We can only hope that you didn't strike a poorly-padded wall in frustration, a la Kyrie Irving, while we were away. Speaking of dubious decisions, first-time head coach Jacque Vaughn has something in common with the new Community showrunners - he's inheriting a massive mess made by management coupled with a disgruntled diva (although Dwight Howard's back should be healthier than Chevy Chase's) and a terrible, trifling TV schedule.
Vaughn, who spent two seasons as an assistant in San Antonio, addressed his inexperience: "Would my resume look a little nicer if it said 14 years of experience? Maybe so." Any amount of years between one and his hypothetical number would be better. For the record, 14 is twice as many seasons as his predecessor had under his belt (Stan Van Gundy also had a lot more stomach under his belt). Vaughn's greener than our currency. Vaughn also admitted he has "no relationship" with the huffy Howard.
A hypnotist might've been the ideal hire because preternatural powers of persuasion might be necessary to keep Howard in Orlando, since he's set on swapping Disney's Dumbo for Brooklyn's DUMBO. Good luck taming the elephant in the room before the circus turns chaotic.
Do you think Howard will go to Brooklyn?
