I don't think any of us really know what we're talking about when we talk about JVG's coaching abilities because he has not coached in a while. We have no idea how he would coach todays game which is a lot different than the game played even just 8 years ago.
Who knows, maybe he's the guy we need but we can't know that. I feel like the only reason we're talking about him is because he's a Van Gundy and he's on t.v and he's kinda cool cause he says stuff.You come at the King, you best not miss.

Coaching is easy....scream keep your hands up, yell at people who don't get back on defense, and pull JV as soon as he catches fireFor still frame photograph of me reading the DeRozan thread please refer to my avatar

Seems like we're overrating this guy simply because he says things on TV that his colleagues are afraid to say.
Players and coaches really love and respect JVG though. He's the guy that took a punch from Marcus Camby. I don't seem him having a problem building a staff or relating to players.

JVG would be a great motivator. It's not like Casey is some "new age" innovator with the X's and O's. He does however have some good assistant coaches, which JVG would also have. He'd have respect from the players forsure, his name and face carry clout in this league, and being on TV the past bunch of years probably HELPED his cause. Make no mistake the man is still up on basketball, and has probably had a chance to breath, and watch "today's game" from the sidelines without the bias and emotion, all 30 teams.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum
