    If all NBA players and owners were as smart and open minded as Paul Gasol, there would be zero problems with hiring Hammon.

    If she’s good enough she’ll get in somewhere. I’m just not sure if she’s the best fit here. Purely because if Masai does blow it up it could get ugly. Given the media circus that will no doubt ensue do we really want to put her in a bad spot as the 1st female HC? Personally Id rather her go somewhere where she has a legitimate chance of success right off the hop.

    Although maybe a young up and coming team with less egos to manage would be better for a rookie coach? Idk. It’s interesting to think about.

    it’s already a clown show over here might as well hire her.
