Mmmm, a functional version of Kurt Rambis perhaps?
Between this and the presser, there seems to be a lot of common themes: High post offense, fast pace, “flow” into an offense quickly, get guys out of their comfort zone to help them grow.
I expect that Rick Adelman will differ in that
his interpretation of “get guys out of their comfort zone to help them grow” will not be “actively sabotage the careers of lottery picks.”

Like I said, let's hope he's the functional version of Rambis
meaning he is generally aiming for a similar means to an end (fast paced offense, players that develop), but just executes a lot better.

The difference is the emphasis he puts on fitting the system to the players
and not the other way around.

You forgot "Stops". He said "Stops".

this was awesome
of course, according to guys I play pick up ball with, they could dominate her on the court because they played Division Two NCAA basketball.

Also I think Kahn did a nice job of being there, answering what he needed to answer and do it nicely. He’s really doing a nice job in my mind.
Or a job ON your mind, eh?
