Mike Fratello notwithstanding, it appears that TNT continues to be the best place for basketball coaches to spend time between gigs. A week after Danny Ainge joined the Celtics, the cellar-dweller Cleveland Cavaliers ask New York if they can speak to Jeff Van Gundy. Hiring Van Gundy would be a great move for Cleveland, but I’d think he’d want a more high-profile and talent-laden club. (Of course, they might always get LeBron…) Ah well. I still wish Van Gundy had never left the Knicks. (As for playoff news, Chris Webber’s injury has greatly depressed me, but I’ll stick with my earlier picks for now.)
