As P&P already said in the other Magic thread, they've fired Doc Rivers after a 1-10 start to the season, after a loss to the Jazz gave them a 10 game losing streak. Assistant Johnny Davis takes over as Interim Head Coach.

My guess is Layden fires Chaney and Doc goes to NY, or maybe to the Bulls if they're record continues to slump like it has (rememer he's a Chicago boy).

In related news, Keith Bogans continues to kick arse, while Reece Gaines continues to flop.
 
Lay off Gaines man, the kid will become a premier 1 player in seasons to come just not while Dik Doc was coach :mad: .
 
I was a big fan of Gaines in college, just taking a while to adjust. He'll be good though
 
Replaced with Assistant Coach Johnny Davis. Davis has been with the Magic since 1999. He also coached Philly to a 22-60 record. I find this quote from the chief operating officer amusing given the above facts...

"Johnny is an experienced leader," Weisbrod said. "He is a solid teacher and prides himself on developing talent. We want to give him the opportunity to provide the new voice and direction that our team needs."

I dont think Cartwright will be sacked anytime in the near future.

Probably not, I know Paxson is loathe to make changes mid-season. I just think if the Bulls haven't picked up their slack by the new year, having Doc on the market may change things.
 
If anything, Doc overachieved as a coach. Who can forget his first year when he took a bunch of CBA rejects to within one game of the playoffs? He won't be unemployed for too long.

Sadly, that won't happen. I just heard a interview Layden gave with on a NY radio station and he said that Chaney will be the knicks coach for a loooooooong time.

Funny interview though, those guys just ripped into him.
