Saintsfan Posted January 26, 2004 Share Posted January 26, 2004 The guy was having problems with his star players, but hey the guy has a pretty great record really. Geez its tough being an NBA coach these days- average job lifetime, about 3 months, if you are good enough!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJTank Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Allot of people said Eddie Jordan was doing all the work, and Jason Kidd ahs complained openly about Scott's work on planning for a game and in game stradegy, both areas where Jordan did most of teh work last year. Firing Scott now is a mistake for this nobody, but perhaps they will end up with Doc Rivers in the ends which will be good in the long run.

STL FANATIC Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 I don't really understand it looking at the record, but that's without any other knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Well it looks like the firiing was Jason Kidd's doing, it just shows you that in the NBA the players run the show and not the coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it is happening more and more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
