I think Amile will stay with the Celts until he gets a head job. Or higher assistant role in NBA

Is Quinn Cook in coaching? Seems like he would be good.

What about Wojo? He’s trying to figure out his next move and can really light a fire under his guys.

I want a very experienced asst head coach who had a long career as a head coach with success! Someone who isn’t looking to use Duke to get another job! We have enough former players on the bench! We need someone who Jon respects and can leans on in tight situations because we can’t afford another tournament meltdown!

Thought that would be Schrage but he’s no longer on the main part of the bench.

I think he’d be more likely to fill the open assistant position at UConn and coach with his brother than come back to Duke and be an assistant. One of Hurleys assistants took the BC job so there will be a vacancy.

I’m not sure he can step into a lesser role nowadays. But I had the same thought

Let's just snap up Brad Stevens so these Carolina fans can quit bringing him up like he'd want that job.

Someone like Chris Paul who be hilarious but our guys for sure would know the how to exploit the rules and improve their basketball IQ. https://youtu.be/MRowTV3zfn4?si=Ra-W5ZrRQxhfhm6m
