oakley wants to coach

[fatlever]

we all know how jordan likes to surround himself with his buddies. oakley is jordan's right hand man.

if oakley wanted to coach, i could see mj giving him a start as one of our assistants.

i would have loved for oakley to have been on the staff when okafor first came in the league. i think oakley could have really helped okafor in a few areas (assuming oakley can actually relate to players).

ugh, no more Jordan people

Oakley is the most feared enforcer I remember from childhood. I think he could only help. What does LaSalle Thompson do that Charlie couldn't?

I never understood why he hasn't been helping us before now. Guess in the past it's been a full time job guarding MJ's golf clubs?

Somehow I think that one of Jordan's buddies might match his (current) work ethic. LaSalle Thompson at least seems to show up for work everyday....

Bet you won't say that to Oakley's face

I think that'd be a low risk move. Wondering who he could help on opur roster. Lexy's a bit laid back attitude? Gana actually doing anything? Tyson? Nazr is too old for mentoring I guess.

okafor would have been perfect to be coached by oakley. none of our bigs really fit that oakley mold now. man, i really wanted to see okafor be that type of pf... a mean SOB who would stab you in the neck for a rebound and then take you out to 18 feet and hit jumpers on you all day long. i honestly thought mek coulda been that type of player eventually, but i was wrong.

i kinda wish we had dejaun blair here so oakley could mentor him. i think blair is gonna be perfect for what we need. we should have taken blair over henderson, bad knees and all.
