  1. Article references the Wizards a couple of times in terms of coaching related information for the story. Kara Lawson and Kristi Tolliver are mentioned. I’ve been wondering why the Wizards are just hangin out while a ton of other coaches, including coaches like Sam Cassell, get interviewed for open jobs in the NBA. I’m hoping it’s because the Wizards will make a groundbreaking move by hiring one of the many great female coaches out there. No coach is expected to take the Wizards roster and make it competitive. Players just need to improve. And specifically Kara Lawson is absolutely solid at explaining concepts and motivating players. Hope Ted finally does something to make the league applaud a move the Wizards made.

    Man if Becky Hammond didn’t make it to the NBA, I don’t see how Kara Lawson or anyone else would make the immediate jump
