“Hell, Bill has a couple of WNBA rings… At least he can work somewhere without killing the whole operation.”

Um, try buying Detroit tix next year.

Yeah… But if he doesn’t, Florida International basketball may be in for the CBA euthanasia treatment.

I’ve got my fingers crossed for them, and I certainly don’t fault them for rolling the dice with Isiah. The sky’s the limit if he can get it together for them.

But the dude has a storm cloud of failure and destruction that follows him everywhere since his playing career ended. If I were an FIU fan, I’d be very worried about his track record and personal instability.

Maybe if he can bring Laimbeer in from the Timberwolves for thug lessons, they can make it work together. Hell, Bill has a couple of WNBA rings… At least he can work somewhere without killing the whole operation.

the mike brown phenomenon??? is that the interwebs famous dahbeed ‘80/20 tipping point ratio of talent/coaching’???

that’s what i’ve been trying to ’splain to folks in topper land. i’m not so sure it’s not 85/15 or even 90/10. many folks like to argue they believe it is 70/30 but i think that is just to take issue with me. (yes, i believe everything revolves around me even when it doesn’t)

if ‘zeke gets the talent that says they’re coming he can eat sleep aids like m&m’s, blame it on his sister’s cousin and roll a ball out at practice and kick back and enjoy the buzz…they will win in the belt.
