The reason ML is still saying that DA is a great coach is because its what he believes is true. Notice, he didnt say that DA was the best HEAD coach, only coach. And Its true many around the league think DA is a great coach (DC). I think ML was also accounting for DA's 16 or so year tenure as a DC in his sweeping statement. Occam's Razor would suggest this instead of some narcissistic conspiracy theory.
You're probably right. I HOPE you're right. ML just seems hellbent on defending DA's legacy, at any expense. I've never seen anything like it before, and it makes me wonder why he's so dug into that position....like a tick. I feel like I'm being gaslit. ML telling me "these aren't the droids you're looking for"....but I'm looking at the droids, and I'm looking at the photo of the droids in question, and damnit.....they look identical. You may NOT move along!
