffle some feathers in a delicate situation? New Orleans? That would also be attractive but does the Pelicans ownership want to pay big money for a coach? Outside of those two, does Rick really want to coach in a place like Indiana who are not going anywhere? Maybe sitting out for a year may be the best option, but it seems like he wants to coach now.
