This guy would be another good choice and rates right up there with Tyrone Corbin for me. In 19 years as an assistant coach, Tom's defenses have ranked in the top 10 in the NBA 15 times.

The thing about Thibodeau that scares me is that all of this talk about him only happened when he got in Boston. Reminds me way too much of when Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel were thought of being the "next big thing" as far as head coach material in the form of an assistant. Also recall that Belichek doesn't allow his assistants to talk to the media much like Doc. The Boston media (aka ESPN and their other local papers) overrate their products. So you don't know exactly how much truth there is behind Thibodeau being a good coach.
