Steve Nash Brooklyn Nets hiring slammed as ‘white privilege’ – Wide World of Sports
Legend with no experience handed plum gig
The Brooklyn Nets stunned the NBA world on Friday morning with the hiring of two-time MVP Steve Nash to be head coach.
Nash is an all-time great NBA point guard, but he has no real coaching experience leaving the US sporting world shocked over the hiring since he was never mentioned as a potential candidate.
Several other coaches didn’t get a look in with championship winner Tyronn Lue, highly respected Mark Jackson and seasoned assistant Sam Cassell all passed up by Brooklyn.
