Siyam na lang ka duwa ang nahabilin sa regular season games sa dihang gitudlo nga interim head coach si Tuomas Iisalo para sa Memphis Grizzlies.
Ang Grizzlies naglingkod sa ikalima nga pwesto sa Western Conference bitbit ang 44-30 (win-loss) card ug nagpreparar karon para sa playoffs.
Unang duwa ni Iisalo isip interim head coach pakyas kay pilde man sila sa Los Angeles Lakers, 134-127, apan madasigon siya nga lakip lang kini sa iyang adjustment.
Sigon sa first-time NBA coach nga motuo siya sa “one-game at a time” nga paagi.
“A lot of times, you don't know what happened during he game before you watch video,” sigon ni Iisalo. “I can already say we (didn't do) the basics in the first half, so we've got to do a better job.”
Nakuha ni Iisalo ang coaching job Sabado (PH time) human giputbol ni Memphis general manager Zach Kleiman si coach Taylor Jenkins.
“I'm responsible for everything,” ni Kleiman. “I'm responsible for coaching. I'm responsible for the roster. I'm not trying to absolve myself of anything. I'm excited to see what this team can do the rest of the way, but this was the conclusion that I came to that this was in the best interest of the team and we push forward with this group.”
Si Jenkins maoy fifth longest-tenured sa liga, sunod nila San Antonio’s Gregg Popovich, Miami’s Erik Spoelstra, Golden State’s Steve Kerr ug Denver’s Michael Malone. / RSC
