First head coaching gig, yikes. But at least it's not a recycled coach. Not sure what his specialities are.

If I had to guess, being inexpensive.

Bingo. Wouldn't be surprised by some ridiculously low contract.

I think this signals a rebuild.

Harden to Philly?

I'm actually really happy with this hiring. After the Morey news, this was a pretty solid silver lining. Morey has been a fan of Silas for a while, and he's a damn good offensive basketball mind who helped helm one of the greatest offensive teams in league history last season led by a superstar whose game is a mirror of Harden's. Silas and Atkinson were the two guys I really wanted, and while I'm a huge JVG fan for a number of reasons, I never thought he was the best fit.

I'm hearing they're in talks with McMillan and Hornacek as possible assistants; I'm skeptically optimistic, but glad to see they're going after quality talent with the coaching staff. The roster still needs a lot of work, though...

Google says that's Stephen Stills LOL close!

Could you imagine a folk singer randomly getting an NBA head coaching gig? [emoji23]

Is it Paul’s kid?

Good research. Wasn’t sure if anyone would get it

He’d have to hire Bill Walton as an assistant

I've heard of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. I just didn't put 2 and 2 together. I hope it really is him as the HC now. [emoji23]
