re: What would be your honest opinion of Becky Hammon getting the job?

I'm still waiting on someone to tell me why Hammond would be a good hire.

Prob for the same reason most guys get a shot at a head coaching gig

She had a 15 year pro career playing PG and has been on staff with Pop and countless other sharp basketball minds with varying areas of expertise minds (Messina Xs&Os, udoka scouting and player dev etc)

Why do any of these former players get a job? Do we think these guys were more qualified when they was hired? Lue? Kidd? Jacque Vaughn? Earl Watson? Luke Walton? Mark Jackson?

Is she an offensive assistant? Defensive? Has she helped develop any particular players? Does she draw up sets for Pop? What is her m.o.?

Not gonna pretend to know the intricacies of her duties, but she coached their summer league teams and is credited with aiding in the development of Derrick white, Lonnie walker, and Dejounte Murray. I’m sure she also pulls from each coach’s knowledge like any other ambitious young assistant.
