Brian Shaw rumored to be frontrunner to succeed Doc Rivers as head coach of the Celtics

The name I've heard most as a possible replacement for Doc Rivers if he leaves the Celtics: Brian Shaw.

This is what players used to wear back in the day to avoid showing their balls

Brian Shaw has been bouncing around like a pinball the past few weeks. As soon as Shaw misses out on one coaching gig, as another team hires a coach, he immediately becomes a front runner for another team. Who knows what type of head coach Shaw would make. He's been supposedly head coach ready for a few years now, but no one has bit on him. Hopefully whoever he coaches he doesn't pull a career suicide move and try and install the triangle as former Phil Jackson assistants (Jim Cleamons, Kurt Rambis, Bill Cartwright) have tried with brutal results. Can you imagine Rajon Rondo in a triangle offense?

Ironically Shaw was drafted by the Celtics after growing up a Laker fan and may finally get a shot as as a head coach in Boston after hoping for many years to get that position in his hometown L.A, first for the Lakers and this Summer with the Clippers.

If Doc leaves, how would you feel about the former Celtic point guard taking the head coaching duties in Boston?
