Jerry Recco

They didn't have someone to replace him.

And it was the only real thing that they were changing in this offseason.

And they went out and they asked every coach that was successful in the NBA who was under contract if they could have permission to talk to him, which was just one of the dumbest things in the world.

And they ended up with Mike Brown.

So I'm not... Like, if they really believe that Tibbs couldn't get them over the hump, fine.

But to just kind of go out there blind and then end up with Mike Brown and then think that that is going to be the hire that gets you to the finals, that whole situation might be the reason why they don't get there.

Now, I'm not saying they would have gotten there with Tibbs, but they fired him and then really didn't have any idea what they were doing when it comes to replacing him.

All right, so let me ask you this question.

Would this team be any better?

And I think...

given if you could replace Karl-Anthony Towns with Giannis without losing any of the other starting four.

Well, I don't think that's possible.

I know.

That's why I say that.

It's not possible.

So they can straighten all this out and we can stop all this discussion if they go to the conference finals and they win and then they make it to the NBA finals.

This discussion then stops.

We don't have this discussion about Mike Brown.

We don't have this discussion about firing Tom Thibodeau.

And we don't have this discussion about possibly adding Giannis to the mix.
