Episode #6: Should you fire the coach? Dave Berri, sports economist, goes there
It’s a great interview worth a listen. Some fun highlights:
- Dave posits that no coaching could really save Andrea Bargnani
- Yes, Phil Jackson could help the Nets. No, it wouldn’t be enough.
- In basketball, unlike football, knowing what your opponent is going to do isn’t enough to stop them! (He brings up both LeBron James and Karl Malone + John Stockton as examples)
- And, as always, Dave finds a way to bring up his Detroit Lions…
Enjoy!
