Many people give him credit for JB and Dodo though, but how much can really be attributed to him when JB is thriving in NYK and Dorian looks like barely a rotation player with the Nets?

Mavs let go St. Jean themselves, so there had to have been a reason there. Who is the 3rd assistant that they lost? Are you talking about Darrell Armstrong? I don't think the Mavs let him go, even with his poor judgment driving while intoxicated. 

The 1 assistant that will never happen but wish it did would be to hire Bud. No shot Kidd approves because Bud took over for him in MIL and immediately made that team good, but one can dream right?

So far they will need to replace St. Jean, Patton (shooting coach), and Quinton Crawford (Vogel guy). Crawford was only here for a year but he is supposed to be good at player development. 

Jared Dudley will probably get a promotion. If Hornacek is the guy they end up bringing in, that would be so underwhelming

Because they took offers for 2 days and found nobody will give up a lot for him.

With the new agreement, T-Wolves might not be able to keep him and many teams can't offer more than the MLE.

MJ finalizing the sale of the Hornets. He was the only black majority owner in the NBA. Back to square one.

Ja gets a 25-game suspension. Thought it would be more than that.

Too light in my opinion. I don't think this is strong enough. I was honestly expecting 41 or more games.

Silver is a wuss. 

Last time a player had issues with guns they were suspended an entire season. 25 games is light. He should've gotten 50+

They're not trading Ja....yet.  If he keeps getting into trouble, he'll be out of the league.

25 is too light. He should have gotten more. I hope he learns from his mistakes, but i dont see it.

I agree, to light. He clearly learned nothing from the first 5 mess-ups.

This got me thinking, if you could pick one mav to come back after a growth spurt of 2-3 inches, who are you picking?
