Stephen A. Smith argues that Ime Udoka is a top five coach and would be an ideal choice for the Knicks if he were not under contract with the Houston Rockets.

“He's one of the greatest coaches in the game. Easily top five coach in basketball. That brother's special. A hell of a coach. Who would have coached Boston to the championship? But that ended up being Joy Missoula. That email you Oh my lord. I Everything I said about the Knicks yesterday that raked ”

Jay Williams believes Ime Udoka would be an excellent fit as the head coach for the New York Knicks.

“I do think there is a coach out there that is currently coaching the Houston Rockets that will be the most amazing fit in New York City and that's Emmy Udoka.”

Pat McAfee argues that JJ Redick is a qualified candidate for the Lakers head coaching job because he is a basketball junkie with 15 years of NBA experience.

“If an ex player with 15 years of experience who is a basketball Junkie who was able to Showcase his big brain in the mind game podcast with the star of the team who happens to be LeBron James and didn't seem to be nervous would he not be a guy who was seemingly a good candidate for the job”

Boston Connor believes hiring JJ Redick makes sense for the Lakers because he has deep experience in locker rooms and a good relationship with LeBron James.

“if you're just betting on some wouldn't you want to bet on a guy who's been in locker rooms he's played in different eras of the NBA obviously CU he played for so damn long and you know he does have a good relationship with LeBron”

A lack of communication between teammates can lead to misunderstandings.

“See, one thing about it, a lack of communication can lead to a real misunderstanding, fellas.”

It is standard protocol for a high-level player to reach out to a new teammate to welcome them to the team.

“What is standard protocol of a guy of that caliber going to a team and the best player from said team or one of the best players from said team. What is normal protocol?”
