Flip Saunders.... He Gone!

[Adam Mac]

4 Days after being eliminated by the Celtics the Pistons starting making some moves. They fired head coach Flip Saunders as Joe Dumars said, "it's time for a new voice to lead our team."

It is said the top candiate is assistant coach Michael Curry

Not a surprise to me

Good move by the Pistons. I think this is who Avery Johnson was waiting for.

While it is the reality in sports, it bothers me that the coach gets the blame when the players don't get it done.

Fact is....the Celtics were the better team. But, Joe D. sounded pissed and that is what the fans want. Who cares, Flip's a millionaire so he can handle it.

Bigger question is what they are going to do with Rasheed Wallace.

The Bulls better not go after Flip or I'll be pist

I hope we release Wallace and draft the player I have been high on for a while in DeVon Hardin. He's a baller center.

I trust Dumars. He's a pretty good judge of talent (though shouldn't have passed up Chris Bosh for Milicic) and I've got faith in him.

Rumor is assistant coach Curry is going to be named HC soon.

ESPN says Curry is new HC
