pretty interesting

i thought she would persist in her dream for an NBA job
unless she thinks Pop is retiring, and it's time to move on

That’s a shame. I was hoping she’d become the first female head coach in the NBA, but kudos to her for the move!

L in my humble opinion unless the bag is ridiculous.

I would have thought the contrary. If Popovich is retiring wouldn't that make her the leading candidate? Unless she knows she isn't of course.

Look I’m not sexist, but I ain’t trying to see women coaching in the NBA.

Who cares if she is female or male as long as she can coach

Whatever WNBA head coaches are being paid, it's 90% overpaid.

Yeah, that's not at all what he said.

What’s landmark about it? Her salary?

Well, frankly, finally. She'd been on a media tour giving her resume unlike anything heard from any other assistant coach. She's in a unique pocket in that she was the first full-time female assistant coach in the NBA, but that Portland interview and the fallout felt like a turning point then and since then.

There were just too many times the Spurs were put on notice and it was starting to feel like the direction between the two sides was diverging. Ok, so glad that's all over and done with, good luck, and each side did what's best for them.

There’s not really a non-sexist way to interpret that.

Let me take care of this part for you: “you can’t say anything these days, cancel culture, woke mob, sjws, blah blah blah”

Let’s swap out just one word and see if that’s better: “Look I’m not sexist, but I ain’t trying to see blacks coaching in the NBA.” See how that looks?

Yep. Five year deal, highest paid WNBA coach.

Let’s swap out just one or two words and see if that’s better: “Look I’m not racist, but I ain’t trying to see blacks coaching in the NBA.” See how that looks?

So would it be ok to say "I'm not racist but I ain't trying to see {insert minority} play in the NBA"?

No?

So why would it be ok to say it about women?

Who gives a F what gender the coach is, they're not required to use their physical attributes to coach.

You claim he says people should be excluded based on their sex. He never said that. He said he doesn't want to see it. Whether or not that's sexists is a different discussion, but at least paraphrase him accurately.

Edit: But lets entertain the sexism claim. If a woman says that she doesn't want to see a man on the View, is that necessarily sexist?

Male athletics/the locker room is a very vulgar place. I want be myself when around the boys. I would feel uncomfortable around a female coach, and I’m sure most males would. Why must women take everything from us?

Females were able to adapt to having males coach them, why can't males?
