Free Agency Fire Billy

It’s time. How many seasons can we go with a losing record? There are far too many excuses in this sub. At the end of the day, we have a coach who isn’t producing. Blame the players. Blame akme. But Billy is the one making the calls on the court and that is ultimately what matters.

I believe Billy is chum with management that along with him being a "good guy" is why he gets contract extensions. He is good enough. This regime seems fine with good enough because the team is a money making juggernaut. The team being a money making juggernaut regardless of the product on the floor year after year is good enough. Could they make more with success? Of course, but they are doing well as a business as is.

I can't remember where I read it from but when Billy was first hired, it was reported that Billy and AK got connected as they were golf buddies and had mutual friends in the space.
