Good riddance! This couldn’t have come at a better time. It’s still early in the season, we can cut him loose and get a real not interim coach to come in and be with this young core for years. After losing such a close game last night to terrible last minute decisions and seeing Chauncey all smiles and shaking hands right after the buzzer went off, was so infuriating I couldn’t believe someone could be so happy after a loss like that but now it all makes sense. I hope they fire him today!

Innocent until proven guilty. Relax! Plus, the current FBI is incompetent. Just look at the Epstein mess. I want to see more proof before considering them guilty.

The investigation started over 9 months ago when the corpse was still "in charge". So I presume had Copmala won this would all be fine?

Are you suggesting that Patel has any hand in day-to-day FBI operations? I promise you he's still trying to figure out how to work the espresso machine in the break room! :lol:

I dont think the timing is a coincidence. They wanted to embarrass the league during opening week. Focus on this while ignoring $50K bribes, market manipulation and insider trading, Epstein...

Without a doubt, it's not coincidence.

I blame this on his tenure with the clippers, he was a defensive minded Piston Stallworth until he joined those pesky clippers and we see the alleged hot water their in this year.

Hmm, You got all the appeasing and proper language backing up your takes. It speaks volumes, not in a good way
