I'm moved in to my new place, but the Internet's still spotty until this afternoon. For now, read this post from Kyle about Shaun Livingston's game on Saturday. Maybe it's time to make a lineup change, I don't know. Also see Kyle's photo gallery of Livingston.
Kyle from Truth About It gives Flip Saunders a C- and wonders why he's been given a pass for a lot of the Wizards' struggles. I don't think he's been given a pass here at least, but it's a good read. Scroll down the page to find it.
Yay! About time I say. Flip says he's probably going to play Randy Foye to keep Nick Young's role consistent, though he could also go with Young. Philadelphia does start two small guards, so Foye makes a lot of sense there.
Don Zierden, coach of the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx has resigned to take a job as an assistant with Flip Saunders. The two worked together before when Saunders coached the Timberwolves.
The Washington Wizards Blog is reporting that Sam Cassell and Randy Wittman are officially official as assistants on Flip Saunders' staff. Get ready for more Gollum jokes people. [Ed. Note - the original fan shot by igetbucketsson was changed and slapped on the front page - Truth]
Looks like assistants Phil Hubbard and Randy Ayers will be out too....according to Wizards Insider. No big surprise here as most any coach would want their own staff ... except ... Wes Unseld, Jr. will be staying on board. The Unselds are part of Abe Pollin's family ... and it just wouldn't be a franchise without a dose of nepotism. Speaking of ... Flip might hire his son.
Well, that was quick. Thanks to Mike Jones for the heads-up (got an e-mail from him after he posted that). UPDATE: More coverage from Mike Jones and from Michael Lee, who says that Flip will be bringing on Sam Cassell as an assistant.
Great article by Mannix on EJ's defenisve deficiencies. Two things jump out at me -- Ernie Grunfeld almost fired EJ at the beginning of 06/07, when we started 4-9, and that EJ spends most of his practices working on offense. A must read.
