Will Becky Hammon Get The Job In Milwaukee?
It’s a tough question,
The Bucks are in a tricky situation from the court to the boardroom.
Becky is a very strong willed and focused woman who has had success in the WNBA as a player and also coaching in the NBA summer league.
They needs a shake up no doubt, but I would be concerned that whoever takes the top job in Milwaukee will have no time for mistakes if heading into the 2019 All Star Break with a poor record.
In saying this, if there was anyone that you would want to do an apprentiship under it would have to be San Antonio Spurs all time great and head coach Gregg Popovich.
I made this MEME above to highlight my feelings :)
What are your thoughts?
I want to see Becky get a head coaching gig, but you make a great point. The Bucks have high expectations, and thats not a great situation to jump into.
With Giannis, Kris Midleton, Eric Bledsoe, etc. they will be projected to finish with a top 4 seed in the Eastern Conference next year.
Becky would be better suited to land a job with Orlando or Detroit. If the Bucks underperform, and then panic fire the first women head coach within 18 months of hire that wouldn't be good for anyone.
Thanks for your comment,
The good thing about her portfolio, is the progression path she took at San Antonio and TBH I assumed once Pop was done she would take over.
Maybe behind closed doors he wants to stay on for another 5 seasons so she decided it's time to put my hat in the ring.
Good luck to her, but whatever the result more women in the NBA is a good thing in my books :)
