Congrats to him. I’ve liked this guy for a while, going back to when Coach Unseld Jr went out with Covid and he stepped in and coached the team. He has a little routine before each game where he body bumps guys and gets them hyped up. I just like his energy. I feel like he’s screamy enough that he could be a good head coach for the Wizards. Dunno about the bucks. But I’d love to see him get a HC job in the NBA. I know he used to be a globetrotter and by association he’s been part of the Wizards mid-ness but still. Don’t wanna lose him but I wish him luck.
Interesting. Blair coached a few games for us when Wes was sick that one time. He seemed alright. Don’t think he ends up getting the job over the current candidates but it’s nice to know that some people around the league rate our staff somewhat favorably.
That’s my favorite assistant, seems like our players love him too
Get em coach Blair!
He’s got the beard for the gig
