This isn't a shot at the Sixers or Philly sports.

It's just that this is another NBA coach getting fired after a bad start.

Wrecky, iggles, do you think this was a good decision, or should he have had a little more time?

MrIggles is not a NBA fan.

I said that he would be fired before January and I was right-lol I think the next coach to be fired is Michael Curry for Detroit.

This breaks me, cause MO is one of the nicest, really good guys out there, and he was a pretty good coach. This year though, I don't know what happened behind the scenes but he wasn't doing the job. We have a real good team, we have a nice up and coming core and veteran guys like Andre Miller that can and should be getting it done. Ed picked up a lot of (nice) free agents in the offseason and it should of all pieced together way before now, but it hasn't. He got Elton Brand, 3 point specalist and veteran Donyell Marshall, drafted Maurice Speights and brought in a couple other guys- Theo Ratliff etc. No excuse for this poor play and bad record, even if the season isn't close to being halfway over yet. C'mon guys. Sucks that Mo was fired though. Maybe it needed to happen. Now we just have an interim head coach right? Til the end of the season. I hate those interim coaches. Let's swap him with Larry Brown on Charlotte and bring him back again, without Iverson this time though.
