    Its been less than 24 hours since the end of the regular season and 2 coaches have bee fired. Jim Boylan and Larry Kry(random series of consonants)... Unfortunately The Biscuit is still on the payroll. If he makes it through the first week of the offseason then we're probably stuck with him.

    Exactly. They dont fire coaches several weeks after the regular season ends. It's quick. By the end of next week, Friday 4/25, if he's still with us, he's back. Bank on it. And no one will be making a big deal of it as the NFL Draft is next weekend, and that, the Playoffs and Baseball will be all people care about.

    Well that would be unfortunate. I just can't picture going to games next year if Vincent is coach. I just can't see it right now. How absurd.

    Hell, I guess your're right, ziggy. Maybe though it'll take a little longer because they want to make sure they have their next coach ready to sign on the dotted line while Vincent is packing his things, which presupposes they have one main candidate for the job, or at most, two. Plus, a quick firing would make it look like MJ didn't give the matter any critical decision, making his guy Vincent look even more pathetic. Let's face it, because of personal issues, this won't be an easy decision for him, so I think if it goes on for longer than a week, there's no need to be too worried. With Boylan, Krystowiak, and Thomas, the writing was pretty much on the wall months ago, and we've known with MJ and Vincent, it won't be so cut and dry.

    It does bother me that other East teams have already released their coaches, and we have not. But I just can't imagine Vincent being around next year. That would be a terrible move if for no other reason than public image. There's a poll on The Observer's website, I'm sure some of you have already seen, asking folks what they think the team needs most. "New Coach" is currently in 2nd place with 28% behind "New Management" at 35%. I'm willing to bet that if "new management" wasn't an option then "new coach" would have half the votes. Also, maybe management wouldn't get such a bad rap if they didn't hire ill-prepared head coaches.

    Sam Vincent must go now.

    perhaps having to buy him out has something to do with it also. maybe they are negotiating some sort of buyout/ demotion plan.

    addendum: it's too bad you can't reassign a coach to the D-league like you can players.

    Things are starting to even out on the poll. It's now 30% "new coach" and 32% "new management." Assuming that MJ and BJ read the Observer, it could be helpful in reminding them that they need to Fire Sam Vincent if the results were overwhelmingly in favor of getting a new coach. (Almost as much as a season ticket holder withholding funds until the coaching situation has been addressed.)

    Chef, if we could send Sam to the D-League, then who would have to step into that role that is already with the team? (Assuming we're at the max roster for coaches...) I'd say not Paul Mokeski. Is it too late to call up Del Curry?

    Beagle,

    Micheal Jordan need to put person issues aside, after all, this is a business.

    Sam Vincent's hints of coaching philosophy, inability to motivate, communication with the players, establishing authority, or look like he knew what he was doing on the bench is enough for termination.
