Out of all my years i've never seen Coach Pop emotional i'm sure he is like a proud father watching Coach Becky now as a successful coach of her own team!!
Saw Becky at a cafe in San Antonio recently , she was alone working on some stuff , I didn’t bother her but I appreciated to be in the presence of a legend
Coach Hammon was nervous in the beginning, but her tenacious character shows half way through her speech. She’s a leader and any organization would be lucky to have her.
Congrats to her, she did it the hard way, she earned it. Seeing coach Pop holding back tears watching like a proud father, I don’t know if anybody noticed, but David Robinson was sitting behind him and was tearing as well. Well done, and well deserved coach Hammond.
Becky you are a great role model to sooo many people and young girls thank you for using your platform to inspire many and for putting Jesus and your family up on top!!
I started folIowing basketball at age 7, around the same time NBC began broadcasting its games. I never knew Ahmad Rashad was a legendary football player with the Vikings til much later in life. Growing up, I only knew him as the sideline reporter for NBA on NBC & host of Inside Stuff. In fact, I do remember Ahmad playing for the Sixers on a one day contract when they opened the Target Center. He did a segment on that show highlighting his performance LOL
I don't really watch the NBA anymore. But when she is eventually hired to be an NBA Head Coach, that will be the team I root for. And she WILL be an NBA Head Coach...and I think it will be in San Antonio.
@@VeraxMusic I just searched now, the girl with the kids they keep showing is Becky's spouse. I think what this comments pertains to is that she is interested in women, not men
I think it’s only players that need to be retired. I guess it makes sense for coaches to be inducted while they’re still coaching since waiting an extra 5 years from the point they retire could make it difficult for them to enjoy the moment due to old age or bad health. It would suck if most coaches only got to be inducted after they passed for example.
Becky is one of the few I really wanted to see get a job in the NBA She can coach her ass off. If men can listen to thier mothers they can certainly listen to a female coach. 😂🤣. Especially in basketball. Where both sexes play the game.
I want to congratulate Becky but did anyone pay attention to what she said her parents were probably doing........ lime killing or hunting animals like if these animale dont have blood bones veins feelings and spirit, Im sorry but that is not cool all animals deserve to live in peace not afraid t9 be killed for no rwason but to kill like they arent anything well let me tell you all thes3 animals feel love and all they want is to live so with that said BECKY ITS NOT COOL THAT YOU SAID THAT LIKE NOTHING AND TELL YOUR PARENTS THAT ANIMALS HAVE FEELINGS JUST LIKE THEY DO. 😠
Do you think that nothing hunts them, kills them and eats them in nature? They live their life constantly aware of this and this day could be their last!!
South Dakota raised Hammon sold her citizenship to Russia because she didn't make the US Olympic team. She is a Russian citizen and should be in Russia.
@@jeremyirons2774 this isn't the NBA hall of fame, no such place exists actually. It's purely the "Basketball Hall of Fame", hence college and worldwide players/coaches are inducted
becky hammon is good but a hall of famer? come on.. - 0 rings - 0 mvps - 2 first team all wnba - 2 second team all wnba - 0 defensive teams - 0 records - 13/2/3 career average - 43% shooter
Just seems early. She was a good player and shes proven that she could end up being an all time coach in the WNBA, maybe even have success as a NBA head coach. But shes so early in her head coaching career. The timing feels forced because Popp was going in and they were just hamming it up for the publicity which dimishes the moment just a bit. Still congrats to Becky and hope for her continued success
