Tim Grgurich (born June 10, 1942) is an American basketball coach and native of the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania having attended Central Catholic High School in the city. He also served as the head basketball coach at UNLV for the first seven games of the 1994–95 season before abruptly resigning. He arrived at UNLV in the mid–1980s and imported the ameoba defense developed when he was a Pitt assistant under Timmons and Charles Ridl to Jerry Tarkanian's teams. As a player at Pitt he led the team to two consecutive post season tournaments in 1963 and 1964. He then served 12 years (1964–1975) as an assistant coach and head of recruiting under Timmons and Ridl, helping to develop Pitt's ameoba formation that launched a 22 game win streak for Pitt and that he continued with at UNLV winning the NCAA championship. He has served as an assistant coach for several NBA teams including extended stays with the Seattle SuperSonics, the Portland Trail Blazers and the Denver Nuggets, and was the highest paid assistant in the NBA for several seasons being sought after for his trusted knowledge of the game.
