Another Coach Gets His Pink Slip!

Monday, November 24th, 2008

Coach of the Washington Wizards, Eddie Jordan, was let go Monday after a 1-10 start to the season.

Clearly Jordan was put in a tough spot due injuries to Gilbert Arenas and Brendan Haywood and the Wizards as a team still haven’t found their stride. I think even with Arenas and Haywood Washington had hit its ceiling, falling early in the playoffs in the past 3 seasons. When a team becomes stagnant a major shake up is needed. This is usually done by cutting the coach loose rather than making a blockbuster deal such as the Pistons-Nuggets trade not too long ago.

Its looking as though this may be a lost season for Washington fans and players. They can always look forward to the lottery picks, though.
