    Scott Skiles step back for orlando

    Bad move. That's why Orlando is a shitty organization.

    This is his fourth club. His act wears thin quickly. Another thibs with less success.

    Teams need to stop hiring these retreads. I know magic did the whole black thing but it's a shit job so I guess skiles fits in.

    Spot on. Retread coaches rarely work. Teams should try to follow more in the Celtics footsteps and think outside the box a little.

    Why would a good team hire him or any coach if they are already good?

    The guy has coached playoff teams in 7 of his 10 full seasons. I think he can take Orlando from Point A to Point B. He has never proven he can take a team to the promised land. In other words, nothing new for the Orlando Magic.

    Just not a good long term hire. Team will probably improve over the next couple seasons, then they'll be looking for a coach again.

    If I had a guess...they might want a guy who's a old school fundamental's guy first...who's got a system second....then builds the chemistry around that....and if you can't fit into a team mentality he's going to kick you in the balls....he's a bulldog kind of guy and some love it and others will hate it. The Magic are throwing something at a wall and hope it sticks...not unlike what the Bucks did with Kidd

    Skiles played for the Magic for 5 years. This is his first stint as coach.

    Jacque Vaughn was really really bad. This is an upgrade, just not a great one.

    He's a good coach. I'm surprised he quit -doesn't seem the type to. Trash team though. No doubt some of the idiots on this thread think popovich or carlisle could have put this team into the playoffs.

    -----Ask yourself this: if you had an NBA team who on their roster would you want? Vucevic is probably their best player but he's no good defensively. Trash team.

    Orlando still better then all the trash teams below them.
    Time to hopefully bring in Vogel as a potential suitor that can fix up the defense and hopefully lure a star player.
    Make or break season for Orlando for sure.
    And they'll still do better then all the shitty rebuilding teams below them.
