There are currently eight NBA teams looking for coaches (if you include Atlanta, and I do) and there have been 22 names linked to those jobs (according to intern Carrie’s research).
NBA coaching search matrix clarifies candidate situation
What if you suddenly needed to explain the NBA coaching search situation to a bunch of kids? We’ve got you covered.
It’s confusing so we intern Carrie made a chart. And by chart, I mean something that you can show your six-year-old daughter.
You’re welcome, Internet!
Oh, and if your kid is super smart and wants actual information, go ahead and show them this...and then sign them up for Mensa find them a nice, comfy institution.

*Please note that we applied no real standards in the creation of this beautiful chart and list. We included real “news” reports with rumors with some speculation and threw in a side of guess work.
But really, does it matter at this point? We might as well have our kids throw some darts at each other and the last one standing picks the coaches for all the teams.
