Celtics hire Kara Lawson as an assistant coach

[KGSweat]

What? A girl who never played in the NBA? Some unknown college coach from Rhode Island and now this? What is the Celtics coaching staff coming to? Fire Stevens immediately!

Excuse me have you played in the NBA?....no and she didn’t go to an unknown school she attended University of Tennessee and is a good medalist in the Olympics and she played in the WNBA. Yes, very different from NBA but a lot better track recorded then you’re sexist ass.

I think you missed my sarcasm.

If he is, no news of it. Most I could find out is he got suspended by the team for two weeks after his conviction.

You wonder if they are just expanding the staff then. Looks like they'll have a lot more this season. Maybe ownership didn't like how coaching went last year?

What I found funny was seeing in her Wikipedia article that she won some award for being a good SHORT female hoopster. (Under 5'8") But she still looks taller than Carsen Edwards in that clip where she's coaching him.

Interesting catch.

Here he is. Kinda looks like a flabbier, shorter, Austin Ainge, but definitely in the general Brad Stevens mold: video geek son of a basketball coach.

Have the Celtics media broken their silence on Jerome Allen yet? Doesn't seem to really fit with the new character push:

Suspended for two weeks in July? Sounds like vacation!

I think they had just the number permitted to sit on the front benches during games last season. I noticed the Bucks, for example, seemed to list two more assistant coaches than the C's had.

Well, it's a lot of new faces. Good time to make those type of changes.
We've got like what, 3 coaches with Developmental experience?

That says something. We just may be keeping all of these Rookies.

Sounds like he's been in Court (of law), of late.
