wow...that is a pretty shocking thing to say. The sad part is he probably doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. All I can think is if the roles were reversed and a white player said he wanted a white coach.... smh
Did you see this part? The Sixers fired GM Tony DiLeo and replaced him with Sam Hinkie, another executive whose background is analytics and not basketball. Hinkie comes from the home of over-hyped stats, the Houston Rockets. One rival GM called it “the continued “Moreyization’ of the league,” a slap at Houston GM Daryl Morey’s influence, with more teams using an array of stats to primarily base their decisions. Morey’s Rockets have yet to light up the league.
What people fail to acknowledge is that the Rockets have the largest scouting dept in the league. Back during the GFC when teams were cutting scouts to save money the Rockets added more to their payroll.
Honestly if Chris is doing this because Sterling is a racist...you know what would be a bigger statement Chris? "I'm taking my talents elsewhere and not working for a racist." that would be a huge statement Chris. What you're doing now is really no better than Sterling.
Regardless of the circumstances, the guy is trying to tell the team who to hire as coach. No player is more important than the team. Do. Not. Want.
This is Mitch 'he works for a rag of a tab for goodness sakes' Lawrence who gives total credence to the very fact that he has no/nada/nil/zilcho cred. Besides, Clips have an African-American coach. His name is Chris Paul. We wears #3. Who does his job worse - - Sterling or Lawrence? OK, Meh Donald is the winner er loser of that bingothon.
