The Orlando Magic are currently in the middle of hunting for a brand spanking new head coach. They are a good team that has a legitimate future in my opinion. Oladipo, Payton and Vucevic? I’m sorry but if they keep growing together I see a big 3 coming down in Orlando. I’m serious about that.
Honestly if I could coach. I’d take the job. I think it’s the best job out there in the NBA. According to Marc Stein of ESPN.com. The Magic already have their shortlist.
The Magic, sources say, already have held informal discussions about the position with former Orlando fan favorite ?Scott Skiles and rate the ex-Phoenix Suns, Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks coach as a serious candidate for the job.
In addition to Skiles, sources say the Magic have interest in both Chicago coach Tom Thibodeau — who is widely expected to part company with the Bulls at season’s end — as well as Florida coach Billy Donovan.
Now I don’t even want to know why they would want Billy Donovan after that fiasco that Stan Van Gundy saved the Magic from.
They would have to wait for Tom Thibodeau. Since he’s currently heading to the Playoffs. That would be an interesting fit. And Skiles. Well if they want a coach badly, go for Skiles. Hire him now and you have more time to get him acclimated to the organization.
