Appreciate the kind words.

I think it’s a little early to write Kuester off as a never-will-be. His resume is pretty impressive. And he did a fantastic job as Cleveland’s “offensive coordinator” last season.

As for Stern and the financial state of the NBA, I’d like to see the league implement a more comprehensive revenue sharing policy.

On Dumars/Kuester: it’s hilarious that he tells this longwinded story about how much Kuester impressed him in a huddle. Admit it, Joe- you hired Kuester ’cause he didn’t cost 6 mil a year. In two years or less, Detroit will be looking for another coach. The sad part is that it will probably have more to do with the lousy defense of Gordon and Villanueva than Kuester’s ability to run a team.

On Stern: does anyone else find it ironic that the league continues to pour cash into the India and China markets while half the teams in the NBA are losing money? Typical corporate douchebag- outsourcing to meet the bottom line while the local product flounders.
