Becky Hammon Becomes First Woman to Head Coach an NBA Game | NowThis

[@davidellis5141]

Very cool for her & she is highly regarded as a future head coach. Becky knows hoops.

[@dannytoldyaso992]

No she’s not, go read the Spurs report they gave to the Trailblazers. 🤣

It was earned, not given.

@@RetroShark360 Sorry..I didn't mean that way..I know there's female BB teams..I believe, it doesn't matter what race, what gender, if your good at the job, you should be there and it seems the rest of the world is catching up with this. She seems to be an awesome Woman. If she's that good she should be coaching a NBA team...I'm interested in seeing the game now because she's there...Make sense? It feels balanced...Smiles*

[@backtotheoldway6964]

@@becauseiam7915 You're not so much interested in seeing the game though, as you are in seeing her. We have to get to a point where little girls with the potential to be Becky are interested in seeing and playing the game for the game and nothing else. That's what Becky's life tells us. You have to love the game to know the game well enough to beat other people at it.

She only coached one game because the male coach was ejected! It's ridiculous that this has been the only way there's been a female coach. It's 2020!

[@tubawarlordwong9408]

[@BlackOwnedDollars]

Ridiculous how?? In a men's league women deserve to have coaching spots over the various men who played??

[@MettaWorldPeace21]

Lmao classic feminist.

[@XenoMarcc]

that male coach is also arguably the greatest bball coach of all time so of course he’s the head coach. He’s also been mentoring Becky a while so she’ll be great when Pop lets her take the reigns full time

Wow she coached what a half a ducking game? Who cares? Is this as important as the 1st female to play college football and kick in a game. Because that girl kick a whopping 20-25 yard grass sizzler. It was groundbreaking. Forget the fact that with a week of training probably 75% of the male population would be able to kick it further. Women need to just keep doing what they are good at. That being whatever men tell them to
