I agree it's not a huge deal in isolation, especially since he apologized, but... in context of his pattern of putting certain players in the doghouse, and the complaints that many NBA players don't like him, I think it's certainly a valid data point. Carlisle can be a great NBA coach while also not being the right one for this team, who desperately needs to add young talent around Luka. Again, I've been a RC defender, but IF it's true that he's an obstacle to adding that talent, the choice is extremely simple.
