Shaw is ready to coach his own team, but according to a source, he is cautious, looking for the right job. Yes, he has previously interviewed for nine head-coaching positions, but year after year, teams go through thorough searches looking for their “right” guy when, too often, they have a candidate in mind but do the extensive search so as not to appear hasty. (Cleveland was the exception this spring when they targeted Brown and re-signed him in short order.) CSNPhilly.com

When Salley chimed in on who he thinks would be the perfect candidate to be the Pistons next coach he mentioned that Pistons owner Tom Gores and team president and general manager Joe Dumars would get a guy who could make the team playoff-bound right away. "“I’m going to say one thing: Brian Shaw should be the next coach of the Detroit Pistons; Brian Shaw should be the next coach of the Detroit Pistons; Brian Shaw should be the next coach of the Detroit Pistons,” Salley said. “If they do (hire Shaw) guaranteed 50 wins.” Booth Newspapers

This may be the offseason that Pacers associate head coach Brian Shaw finally gets the opportunity to be a head coach. But he may have to wait until the Pacers are out of the playoffs before he interviews for a job. Pacers President Donnie Walsh said he prefers for his assistant coaches to wait until after the playoffs to interview for openings. “I’m not saying I won’t change my mind, but that’s what I would like,” Walsh said. Walsh said he hasn’t been contacted by any teams asking for permission. Indianapolis Star

Four other assistants that could get interviews are Miami's David Fizdale, Indiana's Brian Shaw, Golden State's Mike Malone and Philadelphia's Michael Curry.

Nate McMillan is the early speculative favorite on the list of coaches Dumars might consider. Like a prime Tiger Woods in a golf tournament, size of field could be the former Seattle and Portland coach's biggest obstacle. The Van Gundy brothers also might hold some intrigue. Among those who have not been NBA head coaches, Brian Shaw, a perennial bridesmaid for head-coaching jobs, and Kelvin Sampson also might fit the profile of coaches Dumars might consider.

Shaw interviewed for vacant coaching positions during the offseason with the Portland Trail Blazers, Orlando Magic and Charlotte Bobcats. But Shaw turned down an offer to coach Charlotte, which currently boasts the NBA's worst record. "I want to be in a situation where I have a chance," Shaw said. "Usually when you come into your first head coaching job, you don't get to dictate what the situation is going to be. But you want a chance and an organization that has a game plan going forward that's sustainable and where you have some pieces of value where you can put things together and get on the fast track."
