Blunt91 Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 It's time that we finish out the coaching staff. I believe we will hire Domnique and Harold Ellis as part of the staff. Nique is a former NBA player with knowledge of the game and Ellis is a young guy that seems like he can relate to the young players. That leaves one spot left, I don't know who we will get for that spot. I bet money that we will sign a coach soon probably as earlier as next week.

KB21 Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Jaywalker says that Terry Stotts stated that an announcement could be made this week on the coaching staff additions. Jay also said to not hold our breaths waiting for Dominique to get one of those spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blunt91 Posted September 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2003 That's messed up they should give Dominque a chance. He could at least get the postion Steve Henson had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaHawk10 Posted September 17, 2003 Report Share Posted September 17, 2003 I think I would rather see Dominique in a management position, rather than as an assistant coach. I know he wants to coach very badly, and i believe he would be a good one if given the chance. But I think it would send a message across the franchise and to the fans that the Greatest Atlanta Hawk is in a HIGH position. Assistant coach, to me, is not much greater than what he has been doing the past few years "special assistant". I hope the owners will ask Nique to accept maybe a VP of Basketball Operations gig or something in that ballpark. He deserves it... J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickaufan12 Posted September 17, 2003 Report Share Posted September 17, 2003 I agree about the high management position. But, if we don't let him coach, he may take his services elsewhere (especially if he is offered a college HC position, or even an assistant position within the NBA). Look at how fast English bolted.

Guest Posted September 17, 2003 Report Share Posted September 17, 2003 Although I think some hype him up too much... It's really stupid not to give him a good position on the team. It would be cool if Jay could ask someone about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
