    This thread is pretty awkward. She has 15+ years of professional basketball playing experience and 2 years as a key assistant under Pop. She is qualified for a head coaching job. My issue is that I wouldn't want a rookie coach taking the reigns for a team trying to win.

    But I would bet every dollar I got that she is a far far far superior coach than JB.

    Sure, but play her at the 4. She can rebound better than any of the 4's we've had in the past 10 years.

    Yeah I'll just say it. I have no interest in watching a woman coach the Rockets.

    it would be distracting, i'm sure there's gonna be a player in the locker room that's gonna one to hit that instead of worrying about playing.

    So you're only interested in watching the coaches on the sidelines, and not the actual players? And preferably, you'd like those coaches to be male, huh. You're a mysterious dude.

    I mean, how much worse can she possibly do than JBB? And at least she looks good. Can't say the same about JB. I'd give her a chance tbh if we can't get jvg back. Just because she's a female, people will not like the idea, but there's plenty of crappy coaches that get jobs soon after they finish playing like fisher. So give her a chance, why the f not? Not like we have anything to lose at this point...

    Jesus all you P-C people on this board. Get a grip onto reality and realize that questioning gender isn't always sexist. Just like when you state somebody has a specific race doesn't always make it racist. In today's world you can't say half a damn sentence without somebody pulling the PC card on you. All you're doing by complaining is setting new standards for weak mentalities whilst spreading hate in the same gasp of air. Not one female has ever been the head coach of an organization and when you have players that tend to look at females differently and let their paychecks fly onto a stage full of strippers, it's not wrong to form an opinion about a female coaching the team. When you have players disrespecting all-time greats (Kevin McHale) you have to wonder if they'd look down to a female head coach. It's not sexist, it's reality

    Considering her history of playing for Russia in the Olympics, would that hurt our chances of having any of our players play for Team USA, which has been a positive experience in terms of keeping Harden in shape?

    Theres nothing pc about my response. Nothing.
    Its the definition of sexism to deny a person an opportunity solely based on their gender.
    All I do is complaiining?
    Damn sure I do. And I will continue to do so and calling people by what they are when they post such things. Sexist assholes even if it gets me banned.
    Enough is enough.

    de·ny
    dəˈnī/
    verb
    1.
    state that one refuses to admit the truth or existence of.

    o·pin·ion
    əˈpinyən/Submit
    noun
    a view or judgment formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge.

    We're forming these things called opinions, we're not denying anything. Are we the GM of the Rockets? Last time I looked in the mirror I'm not Morey. I would not mind Hammon as coach, I'm just defending this man's right to having an opinion. And frankly, nobody really gives a **** if you're offended. Get some meat on your bones.

    Ok. So its anyones right to deny the holocaust to say that blacks are an inferior race and to be a nazi. Same exact level.
    And I have the right to call them out on it. His opinion shows what a sexist ******* b**** he is. And thats my opinion.
