Three finalists for Bobcats' head coaching vacancy

Former Utah Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan, Indiana Pacers assistant Brian Shaw and Los Angeles Lakers assistant Quin Snyder are the three finalists for the Charlotte Bobcats' head coaching vacancy, the Charlotte Observer reported.

The Bobcats are planning to interview Shaw and Snyder a second time so they can talk with Bobcats owner Michael Jordan, who was present when Sloan was interviewed last week.

Sloan is the only one of the three who has been an NBA head coach, although Snyder was a college head coach at Missouri.

The Bobcats are seeking a replacement for Paul Silas, who was fired after the season.
