I would hope that Rivers is on the radar for OKC but D'Antoni can fuck right off.
As for the Clippers, I think Sam Cassell would be a great choice. I understand there are other more experienced coaches but he's been an assistant for what seems like an age. Time to step up.

Doc to the Rockets to join his son?

@Bovidae I don't know the dynamic enough. Does Austin what to be back under the shadow of his dad?

I don't know either, just that there is a vacancy at the Rockets. It looks like Austin is a free agent too.

I love the talk of an Embiid for Harden straight up trade
Darryl Morey would be just the GM to do something huge like that. Can't see it unless he plans to ditch all his analytics and play with a real centre

It would be a huge admission of defeat from Morey though, he went balls deep on the small ball Harden experiment.
But I like it for both teams. An angry Embiid with an angry Westbrook would be fun to see. And Philly could be great with another shooter to help Simmons.
But mostly I just think it hasn't worked in either Houston or Philly so far, so why the heck not?

Isn't Morey on shaky ground himself due to the China comments at the beginning of the season?

I think he’ll survive.
Harden and Simmons would be good I reckon as long as they bring in a couple of other shooters. With Brett Brown gone I reckon Simmons will push to go back to point forward rather than what they experimented with this year.

He only has to worry about his standing with the new owner

Yeah, I think the Morey/China thing has passed. Now he just has to deal with another playoff exit...
Playoff predictions and hopes?
I'm hoping for Lakers in 6, predicting Lakers in 7
@voodoo I’m going (more hoping and
) Heat in 7 -

not going to get it done without Dragic dammit
The Dragon is a massive loss. Especially given Spoelstra really only plays 7 guys.

LA just brutalised Miami. After a slow start, the Lakers did what I expected them to do. Sure they got decent production from 3, but their defence and their size and strength wore Miami down. For two quarters LA took whatever they wanted offensively inside, totally dominated Miami's half court D. Bam looked beat up, Jimmy and Dragic too. Hero, Robinson, and the others found it harder to get shots off against that long LA D. I know its only G1 but they can smell blood in the water, guys like Howard AD and LBJ want this really bad, and are playing like it. MIA have to find something fast or this will be over quick

Apparently you can have steroid jabs and play through his injury. Fingers crossed.

I didn't even bother watching when I read both Adebayo and Dragic were ruled out.
Actually more competitive than Game 1

LA shot terribly from 3 in the 4th quarter. So many shots missed, MIA can't keep LA out of the paint or off the offensive boards. Could have easy been another blowout.
MIA will hope Bam comes back, he will have to face a resurgent Dwight Howard who will make him pay physically
