who goes 1st? coach frank or coach dunleavy?

[cranrab]

both coaches began their current assignments in 2003-04.

over the past 3 seasons, both coaches have had declining productivity (measured in Ws).

coach dunleavy has had problems with injuries.

coach frank has had roster fluctuations due to trades.

which of the 2 coaches will get fired 1st?

 

[cranrab]

if it helps, here is coach dunleavy's clipper record as head coach:

28-54
37-45
47-35
40-42
23-59
19-63
5-9

if it helps, here are coach frank's records with the nets:

25-15
42-40
49-33
41-41
27-55
34-48
0-12

I guessing Frank...

you shouldn't even have to ask. Frank took over a CHAMPIONSHIP caliber team whereas Dunleavy took over the Clippers. No more excuse for this phleb. Just send him packing. Byron's available again, do it now while you can

ps: if Frank were black, there'd be at least one thread blasting him (other than my own that is)

Frank goes first, but does it really matter? Don't fire either. The season's already started. They both have a lot of injuries to deal with. Fired or not, you still have to pay them, so let both of them stay.

47-35
40-42
23-59
19-63
5-9

49-33
41-41
27-55
34-48
0-12

does it really matter? Don't fire either.

the above quoted win/loss records are for the past sequential consecutive seasons.

look at the steep declines from both head coaches.

you change coaches to try and change the culture. i'd have to vote for coach frank. quality veterans don't want to be in new jersey, and the young players aren't responding to him.

If the situations were reversed and Laurence Frank had taken over the Clippers and Dunleavy took over for Byron Scott, those records wouldn't be reversed. The Clippers would never have reached 500 at all. But the Nets record might still be close to 500 no matter what personnel was or wasn't there.

ALL coaches deal with personnel changes. NBA or NCAA. Besides, the Nets have PLENTY of talent to with RIGHT NOW. With or WITHOUT Harris

the Nets record might still be close to 500 no matter what personnel was or wasn't there.

i'd like to give coach dunleavy the benefit of the doubt on that hypothetical.

since 2007-08 (inclusive), the clippers haven't had a single player start more than 67 games.

that's a tough road to hoe.

Nets lose today and they tie a record. Yet......

Imagine if Isiah's Knicks were 0-16??

 

[Diamels]

Looks like the question has been answered...

Looks like the question has been answered...

Listening to the FAN in NYC and JUST heard the news!!
Usually I feel bad even when it's a coach I can't stand.

But in this case.......







GOODBYE MUTHA FUKKKKKKAAAAAA!!!!!!!
