That is why we have women sports... To have them coach, and announce men's sports is ridiculous... Mad as well do away with men athletes period... Especially after having their "Me Too" movement not so long ago... Have you men forgotten!!!??? Woman now a days are so complacent on competing with, and being men that they lost their uniqueness as woman... I barely started watching basketball again after 10 years, and now I guess I will ban it for life...

As a Laker fan, I can say she's broken many boundaries for being a coach and a former player. She loves the game of basketball and she's proven it on and off the court. Especially, working under the great POP who has been like a teacher/co-worker. Hopefully, she finally becomes a permanent coach. But could she take over the big shoes for POP? We may or may not know. But one thing can be said is that she's a badass.

What dumb questions really because height has anything to do with coaching, they could at least of had someone who actually watches sports ask the questions. You want her to be taken seriously then treat it seriously, most fans are a little anxious about her ability to actually you know coach. I keep hearing about pioneer and first woman and demeaning questions as it pertains to basketball you wouldn't ask Frank Vogel these questions. He's never played in the league or Mike Dantoni idc that she's a female it doesn't matter she could be a chicken for all i care. All I care about is can she do the job she's been giving and asking weak questions does nothing but patronize and take away from the real goal you coaching

@sturkeliousrron4934 3 года назад

The argument that men coach women’s teams is a joke. The reason men ever started to coach women’s basketball is because in its infancy there were not enough women who knew how or wanted to coach the teams, and as time moved on, like most things in America, the copycat mentality took place.

@GroverJ83 3 года назад

It's wild this is such a big deal with people when out of necessity in youth sports men having been coaching women,and women have been coaching men without incident. No reason Becky shouldn't be a head coach after this offseason or in the next few cycles.

@high-defRJ 3 года назад

If Coach Pop hangs it up and if the chance is there, Becky should coach the Spurs. But regardless, I'm rooting for her to get an NBA coaching job since NBA and the sports landscape is changing over time with many women and minority hirings, showing the diversity and mirroring both American culture and global culture.
