To Shaka's credit, he really seems to be letting his basketball guys run the show. (Plus I trust Monte and Wes Wilcox being in his ear more than PDA and ol' Flattop)
Also his daughter seems to be doing a lot more of the day-to-day stuff lately as well.
(I was just trying to be cheeky since apparently Mark Jones brought it up a lot during the broadcast, but I do actually think that's a pretty cool coincidence. And it just builds on the "everything is falling into place" narrative that we've been slowly building since the season started).
