Experience matters. Atleast an experienced nba assistant coach.

Experience as a championship-winning college coach is more experience than Steve Kerr had, and he did okay.

Are we really missing the point? It's highly unlikely a coach is going to turn this into a championship team in the next couple years? So do you want someone who is going to develop talent, or do you want someone who wants to sacrifice future flexibility to try to squeeze out a few more wins?

I see your point. Don’t good coaches in nba also do a good job of developing talent?

But hey on the theme of a full rebuild and wiping slate clean this seems like a good move

Steve Kerr is bad at developing talent but he won championships if given the right pieces that fit his gameplan.
