Jared Dudley:
This seems crazy, but everyone knows Dudley is a head coach waiting to happen. High IQ, good defender, good teacher, great personality. They could continue to have Dudley sit on the bench as a player/coach, or they could just go ahead and get it over with and move him directly to the bench. We know he understands defense and hustle and that’s a lot of what this team needs now. The X’s and O’s he could figure out as he goes.
