So glad Becky Hammon is being considered. I was shit on from many bros in this sub for even suggesting it. Let’s go Becky! Get it

    Wow, what a lone wolf you are. She’s one of the most respected assistants of the last decade in the NBA and is at her absolute apex right now in Vegas. Not exactly going out on a limb with that opinion. It’s like saying “See guys, I TOLD YOU ICE CREAM IS GOOD!”

    Best not to post your opinion on this sub, everyone is still thinking with emotion over using common sense and intelligence, probably gonna be like that till summer league.

    Why wouldn’t they consider her. Pop protege, history of winning, by all accounts a brilliant basketball mind.

  4. Raptorsthrowaway1

    What a visionary you are bro. You sound like the type of guy to tell women your a feminist to boost your chances.

  5. Hazelwood38

    Of that list of names. I have her at the top of it.

  6. rockstar7007

    Why wouldn’t she be considered. They considered her and interviewed her last time lol

  7. echoshep

    Hiring Hammon would also be such a turnaround from hiring Udoka.i love it

  8. thebigbadowl

    Was hoping Cheryl Miller would be considered because she ticks more boxes.

    But Becky Hammon is okay too!

    Would open lots of doors for female NBA head coaches in the future!

    Also having the Raptors be the first NBA team to hire a female head coach would be a historic achievement for the organization.

    Honestly you’re not going to find someone who hasn’t already been an NBA coach/NCAA coach who has a BETTER coaching resume than Hammon. Looking at this list here she is by far the most standout candidate IMHO.

    But I will trust in whomever the FO chooses

  10. smoothsoul23

    Would love if Raptors somehow get her. Stackhouse and Kenny Atkinson would also be good choices

  11. Nunchuckery

    Ohh you think the Raptors are took woke Ime Udoka? You haven’t even begun to see our wokeness!

  12. ScotlandBarnes

    Being considered is nothing more than a PR move. She’s been offered interviews for years, I’ll respect it when someone actually gives her a job offer.

  13. beefJeRKy-LB

    I thought it was far fetched because she already has an awesome job.

    becky is a beast, i would love if the team made this move. if she was a male coach she’d almost certainly have a head coaching job in the NBA and she just won a chip in the dub. her style is well suited for the raps roster as well, imo. she’d be a great fit.

    Honestly it’s been disgusting reading the comments on the Sportsnet post and twitter. People just absolutely shitting on her because she’s a women. She is more than deserving of a shot at being an NBA head coach

  16. GoldenBella

    My only concern is that if we’d eventually have to fire her, the red tape would be… Significant…. For the sport

    A female coach is the last thing this team needs. A big reason why I wanted Nurse gone was it seemed like the players weren’t responding to him well. How are guys going to respond to a woman as coach?

  18. TechnologyWeekly6561

    With the exception of a obviously higher pay cut, I wonder if Becky would actually want to leave a championship WNBA team for a Raptors team in absolute limbo?

  19. LemmingPractice

    If she’s the best candidate, she should get the job. If she’s not, then she shouldn’t. As long the decision is based on merit and not gender I’m good with it.

  20. ausmankpopfan

    I want her to get it she seems very talented and she is from the Pop stable

  21. jaydogggg

    I want her, I really didn’t want ime this seems like the right direction.

  22. theflyingsamurai

    literally the last name on the list

  23. Flameknight81

    Hammon is legit, there is a reason why teams have interviewed them in the past. I am glad the front office is interviewing a lot of good candidates and aren’t tunneling on one or two names.
