    Why does this dude keep getting new job after new job? I don't understand. What character traits has he shown that's been attractive to prospective employers? Does ESPN like guys that can stir up drama because that creates a firestorm that they can over-cover?

    Left Portland for Cleveland because of Lebron coming back. Waits for Lebron to get them a title. Kevin durant joins the Warriors. Good old Chris runs for that job. I mean, I understand opportunities but wow

    He pissed off Lebron and the entire Cavs organization when he got there...don't think it worked out real well for him

    Haynes was nice. What did he do so bad while he was here? If anything he use to sweat the shit out of Lillard and hype him up big time. I think Lillard even loved that guy to the point he was invited to his house for BBQs

    Yeah, I'm not understanding the animosity towards Haynes either.

    Chris is good people. Had the respect of the players. He has like 4 young daughters...... He's from Fresno, so I know he wanted to be back on the west coast. Good luck to him.

    I thought Haynes was actually pretty decent. It was the shit stick (Jabari Somebody?) who followed him who was sucked a big hoagie. And now we have Quick. Gimme Haynes almost any day.....
