Report: O'Brien frontrunner for assistant job

After losing both of his defensive and offensive coordinators in consecutive
summers following the 2011 NBA championship, Dallas Mavericks coach Rick
Carlisle appears on the verge of adding another member to his staff.

Last season, Carlisle kept things in-house, replacing the departing Dwane
Casey with current defensive coordinator Monte Mathis after Casey accepted
the head coaching gig in Toronto. Now, however, reports say that Carlisle
will look elsewhere when filling the void left on offense after lead
assistant Terry Stotts was named head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers
earlier this month.

And according to ESPN.com’s Marc Stein, the man that replaced Carlisle in
Indiana back in 2007 has emerged as the lead candidate for the position.

According to the report, Jim O’Brien has ascended to the top of Carlisle’s
wish list after fellow candidates Jay Triano and Steve Clifford recently
accepted positions with the Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers, respectively. As
Stein writes, Carlisle’s preference is to add a person with NBA head
coaching experience, making O’Brien a more-than-suitable candidate.

Before being let go by the Pacers midway through the 2010-11 season, O’Brien
amassed a 303-327 career record in Boston, Philadelphia (one season in
2004-05) and Indiana. He also led the Celtics to the ‘02 Eastern Conference
finals after a 49-33 record during the regular season.

That would bring plenty of veteran experience to the Dallas sideline
alongside Carlisle. And if the report is true, O’Brien has already
interviewed for the position and appears to be the frontrunner for the job.

一直被挖牆腳(去年去暴龍的凱西跟今年要去拓荒者的Stotts)之後，
小牛也開始要補上助理教練的缺了！
由於有些競爭者找到落腳處了，
再加上卡帥想找有總教練經歷的人選，
所以目前的領先者是Jim O’Brien！
在執教生涯(溜馬->賽爾提克->76人)累積了303勝-327敗。
