As I've been predicting, It was just reported that Flip will be our head coach. What a pathetic organization!

Krawczynski: "How long Flip stays in the job remains to be seen. Could bring on assistants to groom. Hearing will reach out to David Blatt, Sam Mitchell."
What does this mean for Love? Kept hearing that we wouldn't make a Love trade until we had a head coach, but Flip could just be taking control in the matter of keeping Love past this year. Who the hell knows anymore.

Stein said Flip is expected to pursue Billups as an assistant, which I'd personally love.

A guy with zero coaching experience, will be ready to coach an NBA team in a year or two?

I like it. No idea why Flip would want to do this. If I ever win the lottery I could love to take a job with the Wolves and work on the back end. I doubt they would pay me my current wages to make the switch at this with experience in that industry.

If Jason Kidd can do it, I really don't see any reason why Billups couldn't. He was always a player/coach on the court. Difference is there won't be the high expectations that Kidd had.

Kidd was clearly over his head as a coach. Plus Kidd has a wayyy bigger credibility as a player compared to Billiups
