Discussion for article #225991

“Hammon is not the first woman hired to be an NBA assistant. Lisa Boyer, now associate head women’s basketball coach at South Carolina, served on John Lucas’ staff in Cleveland in the 2001-02 season.”

I became a huge Becky Hammon fan when she played for the New York Liberty (I still have her bobble-head doll, in the box). She’ll be a great asset to the Spurs. I wish her all the best.

The Spurs are a really great organization. They do so much the right way and they kick ass. They just keep on doing it, too.

Jrlentini, I read some headlines and recalled the same thing. Maybe a decade has made people forget???

Yeah. Good for Pop. He’s a class act.

Will she make 77% of what a male coach would make?
