For a long time, I've thaught Rick Carlisle to be a lame. A nerd, a dork, a dweeb, if you will. A damned good coach, but a little bit of a tight@ss, who wasn't particularly cool in any personable way. Granted, I am judging the man by his public interviews, which is often not the best barometer to judge a person by.
I must say, I like Rick Carlisle a little more for speaking of peyote use in an endearing manner when referring to the greatest basketball coach in history...

And my real question is........how many of you think Phil is really done ??
