Why do you guys think we have had such a long delay?
Is there a new candidate?
Are negotiations taking longer than expected with somebody?
Is there an internal dispute?
OR
Does Kiki feel that we would have the best chance at Labron James if we have no coach at all?

Who knows when they're gonna make a decision. They say there could be a decision by the end of the week. But there never is. Then they say there could be by the next 2 days. But there never is. It's a mystery.

maybe its a timing issue. with the warriors picking their coach and the big trade, alot of times teams will wait before announcing their news so it gets more publicity.

Well, Del Harris' agent supposedly said yesterday was the deadline for his client. I support Kiki in his search, but it would be pretty damned embarrassing if Del Harris, of all people, pulled his name from consideration because of the delay.
There HAS to be something going on behind the scenes. Either a delay waiting for someone who's thinking about it (Brown?) or there's an internal battle between David Fredmann (Johnson), Kiki (Del), and Stan (Huggins), while they all assume Alex, Clyde, or Bzdelik will always be there to fall back on.

I'm going with the conspiracy theory...
They're waiting on Brown.... no facts behind it tho... just a feeling..

Anyone old enough to remember Larry Brown's last Denver tour, or his history in general KNOWS the guy is a genius but is flakey as hell. He could literally be telling Kiki, "I want to be there...I think I'll get out of my contract...nah...yeah...well...Iverson is gonna' work out...that damned Answer...s**t...yeah, what the hell, I'm coming...well, I slept on it and have decided to make a go of it...nah, it's all too much and I want a young team to work with...but...well..."

TNF, I completely agree that having Del Harris pull his name out of the running would be further embarrasment to Kiki and the Nuggets.
I cannot believe that a choice among the "known candidates" (Harris, Johnson, Bzdelik, English, Drexler) could not have been made by now, regardless of what David Fredman might think. So I have to believe that Larry Brown, Tubby Smith and/or Bob Huggins is in the mix somehow. Sure hope it's not Huggins.
