By the way what is all this bs about Ewing as HC?

Ewing was a great player, no doubt. But what has he ever shown in terms of leadership or Xs-and-Os or anything else that makes people think he is qualified to be a head coach in this league? Even as a player he was not a leader in the locker room, and was never known for 'heady' play on the court either.

I would stop following the team if this happened. It would be a set up for my all time favorite player. It just wouldn't be fair to him to once again make him the lightning rod for the city in a position he is not qualified to take.

Bring him in as an assistant but please not this!

I want Billy Donovan. He produces fundamentally sound, defensively sound players. This group needs a legit teacher, especially with another lottery pick joining the roster.
