Laimbeer resigns as Shock head coach.

Re: Laimbeer resigns as Shock head coach.

I heard on the radio today…

hopefully he can land as an assistant for us (and eventually coach :D )

I think Laimbeer will be a good coach… if some organization can get over their life long grudge against him… from when he played.

from Chuck Daly last year (reference Sacramento Bee)

Quote:

On why former Pistons center and current Detroit Shock coach Bill Laimbeer can't land an NBA head coaching job: "I think it must be because Billy made a lot of enemies when he was a player. But I tell you what. He is as smart as a whip. Someone is going to get darn lucky in this league. They just have to take a chance. I talked to the Maloofs about him when they were looking for a coach (last year), and they would have talked to him. But Geoff (Petrie) wasn't interested."

he'll be a good "nba" coach maybe the cavs should take a look at him he played there before he went to detroit.
