I like the note that Charles Lee is the backup. Gores completely shut down Ollie

Ollie is a bum

Highest paid coach in the NBA for the worst team in the NBA

Someone made a good point to me that coaching salary is basically marginal, though. 12 or 8 million is a drop in the bucket compared to the team salary. If you can pay $4 million for an extra two wins, why not?

No cap for coaches but crazy committing resources like tot hat to an nba coach, my hot take is nba coaches really don’t matter that much. There’s a reason dudes can role in with no coaching experience and succeed.

Considering Spoelstra has dog walked his coaching Counter parts I can’t say I agree

And the coach’s salary doesn’t impact the cap. It’s just down to the owner agreeing to the money. When you’re a billionaire trying to boost your ego by having your nba franchise not be the worst, why not spend a few extra million to get Monty instead of Ollie.

Exactly. That’s what I mean by just being marginal. It’s just money, might as well over spend on things that create advantages.

I mean it’s not our money

Monty is a pretty good coach, better than Ollie

I’d concentrate on that before the money

Also means the Pistons have to go free agent shopping. Might package that #5 lotto pick as trade bait. Ticket prices will be going up, too. When next season’s goal is Play-In level or Bust, how many💰 it takes is irrelevant.
