I can’t see him in that spot. He’s not built like a coach. He has no filter.
Yeah not sure that works either but who knows, stranger things have happened

There would have to come some real whole sale changes of what is valued in a coach for him to be a hire.

It’s more like there are changes in how people behave and their perception as they get older. Like Barkley.

Having as high a basketball IQ as Draymond is the first thing a coach needs

Nah. He’s a media guy. He’s a Colin Cowherd Skip Bayless Screamin A Smith hot take guy. He’s Generation Next on the garbage that has become sports media. He’s perfect for that shit. You have to be a serious person to be a coach. He’s not that guy.

LOL I'd use the 'tell me you don't watch basketball...' line here but we both know you do and we both know I'm correct about his basketball IQ

JJ Redick was a media guy before getting the HC job for the Lakers.

And as I said, people and perceptions change. How Draymond is perceived and how he behaves today will change over time. Not saying he for sure will end up a coach but it's very much a possibility if he wants to go that route.

Haha! Everybody in the pool of coaches has a basketball IQ. What does this mean?

JJ Redick is a serious person with a filter and a great communicator and leader.

Not likely at all. Tigers don’t change their stripes.

It means what is stated. He certainly has a higher IQ than Screaming A and Skip and the rest. Not every basketball player has the IQ to be a coach. We won't be seeing JaVale McGee or KAT in coaching in the future.
JJ Redick is a serious person with a filter and a great communicator and leader.
Draymond can be and has been a 'serious person' plenty and of course is a great leader on the floor. I'm not saying he will coach the year after retiring. Jason Kidd and Larry Bird come to mind as similar floor leaders turned coaches.
Not likely at all. Tigers don’t change their stripes.
Unless their name is Charles Barkley (sports public enemy #1) or Phil Jackson (dirty, chippy goon player) or....

Again, not saying this is a lock. I guess we'll see.

Skip Bayless is his lane

I agree he is a natural as a media guy.

Coaching thing?

Could be great or a spectacular failure. I lean more toward the failure side.

But sometimes players buy into quirky personalities like his. Draymond is real and he is definitely going to have the attention of the locker room at first.

Just a matter of whether or not he can make the right decisions to keep it.

He will be fine as a media guy if he wasn't a hater. With the way he act on TNT, he is more of a skip bayless guy and shouldn't be on any pre/post game show. Put him on a debate show where being biased or a hater is ok

Yep. That’s his flow. He gives Ass Clown. The good news is that Ass Clown presents the best way to monetize sports media.

I thought you were talking about ANT falling apart and not showing up for the last 5-6 games only reaching 20 points once in that time.

Ant is elite.

KAT is Joel Embiid with better health and a worse relationship to jimmy butler

Sorry Wolves fans but I am now rooting for a sweep

Need Luka closer to 100% for the finals so it is critical that they end this series ASAP to try and get Luka a week off

Also, Ant said he is tired so best for him to rest up for the Olympics....camp starts in about a month

KAT wears Joel Embiid footy pajamas. Let’s measure their talent in baseball payroll.
KAT = Twins payroll
Embiid = Phillies payroll
If KAT was 300% smarter and 40% less soft you would look crazy right now.
