I don’t know if everybody necessarily hates the guy. I don’t.
But the whole argument
- Sutter has proven to be a good coach and winner
- AV also is known and proven
- they are both available
- Peters has thus far had one coaching stop and been unsuccessful.
Yes there are excuses. Excuses for being unsuccessful, and hope. Reasoned and rationalized, which is fine. But people really get their backs up about the data which points to the contrary.
What there is not is demonstrated success.
It is quite natural that people question this decision by Treliving.
Especially when he fired Hartley because he had taken the team as far as he could.
Hartley can credibly tell a team what it takes to win in the playoffs. Peters hasn’t been there.
It’s not hate, it’s incredulity
