Pistons reportedly won’t consider Bill Laimbeer, who interviewed poorly during last coaching search

Vincent Goodwill of The Detroit News:

"Don’t think they’ll go through the Laimbeer thing again. From what I heard, nobody was really impressed with how he interviewed last time"

This will disappoint a large and vocal contingent of Pistons fans who believe Laimbeer would answer all the team’s problems. I’m certainly not a member of that group, but the Pistons’ last three coaches – Lawrence Frank, John Kuester and Michael Curry – have failed. Maybe Joe Dumars doesn’t effectively use the interview process to determine the right hire.
