Memphis to hire both candidates...

budd1e_lee · 12-01-2004

It looks as though both of the leading candidates for the head coaching job in Memphis will be hired. Fratello will be the head coach, which was pretty much expected, but Eric Musselman will also be hired as the top assistant. Its a bit of an odd hire to me, but Ive always like Fratello.

Musselman didn't deserve to be fired...I'm not sure Phil Jackson could win with that team. Fratello is a solid choice, but is old...Muss would be a great hire for down the road...
