The Piston's GM ( his name escapes me at the moment ) has stated that he will not stand in Daly's way if he wants and is offered the job. Sixers owner Harold Katz has also mentioned Daly's name. Any comments/opinions? The way it sounded to me is that Billy's assistant has the inside track, and that the players may have put some pressure on the ownership to get rid of Billy.
