We did not expect to see John Beilein in the world of the NBA again, after his failed Cleveland experience in 2019/20. Yet former Michigan NCAA coach (68) to become Pistons’ “senior player development advisor” announces the New York Times.
Frequently present at Detroit games this season, John Beilein will undoubtedly flourish more in this shadow role in a very young group, similar to those he led in college basketball.
In Cleveland, the transplant had not taken and he had ended his adventure in the league after just 54 games.
The former Michigan coach had indeed shown himself incapable of imposing his ideas and his “made in NCAA” methods on an NBA workforce, harder to manage than academics and facing much more assertive professional players, who do not had not accepted his physical training and his speech.
