on the surface it looks like it took a couple of days, but i'd assume tre likely called petie two weeks ago to have a "hypothetical" conversation.

The coaching search does feel a bit rushed on the surface, but it's quite possible they reached out to Darryl months ago and he said 'no thanks'. It's well established that Tippett doesn't see eye to eye with Malone, and obviously Tre does, so it's not hard to see why Tippett isn't a fit. A quick call to AV could determine that he isn't interested, or has other teams he prefers. I find Kruger interesting as a candidate, but he does have a job already, in another country and another sport, so it's easy to see why he might not be a fit. Suddenly you're left with hoping another team fires someone you want in the next few weeks or going with Peters.
It's easy to see how this could come together quickly, when all it takes is a couple quick phone calls to reduce the candidates to only one name.
