How about instead, Tre and Burke do some ####ing research and get to know the top end coaches in AV and Sutter and see if perhaps they're better than Peters. You know how we know Sutter and AV are good - its because they've had incredible success with multiple teams.
The chain of logic Elliott is spouting to suggest Peters is beyond stupid. It's basically advocating Tre should look past the garbage track-record and lack of experience of Peters because he knows him. And it suggests Tre should basically discount the amazing track record and experience of AV and Sutter because he doesn't know them.
And if that's how the organization is thinking of this decision internally, it 100% explains the decades of garbage we've seen on the ice.

Maybe Treliving doesn't want to feel like a small fish?
