I don't see what Willie Mays had to do with this.

[@michaeljohnson7945]

It doesn't. It's just a bad analogy.

[@tomchrisfield7348]

What Monty just endured is exactly what Dan Hurley totally avoided by turning down the Lakers job.

[@bernyourhart]

Exactly, get paid a lot but be publicly scapegoated by a terrible franchise.

Endured 65m

[@bronsonbamnallen1633]

if Lakers fans could read they would be very upset

[@future_teknokrat7585]

Detroit should have hired a new front office before changing coaches last year.

[@scarletspider1240]

As a 42 year old lifelong Michigan resident who is a Pistons fan….Tom Gores has been a terrible owner. Simply throwing money at stuff doesn’t accomplish anything if you don’t have a solid plan and hire people who know what the hell they’re doing. This franchise has been one of the worst in the league since he bought the team from Davisons wife after he passed. Such a shame.

[@future_teknokrat7585]

I think most realistic fans knew this was going to happen as soon as he signed the contract.

[@jumahbrady670]

Facts 💯

[@scarletspider1240]

No one goes to the arena because no one wanted it in the first place. The Palace Of Auburn Hills (which was in a pretty nice suburb of Detroit) was an AWESOME venue that had just been completely remodeled..then they moved the team to downtown Detroit instead and completely leveled the Palace. As someone who lives on the west side of the state…there’s no way in hell I’m driving 2.5 hours across the state to go to downtown Detroit to watch a Pistons game.

[@MIGGYME1]

I never understood why he took the pistons job in the first place. Monty isnt a “builder” type of coach,u have to give him a decent enough roster to compete for him to shine

[@flyguy7825]

Well, if you heard what saying it’s clearly about the money, screw pride it was about the money was about the money in the perks that’s why I took the job, but what he fails to realizes that believe it or not people in this world have pride and what they do

[@marcusgarvey6231]

Williams has pocketed 85-90 million plus since 2019. He’s a genius.

[@HakeemTheDream616]

He never wanted to coach this team, and never gave a F. He needs that 28 game losing streak on his permanent record!!!

[@HardCold-Alquan]

Damn, no patience for these weak teams! Why do they pay coaches so much, then get rid of them ASAP? If I am the owner of one of theses teams, I am firing all management who paid him that money and decided to part ways. you don't waste MY money! Go some place else and waste your own.

[@HardCold-Alquan]

i am not sure what these team's management keep doing in the NBA lately, but how quickly do they think that championships can be put together? You should always dismiss the first year since coaches inherit teams and have not real input. You need stability and to know where things are going and not hit the panic button - like Milwaukee did.

[@TheFilmSpace1]

Mark Jackson or Earl Watson would fit this young team. Maybe Chris Quinn

[@flyguy7825]

Bro Mark Jackson is not coming back to coach Detroit Pistons

[@TheFilmSpace1]

@@flyguy7825Ollie, mark or Earl I think. They need a young coach to build with

[@greggibson33]

@@flyguy7825 Nobody has MJ on their list.

[@HakeemTheDream616]

Mark Jackson definitely

[@flyguy7825]

@@TheFilmSpace1 I agree they need a young coach, but that coach is going to need time to develop the roster because it’s super young. Those guys are not ready to win.

[@Blackbolt-411]

If I’m Monty I’m not coaching this upcoming season

[@blackurustrikes2328]

WHO is saying the NINETY THREE years old Willie Mays "died too soon"? I have heard LOTS of things said about Willie. But his dying too soon has NOT been amongst such. Hell, most of the foks I have witnessed appear to genuinely appreciate Willie being here for as LONG as he was here!

[@califleadog5657]

How much did Frank Vogel pocketed?

[@nicoalexander774]

I believe he’s owed $30M from the Suns.

[@JosifovGjorgi]

$65M = around $50k / month for the next 100 years a great deal

[@falcongilbertgrape1329]

Good luck next year Coach

[@brycedoe5542]

The only reason this comparison was made was to try to sneak in a racist I can feel for a black man.

[@Mark-oy1wv]

Monty chose to play Killian Frickin Hayes over Jaden Ivey for the first half of the season. Somebody remind me of where Killian Hayes landed after he was cut by the Pistons?? Monty is the wrong coach for a young team and the Pistons are a young team

[@HakeemTheDream616]

Monty should never be excused from his 28 game losing streak.

[@bronsonbamnallen1633]

completely forgot Gilbert Arenas

[@ss-dj6ht]

Hey Gottlieb , @CarolineGlick says life in America has become impossible for jews . Is this true?????????

[@202One]

Free mOney $65M = Gone fishing aGain ! 😂🌴😂

[@kevinmoten6566]

Can't stand Monty but I'm glad he took them to the bank

[@greggibson33]

He must've really prayed hard to get fired. 😆

[@HakeemTheDream616]

Why the F are you glad? F him

[@eugenecaldwell9619]

​@@greggibson33😂😂😂😂 I would have done the samething. He probably lost those 28 games in a row on purpose. 😅😅

[@MRoss623]

Pistons, wizards, Hornets

[@antg007]

Monty will be fine. He butchered the Pistons.

[@SojiFro_0]

What a take.

[@keithbalogun1918]

What has his wife's death got to do with his coaching prowess? Doug you are off talking rubbish!!

[@future_teknokrat7585]

He's trying to draw a parallel between bad luck in his personal life vs bad luck in the professional coaching profession, in which you get a large payoff to just go away.

[@patrickficklin]

Chris Paul resurrected the Suns Doug.

[@ShadyMike]

Another trash take from Doug Gotlieb.

[@MRoss623]

GILBERT ARENAS BEYER

[@thechi2848]

Doug you are a terrible commentator and probably will be a terrible coach, you say Monty isn't sad because he's pocketing 65 million, well we feel the same about Caitlin Clark whos also pocketing millions in her own right. Now go coach that sorry green bay team.

[@MRoss623]

Pistons have been horrible since 04
