    Thank the fucking lord we didn't get an older Terry stotts.

    Finally a God damn change and some hope. The fuck is this feeling? Billups all the way.

    And yes, I will bash him if he sucks. Earn the praise.

    That's because those places are all a bunch of kids who think the NBA didn't exist until 2003 when LeBron was drafted.

    This place is full of a bunch of old fogies like you.

    I like the Billups hire. He was one of my favorite as a player. Always calm and collected. I think he’ll be a good coach. I don’t think if players aren’t producing he’ll have any problems sitting them.

    We’ll see. But I’m excited for the new era

    I can pretty much guarantee Hammon will get a HC job at some point. She has the skills.

    Unless the rumors are true that Calvin shared and other teams are able to confirm it.

    True.

    Still think it happens. Especially like an Orlando team.

    A woman coach will happen. I just hope it's a good coach so it doesn't make it that much harder for the next hire. If that's Becky, great, I really wanted her and I'd be lying if Calvin's source didn't concern me.

    She was my 2nd choice and would have loved it if she came on but she will land somewhere for sure.

    Only guy I didn’t want is Carlisle but I doubt he was ever an option.

    I don't know what either of those are? Websites? I thought this was the only Blazer site.

    How can anybody have an opinion and vote in the threads poll? He's NEVER coached! How can you love him or hate him? Somebody on here said "Chauncy will hold them accountable" What?!?

    It's like having an opinion on a musician's first album/cd to come out, when you've never heard them perform. Nobody has a clue.

    Um, you've heard this guys backing vocals before on one very recent album and he was a part of a few successful bands as their bassist. Still this will be his project and you're right, no one knows what to expect.

    Hammon seemed great because she was Pop's right hand person, but hiring her because she's a woman is not a reason.

    Chauncey seems like such a good fit - former PG, championship pedigree, defensive minded, respected, affable, high basketball IQ, great relationships with Dame and Neil...
