I actually do think he seems to be a decent coach, but he appears young. Couple of things I’ve mentioned, as I’ve kind of studied this league I won’t say I’ve gone all in. I’m still pretty much only watching CC play, a few other games, but I am trying to understand things like advanced analytics that I’ve never really believed in per se and gauging the quality of teams. With that said there are essentially 5 really good coaches, don’t remember all their names but The Lynx, Aces, Liberty, Suns & Storm. I really like The Storm coach, she’s cagey & Stephsnie White is terrific.
Nate Tibbets from the Phoenix I believe is good but he has an aging team and this is his first year as head coach.
After that, it’s a crapshoot of I don’t know yet to piss poor. The Atlanta coach is not popular, demonstrative, and I think potentially petty…
Dallas I haven’t seen, T-Spoon is worse than Sides in my mind, LA I don’t know much about?
But someone else has said, multiple someone else’s, if it was a super desirable job and paid well. You’d have these college coaches jumping and that just doesn’t happen and there are a bunch of high-end college coaches pretty much all making significantly more than these WNBA coaches.
I’m still not particularly convinced Sides is a terrible coach, she’s learning on the job in an organization that quite frankly has sucked for quite some time and they really didn’t have the ideal personnel, but you do have to give her credit for getting them going the right direction.
