Any guesses who will hire her next?

Swin Cash or some random lady that works with the money in NBA corporate.
Cathy was bad but it's a bad job because you're not the actual boss since so many decisions run over your head back to the NBA.

:She raised $875 million".........Safe to assume that with basically all the players in the League ardently disliking her ( go back & look back at all their comments about her during the CBA negotiations ) she did not have the players' backing. It was "stated", numerous times during those negotiations, that Clark & Reese played huge roles during those negotiations, specially in regards to improving the players traveling in charter planes as opposed to all the inconveniences in flying on regular domestic planes. They also played huge roles in improving the players hotel residences.

Of course she wasn't going to give the players everything they wanted because she knew that somebody's got to pay for it. That's the problem, the players want all the perks when the league is still being run on a budget.

Good luck making that work with a commissioner that doesn't have her eye constantly on the bottom line.

Would be awesome if they hired a tranny. So they get a “woman”, the intelligence of a man, and so many woke points.
