Yeah, the biggest issue is KP, and that's obvious now. SO, people's current temperatures on Carlisle are probably informed primarily by how they view that failure.
If you look at KP and see a star being wasted, you probably think Carlisle needs to go.
If you look at KP and see a guy who just flat out didn't or couldn't bring it this year, then you probably feel pretty sympathetic towards Carlisle about the situation he was in this season.

1) I am trading KP this summer, period end of story, and overturning as much of the roster as I need to upgrade as many starting spots around Luka as possible.
2) I am going into 2022 with a very close eye on the coaching while gauging interest around the league in the DAL head coaching position.
This is fair.
Carlisle's number one goal has to be developing a great working relationship with Luka, if he hasn't already. I think one of the things people don't want to believe but that is starting to seem likely to me is that Luka and KP simply don't like each other very much. If true, that might've created a triangle that made it even harder for Carlisle/KP to successfully work together.
