    I think the question on firing was more targeted at Mario Elie and his coaching job.

    Super Mario, back where he belongs. Super. He can be with his wife and kids -- and maybe be in line for a coaching gig here next season. Super, Mario!

    Appreciate the info, is there a link or source for this?

    When I first glanced at the title, I got my hopes up that we hired him as a assistant coach. I would prefer that rather than hiring him as an analyst. Still cool to have him back though.

    Note to NBA League Pass officials: please stop cutting games off ten seconds after the clock reaches 0:00 - give us a few extra minutes to enjoy postgame interviews. Thank you.

    If true, this would be awesome news if I lived in Houston.

    Ha-llelujah. Haaaaa-llelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Ha-lle-lu-jah!!!

    One step closer to being on the bench! Having a little Junkyard dog with ya keeps the road smooth. I can't wait to play Phoenix. Maybe he could walk us through history and describe the path he went through on the way to another CHOMP-PEEYON-CHIP. Ah... the good ole' days are here again..... I hope.

    So did he get fired or not? That's weird that he chose to do this, since he was a coach, but whatever I'm not complaining. Omg this game has to start already. I'm tired of waiting.

    on FSN, they dont immediately do postgame interviews

    as soone as the game finishes, they go to the FSN studio, then after a recap adn highlights and analysis by Bill and Clyde\Bull,only THEN do they show the player interviews they have.


    so LP would have to leave you the FSN feed for roughly 30 minutes in order for you to see the players\coach interviews.

    KNWS is even worse...they do minimal pregame and zero postgame.

    now...I cant speak for the opponents broadcast(which is probably the one LP mostly uses from what I hear) so it is possible they might do those TNT\ESPN-style courtside interviews.
