Sam Presti isn't going to wreck his career as a GM by choosing an inferior coach just to help smooth relations. Same goes for Dwayne Casey; he knows this is a business and if his bosses decide to move to OKC, he's going to move right along with them, regardless of whether he'd like to stay in Seattle or not. <BR/><BR/>The columnist that put that piece together - Steve Kelley - is known for just regurgitating old stories when he's too tired to come up with something new. I like to think of his articles as something along the lines of MadLibs.<BR/><BR/>That said, Clay Bennett sounds like a real jerk to me, too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7758702.post-52538586524786619232007-07-04T16:06:00.000-07:002007-07-04T16:06:00.000-07:00TrueHoop linked to an article that speculated the ...TrueHoop linked to an article that speculated the reason Casey wasn't hired is because he LOVES Seattle as a city and wouldn't want to move. <BR/><BR/>Clay Bennett sounds like a real jerk.Ben Q.

I think of him as a calming presence and as a coach who preaches fundamentals. For a young team on the cusp of greatness, those are good qualities to have.Ben Q.
