I agree wrt to Bland.
As for Dotson, I don’t see it as quitting. No more than I’d agree that Skat quit by moving on.
Far as I can tell, Dot just didn’t agree with how he was being used compared to his usage under the previous staff. So he moved on to a place where he was used similarly as 2018 and his numbers reflect it.
Taylor’s goals were clearly different than Dot’s. Taylor was coaching to win titles while Dot was playing to advance to the next level. Both ended up getting what they wanted.
As a fan of the program, I personally didn’t agree with Dot or Skat’s choices to leave, but it was their choice to make. Not mine.
As you essentially said, “next man up”. The Hornets moved on and succeeded w/o Dot and they’ll likely do the same w/o Skat.
I’m excited to see what Fulcher, Tau-Tolliver, Moleni, Burnett, Borders and co. can do next season and beyond.
Agreed and well said.
Also curious if the folks with the "quit" sentiments towards players carry that same sentiment to coaches who leave for better opportunities.
