Desperate move by an ex player to get a gig in the league.

How about actually coaching at a level which will gain you relevant experience for the NBL.

Mackinnon basically wants an Anstey gig but obviously doesn't have the connections so talks to the media... LOL. Yeah good luck Sam.

"Desperate move by an ex player to get a gig in the league."

Hardly. Reporter contacts multiple ex-Bullets for reaction to team's re-entry to the league. Asks the player who is actively coaching whether he would be interested in coaching should he be approached.

Players responds by saying the consortium no doubt already has someone in mind, but "never say never."

No 'desperate move' there dude. None whatsoever.

shootingblanks....you are trying to talk logic and sense to a bunch of keyboard warriors who have never achieved anything in their life....they jump on here to tear people down and try and make some sense of their useless life..don't waste your breathe !

Good luck to Sam or whoever gets the gig...from a 6ers perspective, it will be great to have that rivalry finally back !

if he didn't want the gig why would he say yes then

saying yes with no adequate experience is embarrassing.
