This is for guys who are jealous of me staying on the hottest topic in the news JVD. gony, ares ,pike, swish, prodson,karnivore. AND FOR THAT I LAUGH AT YOU!



June 3, 2003 -- The "BIGGEST" upset of the playoffs may be Jeff Van Gundy getting shut out of a coaching job. Despite numerous vacancies, Van Gundy has a good chance of working another year for TNT.
Unless the Wizards jump in the fray, it's the Rockets or bust for Van Gundy. And the biggest rumor is the Rockets are leaning toward Mike Dunleavy because of Rockets GM Carroll Dawson's longtime ties with him. Dawson has known Dunleavy since 1980 when Dawson was an assistant coach for the Rockets and Dunleavy played guard.

"It's down to those two and we haven't decided," Dawson claimed yesterday. "I've coached Dunleavy. I know Jeff much less. I just met him really last week and getting to know him was very interesting. He's very personable and open."

Van Gundy had done more extensive interviewing with the Cavaliers, who hired Paul Silas yesterday.

Both sides obviously realized Van Gundy could be a bad fit with rookie LeBron James coming aboard. According to league sources, Van Gundy's perceived win-now-at-all-costs approach and lack of patience with younger players could have led to a LeBron uprising.






VANGUMBY HAS BEEN EXPOSED FINALLY, NOBODY WANTS THIS IDIOT AND HIM NOT HAVING A JOB TELLS IT ALL. Now I have to hear his followers : well he doesn't stand for poor leadership on atlanta cleveland etc.. Listen a coach coaches he is on the verge of being outdated like his side kick FRATELLO. i AM LAUGHING ALL DAY LONG THE GUY IS A CHUMP. NUFF SAID!

Another VG thread by Playa... what a surprise!!

Van who?? Didn't he coach the Knicks some years ago?

yEA VAN STUPID HAS YOU GUYS REALLY STARTING TO WONDER IF HE HAS A DISEASE OR SOMETHING called 'NO CREACTIVITY SYNDROME"

... in Playa's mind... VG not getting jobs is a personal victory for him and everything he's said about VG... don't ask me, man... pretty crazy stuff.

Gony, for me he personaly stop the knicks from becoming like the mavericks by weasling his way(sucking up to ewing to whatever he wanted) as head coach instead of backing nellie to change who the offense was going thru and thus we followed the blueprint(riley)left that didn't evolve the new modern style of the nba that nellie saw coming . Instead he just wanted to win games only to keep his job and fought the visionary we had here "grunfeld". Grunfeld had a clue and Gundy fought him and luckily thru injuries camby was allowed to play. Gundy and Ewing destroyed the hope of the knick staying competitive for title runs in the 2000's. But for some, you're to blinded not to see ny would have been better with nellie and grunfeld instead of winding up with Layden and gundy. And now you blame chaney who gundy endorsed and drop a two ton weight on chaney's head. YOU DO THE MATH. I am all about the knicks not this bash them after the fact mentality when the damage was done way back then.

Geek... I'll use an old Bob Dylan line... "don't criticize what you can't understand".

Congrats, Playa... after all these years, you actually found someone that paid you a compliment... looks like you got yourself a clone, dawg.

myron you too stupid to realize that want a comliment. what a dummy.

typical myron, can dish it but cant take it.
