看來 Rambis 已經確定接 Timberwolves 的教練了。（這樣新球季 Jackson 屁股不舒服時，要靠誰帶隊出征啊....）　 http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=4386466 Sources: Rambis will be Wolves coach By Marc Stein ESPN.com The Minnesota Timberwolves and Kurt Rambis have reached terms on a deal that will install Rambis as the Wolves' new head coach, according to NBA coaching sources. Sources told ESPN.com that the Wolves are planning a Tuesday news conference to introduce Rambis as the replacement to Kevin McHale. Long considered a potential heir apparent to Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson, Rambis has been lured away from Jackson's staff by a four-year deal believed to be worth in excess of $8 million. After turning down the Sacramento Kings' job during the NBA Finals, Rambis was chosen by new Minnesota president David Kahn from a group of finalists that also featured ESPN analyst Mark Jackson and Houston Rockets assistant coach Elston Turner. Kahn interviewed more than a dozen candidates in a deliberate search that began after the NBA Draft in late June. The Los Angeles Times first reported Wednesday that Rambis traveled to the Twin Cities to meet with a Wolves contingent that included owner Glen Taylor, which appeared to signal that the 51-year-old was the choice to fill the league's only remaining coaching vacancy. Minnesota hired Kahn in May after a 24-58 season and a protracted search for a new front-office chief that focused initially on San Antonio's Dennis Lindsey and Portland's Tom Penn. Kahn has since been unafraid to take risks and took his time with big decisions, first announcing that he would put off the coaching search until after the draft and then selecting point guards Jonny Flynn and Ricky Rubio with the fifth and sixth overall picks. McHale ended a nearly 15-year association with the franchise in June when -- despite the support of franchise cornerstones Al Jefferson and Kevin Love -- he declined to return as coach after being offered only a one-year contract to stay. Unforgettably clotheslined by McHale in Game 4 of the Celtics-Lakers championship series in 1984, Rambis was the only Wolves finalist with NBA head coaching experience. Rambis coached the Lakers for the bulk of the lockout-shortened 1999 season, posted a 24-13 record before Jackson arrived for his first stint with the Lakers.
