Nice to know other teams like your assistant coaches.

I take this as a complement.

GO HAWKS SUMMER LEAGUE!

[ATLSmith]

Wait, what? If Atlanta is okay with it then...okay, I guess. Still seems odd given the Hawks just hired Snyder and he's coaching our summer league team.

That just shows that they have a great coaching staff. I think a team should always allow assistant coaches opportunities to move up to head coach. That's a sign of a good organization in my opinion.

Gonna need a draft pick back

[PSSSHHHRRR87]

Man, I was hoping to have this All-Star cast of coaches... May sound selfish, but I really hope neither get the job.

Does Quinn Snyder put any product in his hair? He's got that "just got outta the pool" look to him...anyone have info? Vidal sasoon?

[JTB]

That's very awkward! We just got Snyder and this whole coaching staff is basically new. Not understanding this one

[Admin]

I don't think we are allowed to deny them if it's for a promotion. I know it's that way in the NFL but not sure about the NBA. Either way it wouldn't be right for us to say no if it's for a promotion for those guys. I hope we don't lose either of them though.

GTFOH Philly...

We hired Snyder as an assistant .Philly wants to interview him for their Head Coach job.Ferry is good friends with Snyder and wouldn't deny him a chance at career advancement .

I second the give us back a draft pick for hiring our under contract assistant. The precedence was just reaffirmed with Boston screwing us out of Paul.

Well Philly is tanking so I think they want a coach with the least amount of pro experience. I have a feeling Philly gets Wiggins. Not sure why but I have a gut feeling.

I wouldn't block our assistants from a head coaching job even though I do want to keep them.

I've got that feeling too. I think it's because that team is absolutely terrible. They have one starter level player in Thaddeus Young. Hawes would look nice in a Hawks uni though as a stopgap C.

Snyder for a 2014 1st round pick unprotected.

[Peoriabird]

They can have Snyder...He coached the summer league team like LD coached last year's Hawk team

[sturt]

Someone I read this morning suggested that this is a growing trend... teams taking advantage of their head coaching search to interview assistants of their competition to pick their brains for insights they might find beneficial later.
