    If that’s the choice it’s dumb, he’s never been a head coach before, this team needs a defensive minded coach that will get dame and cj to play defense.

    They are too small to ever be great defenders. It’s an excellent choice. That Pistons team Billups won a title with was probably the most underrated team in the last 21 years.

    no head coach has had head coaching experience before he became a head coach. one thing that seems to help and that’s being a former nba player I think the players respect that more and are more willing to buy in

    Billups a great pick. He played on some Detroit teams that arguably had one of the greatest defenses ever and shut down the Lakers 4-1 in the 2004 FINALS. Billups knows how to get a team playing hard every posession. This team needs to be motivated and challenged more than anything. They take entire quarters off thinking they will shoot their way back. Players respond better to former players today.

    Pistons 2003-2004

    Record: 54-28 (.659 winning percentage) second place in Central Division

    Points allowed: 84.3 per game

    Blocks: 7.0 per game

    Steals: 8.0 per game

    Defensive rebounds: 30.4 per game

    Finish: Won NBA Finals (4-1) against Los Angeles Lakers

    I would think he'd struggle with that.. I've heard him talk.. Not a bright guy -most former players aren't. But hey good for player power & black power right? Some great coaches in Europe. Next time a euro league coach gets a chance in the NBA will be the first.

    Agree. He's calm and collected, went to b2b finals. Owned the East for a while. Went to the west and took Melo and Denver to the west finals in his first year. Would have won too if not for Kobe standing in his way.

    Bro how many times are you going to keep talking nonsense? James is not the same guy as Lillard. I said Portland.

    How many times did I tell you that portland wasn't going to beat Denver?

    Let's see what happens. What does Lillard have, about 6 years left. He's the best player in the western conference today. James is regressing a little. Kawhi is the ultimate team guy but he's not as skilled as Dollar. Give Lillard those same types of teams and he will breeze his way to a ring. Never forget who ended Paul George and Westbrook in the playoffs with Myers Leonard as Lillard's second best player.

    If you can win with Curry, you can definitely win with Lillard.
