The guy who fired Malone also traded IT for nothing, two very bad decisions.LOL.
My bad.
Thought he fired Malone too.
Player issues are always a legitimate reason for coach firing. And if Joerger can't relate to his guys, then maybe he isn't that good of a coach. Xs and Os can only take a coach so far. Ability to forge relationships with players is arguably even more important in the modern era.
The days of dictator coach are long past in the NBA.
And everything I've heard about Luke Walton over the last couple days says he's a good players coach which is a plus. Hopefully he does well coaching the team on the court while also getting along with them off it.
