Fuck it. Sure. Do it.
With how wide we’ve cast our coaching search, I would have been more surprised if we didn’t interview Nash tbh
This will be our 9/11
Please no

Masai so washed
As a Nets fan, he was the worst coach I’ve ever witnessed on an nba sideline. Had no offense, no scheme, no adjustments, just stood there
I think one of us is about to get interviewed at this rate
[deleted]
I think Nash got unlucky coaching the 3 worst off court players in the league. Wasn’t really his fault.
And just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse.
Nobody wants to coach this mid roster. Have to to resort to this. Good job Bobby and Masai
He was actually worse than Derek Fisher
I’d take Dwane Casey in a heartbeat over Nash
tank boys are loving this

We really interviewing everybody lmao can we just fast forward to who the finalists are?
This felt inevitable and is completely fine. I don’t think I (or, really, most people) know enough about Nash as a coach to really feel strongly about it.
There really haven’t been any candidates mentioned so far that I feel strongly against. A few I like more (Quinn, Hammon, Monty) but everyone wants to claim they KNOW someone will/won’t be the right coach. The truth is we don’t know because it’s an entirely different organization with different philosophies and players. Who knows what he learned from his stint in BK.

Unpopular Opinion: Front Office should be fired if they actually hire him.
aaay we finally got nash
Doesn’t sound like Masai believes in this core as he says if he’s giving Nash serious consideration.
Nobody wants to coach the raps when you got much better teams and situations, coaching a middling team is not it
🤦♂️
“I don’t really see us having a head coach. You know what I mean? Spicy P could be a head coach. I could be a head coach.” – FVV Hélà
Steve Nash does TikTok dances with his 32 year old wife. I thought we wanted someone serious.

😂 you see what half of this fan bases obsession with everything Canadian leads us?
You guys remember how historically horrific Jay Triano was about a decade ago? I’d like to avoid that Lmaoo
Yeah, I know the “he had 3 huge egos to deal with, and one of them outright hated him” is going to come out, but take those away, some of his play calling and decision making in game was so atrocious, I think it would be hard in 2k to repeat it.
If he wants an assistant coach spot to learn more on how to be a head coach/mentor the young guys sure. But there’s no way in hell he should immediately get another head coaching job after that atrocity 😂
Sportsnet and TSN are really trying hard to push the “Canada’s Team” angle aren’t they
just give Monty a blank cheque
Final piece to unlock Flynn’s true form
I promise as a nets fan you guys don’t want this. He has zero understanding of rotations.
I’m half expecting Will Lou to be interviewed at some point with how wide their coaching search is lol
tank commander nash it is
just hire someone please
I Masai has that old timers disease.
You get an interview, You get an interview, You get an interview, Everybody gets an interview
Nash is better than the Nets situation showed, would love to have him
This is the way to the #1 pick
Nash gonna do TikTok dances with Scottie after every loss
