    Shams didn't even give Barry a pic. I think that means Shams doesn't believe Barry is as realistic of a candidate as the rest.

    Maybe it's Barry and Hammon in a package deal. Fire Olshey, elevate Barry to GM, Hammon to coach?

    Sorry, but Dawn Staley's name ssems like a PC addition to that list. The rest has some solid names on it.

    Wasn't saying him. Saying a person's ability to coach is more important than an alleged connection to the team.

    Agree. Also, the South Carolina program is rolling right now, thanks to her. And she's coaching Team USA. Fucking legend.

    There is no way in hell Olshey would hire someone that could easily replace him as GM.

    The corporate conspiracy nut in me wants to believe that if we hire Becky, the NBA will want her to succeed because she's a woman.

    It is BS that Udoka didn't make the list.

    I still believe it’s Billups’ job to lose. I could see any of these candidates taking it though.

    I do wonder what role Asjha Jones will play. She’s got some connections with Hammon. What if the person the blazers reportedly have been eying for a while was actually Becky? I mean people on here have been connecting her to the job for awhile, wouldn’t be that much of a stretch. And Olshey loves the Spurs.
