Collins, of course, played for the 76ers back in the day. He also was the coach Michael Jordan got fired in Chicago before Phil Jackson stepped in and the Bulls won all of those championships. And the coach Michael handpicked years later to coach the Wizards during his comeback. He coached Grant Hill too, you know, when Grant was a superstar.
I have no idea if this hire is a good thing or a bad thing. It certainly isn't an exciting one. And it's actually kind of sad, because Doug is an awesome analyst. TNT will surely miss him. But in honor of Doug, who's always seemed like a great guy and a man who certainly knows all there is to know about basketball, dance til your heart's content to the theme song from Doug.
Well that's the Mike Leighton i remember. After getting lit up for 5 last night this series is no sure thing yet. Hope you're ready to go 7 games in this series.
