City/Team: Madrid Real 3 GM Preferred Skills: 3-Point Shot, Passing, Defensive Rebounding Arena Name: Barclaycard Center
Head Coach: Pedro Ferrandiz (All I know is that he loves the fast break, so maybe make him D'Antoni-style. He's a legend in Madrid.) Assistant: Pablo Laso (Current head coach. Great at passing/stealing as a player, so I'm assuming he coaches those well) Assistant: Zeljko Obradovic (Didn't see anyone else claim him. Loves ball movement and apparently Gregg Popovich stole his philosophy and some of his plays) Assistant: Lolo Sainz (Help a brotha out and give him some defense/post offense) Scout: Clifford Luyk (Stuck around the team long enough in a variety of roles, so he'd make a good talent scout)

FYI to any team putting a quality HC as an AC - you are only stunting the possibility that the coach you assign as an AC will ever be able to live up to their name. I can't give any team starting out 4 HOF coaches worth of skill on the bench. (I am considering instituting a rule that if someone else names your AC as an HC then you need to pick again. I don't want to police that but I will if I have to.) What if I want my head coach to be someone that has already been picked to be a scout?

Is he tied to your team/region specifically? He's the head coach now, Dusan Ivkovic. Then I'd say you probably have the right to him and the other team should pick someone else. If I were you I'd kindly PM them and inform them of the situation. Ask them to find another scout.
