Gee, and He Still Looks So Lifelike

OBITUARY OF AN NBA COACH

LOS ANGELES--Don Casey, 52, known as the L.A. Clippers’ head coach, was victim of a thoughtless conspiracy that resulted in his dismissal from the ranks of NBA coaches.

Casey will be remembered for his turning around of a pathetic situation, with some unprecedented victories at home and on the road. Also, he should be honored for his ability to communicate with and motivate the team’s 5-year-old head case, Benoit Benjamin.

Don Casey: Another victim, another scapegoat. May he leave in peace.
