His style of offense probably doesn't help his appeal to pro clubs.

Also, IMO , Altman likes to teach and once players go pro, most of them know it all and don’t want to be taught

His teams also are defense driven and we know that's not preached in the nba

If defensive "guru" Nate McMillan can HC the blazers anyone with deas talent can get a HC tender in the NBA

Agreed. Doesn’t seem there are too many new offenses that can make a big difference with today’s players. Not recreating the wheel here. Just acquire enough long bombers. The Triangle worked with the best player ever, and there are variants of it today. Coaches mainly have to work to their players strengths, not force them into some kind of program, being player movement lately. I doubt he would want to wade into those waters (fingers and toes crossed). Feel pretty confident a few NBA teams have at least taken a sniff of what Altman has done at UO. Crazy good.
