I hope not. I would easily take Teresa Weatherspoon over Becky for the Pelicans. Becky having damn near a coordinated PR campaign behind her to get every HC job (which I do think she should get soon) makes it seem like she's the only qualified female head coaching candidate and I hate it.

I am obviously not as much of a fan of the Pelicans as I should be. I did know about Weatherspoon. Reading her bio, would be a good choice.

Rick Carlisle has quit his head coaching job with the Dallas Mavericks. Not fired, quit. This is one day after the GM was fired. There are very loud whispers of a Shadow GM in Dallas controlling entirely too many decisions and it not going over well with many.

7 open HC positions now. Don't be surprised if that number increases if a series ends tonight. Should happen regardless honestly.

I'm surprised that no one here has talked about that fourth quarter collapse by Philly last night that included Embiid missing two clutch free throws.

Still so in shock that I really did not know even if mentioning it. JazzNu started, so sure, that was painful to watch. Unless you are a Hawks fan.

I posted about it in the Season thread. But honestly, they've been pitiful in this way more than once, it's another day for me. Was more points but really, no worse collapse than Game 4, for instance.

Is it getting too confusing having two different threads? We can just have this one going forward, not start a season thread for 2021-2022 when the time comes.

Sixers wasted Curry and Embiid 30 pt games. Besides Simmons and his FT issues, what about max player Harris scoring only 4. Thought Harris was paid TOO much.

Okay, but my question is an open one. It's happened enough that I've wondered if people just preferred the one.
