I think it's crazy to say what he should have just said is, well, we want him back.
But when we hire someone, you know, that's ultimately their decision.
My input would be, you know, this, that he's done a really good job and I would hope that that person would see it, but it's their decision.
Instead, he said, basically, this is Billy's, you know, Billy's role, Billy's job.
He can take it as long as he wants.
And I even emailed Michael to follow up on that.
And to follow up on something else he said that I wanted clarification on to be accurate, and he said his point wasn't just that, like, his point basically to me wasn't that Billy takes precedence over everyone, right, and that Billy makes the decisions.
It was that he didn't see how someone could come in and take over and not want to keep Billy, right?
which I still don't agree with.
Like, I think anyone you would hire would respect Billy Donovan, obviously.
I mean, who wouldn't respect him?
But like people have different philosophies.
People might want a coach that aligns more with their thoughts on basketball.

No, I think you're right.
I mean, and I think it's just...
Kind of speaks to what we see as low standards, you know what I mean?
Just like his โ he's like, oh, he's done a good job here given what โ you know, the players he's had.
Well, I mean, the players aren't actually โ listen, he's had some rosters that were disjointed 100%, but he's had talent.
I mean, like he's had plenty of talent.
